Miss Yvonne West

Much missed. Such a wonderful service to the life of the village.

Mr and Mrs Jamie & Jo Hay

So many memories of dear Yvonne from day one of her arriving in Box. Always quietly caring with a smile for everyone and a wave if you drove through the village. She will be sorely missed. From the Cook family.

Ms Gillian Cook

Such a truly good & loving person that we were blessed to have as an integral part of Box village life . She’s missed daily xxxx

Miss Suzanne Thomson

Such fond messages of Yvonne, always so positive. Box will not be the same without her.

Mr and Mrs Iain & Juliet Silvester

Dearest Yvonne, So glad to have spent time with you you were a funny generous kind supportive and thoughtful person full of mischief and a terror to the odd unsuspecting customer. Now you’re gone but I feel we’re still connected every time I sit down to do the paper delivery bills you’re there with me. I’ll raise a cup of tea to you and remember you fondly always xxx

Mrs Bron Walton

Yvonne you and your family gave a lot to Box Village and you will be greatly missed.

Mr Adrian Dingle

We will miss her cheery disposition and sense of humour, after many years in the Post Office and latterly out dog walking

Mr tom & Sarah fitzpatrick

Dear Yvonne, to all that came in contact with you it felt, like you were our Grandma or Mother in such a lovely way and as others have said the wonderful “puns” of “ Sorry we are closed!/doubling the cost!/we don’t sell that!/and here comes trouble !” ,they became part of each visit and everybody enjoyed that so much.Some people leave this world and are forgotten over the years but you were the very heart of Box and the Post Office and Box will never be the same again without you . I’m so sorry Yvonne I will miss the Church service for you ,I accidentally double booked going away but I bet you will have a “pun” in Heaven about that!!! . God Bless you rest in peace
