This is an awful long shot. but I thought if anyone out there in the world can help me a 'genie' might just be able to
I am trying to locate friends who we have lost touch with . They are Marilyn and Terry Ward. They had a son called Andrew and a daughter Rebecca. Both the children schooled in Australia
In 1995-98 we were their neighbors in Madang PNG.
The Wards moved to Port Moresby and it is there that we 'lost' them'
Both of them were active within the Seventh day Adventist Church who I am waiting to hear back from.
Terry worked for Fisheries in PNG as a financial controller and Marilyn was wizz with needlecraft.
They had a home in Budgiewoi and/or Maroochydore possbly both
Here's hoping

Does it ring any bells
:-D

The kindness of the 'genies' out there is very much appreciated. Thanks to you who replied. I've sent an email to Terry at the fishers, now I just have to be patient a bit longer. Will keep you posted <3
