Popular receptionist retires after 28 years at accountants
But now Evelyn has retired, and as a token of her employers and colleagues’ gratitude for all her hard work, she was treated to a ride in a stretch limousine and lunch at the prestigious Cooden Beach Hotel.
Bexhill office director Liz Densley said: “Evelyn always ensured that everyone received a warm and friendly welcome when telephoning or visiting the office.

Familiar to staff at Honey Barrett’s offices in Eastbourne and newly acquired Wadhurst, too, Evelyn was wished a long and happy retirement by colleagues at all three locations.
Now she aims to spend more time with husband, Philip, and their family, as well as pursuing a leisure interest in genealogy.
