Goodbye Nan

Today I share the sad news with you that 2 weeks ago I lost my nan


Today we will attend her funeral and I will honour her memory by giving the eulogy


I'm pleased to say she leaves behind many happy memory like our family holidays

I am so sorry for your loss, what a hard time.

I, too, was the gandchild that gave the eulogy at my grandfather's funeral and it helped a LOT to look at my cousin and brother while I was reading it.

You'll be a credit.

hey dude, as you know I will be thinking of you today. You know where I am if you need me, and I hope to see you tomorrow - eating may not make the world a nicer place but it can seem like it for a short space of time XXX

there is always room for you on my sofa XXX (even if you may have to share it with more bodies as time progresses lol) XXX

Victoria dear, my deepest sympathy. Such a lovely lady. She really has a remarkable resemblance to my Mom's auntie who is 90. I am so very sorry for the loss I know that you were a wonderful grand-daughter to her. Love to you,Lori
