If Ruth is still alive, they would be the last two living members of that team. My mother continues to live in Preston at a retirement home.tapit911https://www.blogger.com/profile/18300834046348099561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5906875144542272320.post-35970916081685594432009-08-24T16:56:12.620-05:002009-08-24T16:56:12.620-05:00Anonymous, I don't know who you are, but I am ...Anonymous, I don't know who you are, but I am extremely impressed!

Total unrelenting domination. When you hear some of the stories, it will completely shatter any image you may have had of women playing hockey in those times.
