I'm looking for Wilfriede Kelemen or an interested surviving family member. My late Father Monty Menhennett was a Radio Announcer in Merredin in 1957 and apparently he
made our new Australians feel so welcome and so moved that Wilfriede wrote a lovely letter to my Dad, which he kept, and I just read. It's a nice letter. I was wondering if someone would like me to either scan it and email it to them or I could just pop it in mail.
