Mrs Molly Daniell, as she was better known, remained very active till a year ago when she had a second fall, fracturing her other hip not long after recovering from the first replacement procedure.
Ma'am Daniell, to Martinians, led a busy life after her husband's death in the late 1970s(?) involving herself in Anglo-Indian community affairs and till the end oversaw the well-being of the Dorothy Crosthwaite Homes.
