Monica Ball, owner of the Calamondin
affix, has sadly passed away in the Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham in the early hours of
this morning, 29 July 2022. Monica was
78 years old and had not been enjoying the best of health for a few years. Over her lifetime Monica had owned a few Cairns
and had been a familiar face around the show ring. Her latest Cairn, Ross, Lentrica Let’s
Dance at Calamondin, won 2 CC’s. He was her constant companion and she loved
him deeply. Monica enjoyed gardening and enjoyed visits to
her local garden centre to admire the plants and have a coffee and a bite to
eat. She also enjoyed her annual
visits to Builth Wells in her camper van, where she
met up with friends. Monica had 2 stints on the Midland Cairn Terrier
Club committee. She helped the club enormously, taking on distribution of The
Compendium of Cairn Terrier Records and latterly acting as Cup Steward. She will be sadly missed at the Club’s
annual Fun Day where she helped Brenda organise the fun classes. Monica leaves no family but her close friends in
the Cairn and Westie worlds and of course, her friend and neighbour Lynda
will miss her greatly. Linda Firth |
