It is with great sadness to announce the passing of our beautiful Daphne Stone. A mother, Nan, and great Nan to us. Daphne absolutely loved coming in to the cafe, her favourites were, quiche, soup and sausage rolls with a cuppa. She will be greatly missed by us all. You always brought a big smile where ever you went, and we loved hearing all your stories. Rest in peace Daphne 🪽💔🥀
