Thinking of Judy

It was very moving to read about Sharon and Murray

Major’s experiences on the Wahine, with Sharon having to twice throw her baby into the arms of strangers. I have always remembered the story of another little baby on that terrible day because her father also handed her to a stranger in a life raft, saying, “In case we don’t make it, her name is Judy Bull.” I was just 17 at the time, but that really impacted on me. Every year when the Wahine anniversary comes around, I think of Judy Bull and hope she has had a happy life. C Gratton, Auckland
