A fitting tribute to the much loved '˜Eggy' Law
Chris attended the Pavestone Centre, a Vocational and Leisure Rehabilitation service, under the Northern Health and Social Care Trust, for many years.
Although Chris had a severely disabling condition, he took part in many activities at Pavestone. Chris sadly passed away in June last year, at his funeral his mother arranged for donations, in lieu of flowers, to be given to the Pavestone Centre. A sum of £300 was donated, and the idea was suggested to develop the garden in memory of Chris.

Hide AdRhoda remarked that perhaps best of all was Chris’s attitude: “Although often in pain he never complained; was always so grateful, witty and full of fun,” she said.
“Chris Law will always be missed, but this Garden will keep his memory alive,” told Rhoda.
