It is with great sadness that I have to inform you of the death of Joan Meyrick who was a member of your committee for many years. Her prefix was Tablin and her Champion dog Tablin Rolle was very successful at Crufts in 1976 when he won best Dog, Best of breed and was Reserve in the Group. Also in 1991 Joan was asked to judge the Cairns at the Centenary Crufts show when Mrs Proudlock was unable to attend. A very treasured memory for her. Sadly as age and ill health took their toll, she entered a care home where she was looked after until her passing on April 10th on her way to her 90th birthday.

 

I suppose there are very few of her generation left in Cairns these days but those I was privileged to meet were real doggy characters.
