Tribute
Pereira In a tribute to the late Wiseman Joseph Edmund Pereira (see p91), PETER TROUGHTON writes: Edmund, as he was always known, originally registered in Britain in 1959 before working for Hawse & McGeorge in East Africa, initially in Kenya and then at a later stage in Kampala, Uganda.
The regime of Idi Amin resulted in Edmund and Lucy moving in 1958 to Enfield, where he took up a position as a pharmacy branch manager with what was the the Enfield Highway Co-operative Society.
Several promotions followed, culminating in his appointment as an area manager for National
Co-operative Chemists, a position he held until his retirement in 1999.
Since then he had worked regularly as a locum pharmacist in Essex, Hertfordshire and Greater London.
I know I speak for all of his colleagues, customers and fellow health professionals when I say it was a privilege to have known Edmund.
A wicked sense of humour, a genuine care for others and an ever-present courtesy are characteristics that marked Edmund as special and which we shall all miss.
Deepest sympathy goes from all his friends to Lucy, Rebecca, David and family.
