I have only just found out that Jacoba had died in 2020. I had some wonderful conversations with her in the past - and although much time has passed I want to send my condolences to Coral who I remember from Ballet days - and of course the whole family. My mother Beryl Hatherley, her friend died 2 years before, at 96. And my Dad, Laurence, around 20 years before. A lovely woman, and an end of an era. Bless her.

My condolences to Coco's family, at the loss of their special mother / grandmother/ great-grandmother.
Coco was a very special neighbour and friend to me, of 20+ years' duration.
I have many fond memories of having a cuppa with Coca, whilst she 'recalled' her lovely memories of her life, as well as discussing other topics too, e.g. Quantum theory.... et al.
I also miss Coco regularly walking past by my home, always greeting me and stopping for a chat,... when I happened to be in the garden.
God Bless - Coco.
