I was so very very sad to hear of Ardyce's passing. It's been 25 years since we moved from Rugby, but while we lived there I had the pleasure of working with Ardyce and becoming acquainted with many of the Bundy's and Volk's. Ardyce was a wonderful lady and she will surely be missed. Our sympathies to all Ardyce's family and friends.
