Andy the manager sends his thoughts too! Dawn, we are gonna miss your terrible jokes! Lots of groans there! Some would say they were Dad jokes! We enjoyed many a time talking about the virtues and glories of Monty Python's Flying Circus, and regaling many a sketch to each other! Dawn, remember the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?!! The T-shirt is a treasured possession! And we had many a discussion about Star Wars, usually on May the Fourth!! You were a brilliant support worker. You were one of the first I employed when I first came to Risborough, and you stayed!! In fact for 10 years!! Not bad for the Newbie. You always considered yourself to be the newbie!! I don't think you realised just how good you were. You were so person centred, putting the people we support first at all times. You did so much with them, and they all have a treasured memory of you and what you enabled them to do. Concerts here, shows there, and many a sporting event like the British Grand Prix, or watching Arsenal, despite being a Leeds fan!! The sacrifices you made!!! Dawn, we are really going to miss you. taken far too soon..... Much Love, Andy Reeve-Smith (service manager at Mencap) xxxx
