Benita Moore used to work at the library, a real character in her own right! I bet one of me Dads friends Bertha Booth, might have been on the video, though i've never seen it. She was one of the old characters of Ossie and i know Benita "interviewed" her for one of her books. Both passed away some time back.

Best Regards - Taggy

I think that Benita had a sister, can't remember her name, but I'm sure she lived near where Rindi lives now.

Re: 'All Eyes on Ossie' DVD.

I have got several of Benita Moore's books and thoroughly enjoyed them. Is the Winnie Hogan that is mentioned the same Mrs Hogan who used to teach enviromental studies at Mount Carmel?

Re: 'All Eyes on Ossie' DVD.

So was I right about Winnie Hogan teaching enviromental studies. Did she pass on as well as Benita Moore? I used to love Mrs Hogan lesson she was always so interesting. If it is the same Mrs Hogan what did she do as I seem to think she left Mount Carmel even when I was there 77-82.

You were there at the same time as me. Although I was at the Paddock site when I started then it joined with Holy Family in my third year.

Would I know you?
