Janet, just found out tonight the news that your Joe has gone - we are gutted and thinking of you now - You & Joe have shared so many years and so many lovely times together. Joe was a stalwart of the Smithfield workforce here for so many years and am sure his workmates will honour his many years of work.
A very fine man and we know you will always be proud of your man.
See you soon
