I used to work with Heather in the 80's-90's at Speedy Messenger and then became Starship Group of Companies ( now Starship Logistics). Heather truly loved knitting and made a sweater for me. Some colleagues found her serious but I found her friendly and very helpful . Thanks for the memories Heather and rest in peace in God's Kingdom! 🙏 ❤️ My deepest sympathy to her loved ones.

I just heard. I am so sad to lose a friend, although I only saw her on Saturdays. We would laugh at so many things. I wish we had seen each other more.
My condolences to the family, Heather will be missed.
