  3. I have such fond memories of visiting the farm with Kev and Joan. Joan always immaculately dressed. Ginger fluff in the cake tin and smelling of white diamonds. I will forever hold these memories close to my heart. Be at peace now with Kev. Catherine

  5. I had the privilege of doing Joan’s grocery shopping for the past 5 to 6 years and all throughout the pandemic. IGA staff, past and present all loved speaking to her on the phone each week. We learnt all about her likes and dislikes and those of her much loved pets.
    Condolences to the McAlpine family.
    May she rest peacefully
