Farewell to an Angel

  I Know I'll Never Find Another You Sung by The Seekers in 2013 (L to R: Keith Potger, Bruce Woodley, Judith Durham, Athol Guy)  Song written for them in 1964 by Tom Springfield in who also produced their  original recording  of the song that year. I was very saddened by the news of the death of Judith Durham (3 July 1943 - 5 August 2022). She was less than three months younger than me - 1943 was a vintage year! - and the youngest of The Seekers, all of them from Melbourne, Australia. Judith was from Essendon, the Melbourne suburb where the Columbans have been for 100 years. This song became the anthem of Worldwide Marriage Encounter ( Philippines ,  Ireland ). Morningtown Ride Written by Malvina Reynolds This is one of my favourite songs by The Seekers. According to a comment below the video from a man who was a child in it, the boys were from St Vincent de Paul Boys' Home, South Melbourne, and the two girls with Judith from St Vincent's Children's Home, Black Rock.
