It was just over 23 years ago that I met a gentle soul Christine, at hydrotherapy where we took our little charges. Since then, its been at E Hayes where I was always greeted with a smile and time for a catch-up. Christine didn’t only have time for a chat, she knew virtually every aspect of the gift department and even when flat tack, she kept that lovely smile. A gentle soul that will be forever missed and forever remembered.

So very sorry for your loss Bruce and family. Will be thinking of you all today as you say farewell to your lovely wife and mum. I was hoping to come along to pass on my condolences again but unfortunately can’t make it after all. Take care 💕

Thinking of you all. She was such a lovely lady with a beautiful smile taken far too young. I always enjoyed her chats while Bruce and Christine walked past

So sad to hear of Christine’s passing.
I met her when she worked at Modfoot in Tay Street many years ago and followed her great customer service to E Hayes & Sons. Always so very helpful, she had a beautiful smile and spoke very lovingly of her Family and always took an interest in people.
Thinking of her Family & other Friends, she will be missed
