Our memories of Trish are from the time that Trish and Chuck relocated to East Lake Woodlands. Trish and Chuck were running their business in Oldsmar, Warren and Lara were in High School and they were all embracing the Florida way of life. Trish was a regular at the Tennis Club where we were in charge of the Tennis Club and ran a Tennis Academy which attracted young players from many parts of the world. Trish was a mainstay on the courts, whilst Warren attended the junior programs. Trish loved the interaction with the youngsters and supported our operation by hosting a number of students, some for a week or two and others who attended school. Trish, Chuck, Warren and Lara touched the lives of kids from Japan, Tennessee, Australia and European students. Being Aussies living in the US we had a common thread with Trish. After our departure for Louisiana, Trish took over the organization of a major Charity Tournament we ran annually. We always admired Trish's zest for life and adventure. Chuck was such a wonderful partner. At the time he was struggling with his eyesight and loved to watch Trish participate when he was able to be exposed to light. She is an inspiration to all of us. Our thoughts are with Warren and Lara. As we say in Australia, Vale Trish! (Farewell Trish)
