Mary Jenkins passed on a couple of weeks back at the age of 73 from lung cancer.  She did not smoke but lived in an area where a factory is belching allegedly toxic dusts which no one seems able to deal with satisfactorily. I went to the memorial service. There was no funeral as such as she had kindly donated her body to medical science. I hope they use it well.  Mary was a small  energetic WelshOz woman and lived with her quiet husband not far from Fremantle. She did a degree at a late age and taught at TAFE til she retired when she concentrated on local issues. I used to bump into her in the Greens office where I was using up all their paper for the Environment Centre handouts and she was volunteering.  She was very often outraged about something and doing her best to fix it.  She missed out on being Mayor of Cockburn by 100 votes which was a shame as she was well suited to being a Mayor. This toon appeared in the paper just after the memorial service and went down well. There is a big gap in Spearwood Residents Association and the local press. We could do with more women like Mary who CARE and do something about it.
