Peter and Ann, I first met you two and Joy when you took over the ownership of Love and Care childhood centre, which you renamed Rainbow, in Lemon Street. That is a few years ago now. I remember Joy as a well presented woman. I will be thinking of you and your families on Friday, and of the impact working with you has had on me. Hold onto your memories - laugh and cry as you honour Joys life. Laurel.
