I was invited by the Scout Association to a reception for her. When introduced to her I was about to mention that she had visited my family in 1931 when I was a child and commenced giving her my maiden name - Anne Snow. She interrupted me and said: "Then you are Charles and Una Snow's daughter and I remember visiting your lovely home overlooking the sea. I also remember that enormous room filled with Scouters and Guiders, all sitting on the floor and we talked and talked".

Just imagine all the places in the world that she has visited in the intervening years, and all the people she had met, and yet she recalled without any hesitation, that one occasion. What a truly amazing memory she had!
