00:00So many committees, given so much to the town, like our late husband Michael.

00:07Friends of the Hegzonia Hospital, about which he wrote the definitive history.

00:13Meals on Wheels, which I think is where I remember coming across you on a first occasion in your car.

00:19EU3A, it's a local history group.

00:23Hegzonia players.

00:25Fay and family have provided three generations of participants, players, musicians,

00:33and inspired so many people in Hegzonia to join the players.

00:38It's a wonderful legacy, I want to thank.

00:41Member of so many choirs, I think the greatest descant voice in the whole of Hegzonia actually.

00:49Absolutely wonderful.

00:52Our Lady of Hawthorne's Church, again a great member, a great participant, a great supporter and a great love.

01:00More recently, an active ukulele player, which she's becoming to start with.

01:07We look forward to seeing her on the stage here one day.

01:11There's hardly anything that's taken place in this town over so many years in which Fay hasn't been involved.

01:17Sorry, I've probably missed quite a few, but I'm trying my best.

01:21You've given so much to the town, and of course you were a reporter on the Asian Bear Herald,

01:26so your experience is legion.

01:29Anyway, it was the view of our panel, unanimously, that you should be awarded a medal of Fay,

01:36and we'd like you very much to receive it tonight from her.
