It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Poppet. She joined BoneSmart on September 5, 2011 when she had a hip replacement and joined staff as a Nutritional Advisor a couple of years later. Her special expertise was in nutrition and before long, she had created the excellent Nutrition for pre and post surgery in the Library which has been such a mine of information for members since.
It was with great anticipation that we looked forward to her retirement as she and her husband John had so many plans to improve and expand the forum. However, it was not to be as about a year ago, she was diagnosed with bowel cancer which turned out to be quite aggressive and resulted in her absence from the forum since July last year. Her husband just informed us that she had died yesterday, the 22nd February.
She will be greatly missed by all who knew her here, by her colleagues on staff and especially by those with whom she had an especially close relationship. For my part, I'm only sad I never got to meet her and John in real life.
Sleep sweetly in God's presence, dear Poppet. We all love you and miss you already.
You will live on in your Nutritional Library here forever.
