It will be with deep regret that Hawera people will learn of the death this morning of Miss Joyce Grindrod, daughter of Mr and Mrs G. Grindrod. Miss Grindrod, who was only 17 years of age, was very well liked by all with whom she came in contact, and about four years ago creditably filled the role of the Hawera school candidate for the Queen Carnival.
