I´m very sorry to learn of Iola´s passing. I worked with her at James Dunlop in 1985/86 as a 17 year old office junior. She was wonderful to work with, always full of good advice and ready for a laugh. I´ve been living in Australia for 33 years but always loved to catch up with Iola whenever I came home, sometimes at her favourite Maacas.
Iola, my dear friend, you will be missed.
