    I have so many fond memories of Mrs. Latham both as a young girl whom she led and as a young woman who stood beside me while I led. One of my favourite memories is when we went to Our Chalet in 1982 and Mrs. Latham let another Pathfinder and myself go onto the next stop on the boat by ourselves! We were 14 in a strange country and she trusted and believed in us enough to spend an hour by ourselves. I will always cherish the many memories of our time spent together, Mrs. Latham helped me become the woman I am today! Sending my love and condolences to Mrs. Lathamâ??s family and friends, she will be missed.
