Funeral Notice
I worked with Joan in Personnel Division at the SEC. She was a single Mum working to keep and raise her son Peter. That doesn’t seem unusual now but it was back in 1960’s. She was a very organised and proficient secretary and a mother figure to the young girls she worked with. Always immaculately presented.

I know life was difficult for her. Losing her only son and suffering her stroke. She was always cheerful in spite of that. Rest in Peace Joan . Sincere condolences to her family.Joan was a neighbour of my mother, Thelma Robins, in Moe. They had many enjoyable bus trips together . Joan was a good, supportive friend. May she rest in peace.
