I have fond memories (now, not then) of working with Lena on the farm stripping tobacco, picking cucumbers and hoeing the early crops. It was hard work and at the time I didn’t appreciate just how hard she was working. She was raising a large family, managing the household and working on the farm at the same time. She was a strong woman who always spoke her mind. I remember her favourite song was Spanish Eyes which she regularly commented on when we were stripping tobacco ( sands, brights, and tips). Our sincerest condolences to all of her family. Jerome Blondeel
