Ann Strong

After 25 years of loyal and extremely diligent service to the company it is with some regret that we have to announce the departure of Ann to pastures new. And Pastures new it will be, as Ann and husband Gary have decided to follow one of their lifelong ambitions to open a Bistro/Bar in Fuengirola, Spain. There are probably few words that can describe Ann's contribution to the company over the many years other than to say she will be sorely missed by all of us colleagues and customers alike. Her shoes will be difficult to step into and we now take on the onerous task of finding someone to fill the void that Ann will leave in early April. Everyone at W.E.Dowds wish both Ann and Gary every success in their new venture.
