In today´s copy of the Taranaki Daily News via Legacy.com I saw the death notice for Joyce Murphy.
In that notice there were three names that I recall from FDMC days... Kerry, Barry and Mark.
To them especially, and to all others who mourn her passing I extend sincere sympathy.
With her death the final curtain has now come down, on so much that has been part of your own lives, leaving no doubt many happy memories of the years that have gone all too quickly.
May the Good Lord welcome Joyce home with his arms outstretched, and with your father Des may they both be forever at peace.
