I am sorry to report that Joyce Bannister passed away on the afternoon of 25th June 2016.\u00a0 She was in bed and was very calm.\u00a0 A good neighbour and a friend were with her at the time.\u00a0 She was 91 and had lung cancer.<\/p>\n
Joyce was the XYL of Roy Bannister, G4GPX (SK) and both were supporters of amateur radio, especially Worthing and District Amateur Radio Club (WADARC).<\/p>\n
Even after Roy passed away, Joyce remained a member of WADARC and took a keen interest in Club affairs.<\/p>\n
Joyce was a very bright lady and in her later years, managed a computer very well, especially using email to keep in touch with us all.<\/p>\n
Although Joyce never applied for an amateur radio licence, her interest in amateur radio continued and in the last 2 years, Joyce purchased a 2m\/70cm handheld transceiver so that she could keep up-to-date with local operating.<\/p>\n
Many, many people have fond memories of Joyce and she will be sadly missed by all who knew her.<\/p>\n
