East Maitland RSL Life Memberships

Ms JENNY AITCHISON (Maitland—Minister for Regional Transport and Roads)—I wish to congratulate four East Maitland RSL NSW Sub-Branch members on their recent tributes. Auxiliary Life membership is an exceptional honour awarded to members with a minimum of 15 years continuous honorary service as an auxiliary member and to those who have also given at least 10 years outstanding service to the branch. Earlier this year Life Membership was awarded to Narelle Sattler and Lorraine Rutherford, I congratulate them both on their deserved recognition. Among the valuable work done by RSL NSW Auxiliaries across the state is the crafting handmade quilts, known as Thank You for Your Service quilts, to recognise the dedication of past and present serving members. These quilts were recently presented to Albert Ditton, Sub-Branch secretary Judy Gargosky and Sub-Branch President Tony Mulquiney. Congratulations to the members of East Maitland RSL Sub-Branch on these awards, we are thankful for your service.
