Joy will always be here with me. I loved her. She was my dearest friend and such a loving friend and fun colleague to work with over the years. Joy was well loved by her wonderful family who were everything to her. Martyn, you were such a wonderful caring son. Joy really loved and appreciated all you did for her and she unwaveringly adored all her boys. Despite the struggles she had towards the end of her life, she was always `with it´ and loved a laugh or a story (if she could stay awake)!

Hi Martyn,
Joy died a happy woman knowing that she had such a loving son.
Happy memories of Joy teaching us upstairs in Milner House at Nelson Girls Prep Dept. Joy was such a glamour girl and remained so all her life. It was my absolute pleasure to have been invited by her when I was doing Interior Decorating to her home and yes of course yellow the colour of Joy was included and watermelon the colour of euthsiasm, energy and love for life. Fond memories.
Keep up the coffees at the Suter and Bobby Franks.

My thoughts are with you guys. Joy was a special woman and always so much fun, always a giggle to be had with her and great memories of partying with my parents and the old Nelson gang back in the day. Sending you hugs, Rob Orsbourn

So sorry to see your mum has passed away. Your mum was a very lovely lady. And along with your Dad two very special people in my life. From the age of 17 years I was lucky to work for them both. And have very happy memories.
Thinking of you Martyn,Andrew, Peter and your families
