Joyce Frigot

Joyce Frigot's family has released a short statement.

The family of a Christchurch woman who died in a crash on the A35 at Holmesley last month have paid tribute to her.

They've told us that 61 year old Joyce Frigot was taken too quickly from them and will be sadly missed by all that knew her.

A 52-year-old man from Southampton was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving following the accident.

He has been bailed until August 30 pending further enquiries.

In a statement, the family said: "Joyce was a lovely friendly lady who was full of fun and loved making cakes for friends and loved ones.

"She was a loving wife to Dennis, mum to Shane, Teresa and Sandra, nan to Matthew, Mary, Dennis, Courtney, Jamie-Lee, Joshua and Great Grandma to Lily-Rose.

"She was taken too quickly from us and will be sadly missed by all that knew her.”

Mrs Frigot’s funeral will be held at Bournemouth Crematorium tomorrow at 1.30pm.

Police are still appealing for witnesses to the collision on the 17th of June between a red Vauxhall Astra and a silver Vauxhall Insignia, in particular the driver of a mid-to-light blue Volvo estate which was travelling along the A35 at Holmesley when the crash happened shortly before 10am.

Anyone with information is asked to call Sergeant Andy Lynch at Hampshire Constabulary’s Road Death Investigation Team on 101, quoting Operation Armel.
