I taught with Prue at Chelmsford School in the 1980s. Students & staff were all very fond of her. Her coaching of the girls teams was excellent and they gained superb results. She was a big softie perhaps best demonstrated by her leaving the heating on at home in the winter for the dog whilst she was at work. I know she had been struggling with her health for sometime but she was stoic & cheerful. I will always remember her with affection.
