August 12, 2026 at 9:45 amFond memories of our “up-the-road” neighbours, Joan and Frank. The Grays, Boldings, Skerritts and Pickersgills were great neighbours for many years. Joan and Frank were staunch members of the St. Joseph’s Choir. Sincere thoughts for the family. RIP Joan

August 12, 2026 at 11:54 amA lovely person with a great smile, that made you feel happy. It was worth being good, if the reward was one of the delicious, hand made fruit ice blocks. From the McBride Avenue fruit shop. A childhood memory.
Then there was the music, bringing such joy with the Choir. Easter isn’t the same without Joan and Franks contribution at St. Joseph’s.
Thoughts and prayers for The Family always. Remembering a very special lady.
