My deepest sympathy to Poke's family. I had the pleasure of knowing Poke through work - she helped me many times over the years with pricing and other shipping issues which she always did with a cheerful attitude. She will certainly be missed by myself and everyone else whose life she has touched. May the Lord be with her family, friends and co-workers.
