From Peter Allan:
This is very sad news – I was Jann’s manager when she joined OTC. This was in a marketing section called “cashless calling”. She was there when the one and only Telephone Calling Card OTC ever produced was launched. We ended up having Kylie and Dannie Minogue as customers. She was a true professional and went on to have a great career with Singtel, then Optus. Above all she was a very gentle and beautiful person.

Hi Peter
Yes I heard the sad news just Monday
I hired Jann into Optus to work in my dept and she was a total professional. Very sad and a grim reminder of our mortality.
Cheers
Bob
