Good Morning James,
I hope you and Luanne are both well.
After a few days to reflect and gather my thoughts,I just wanted to say a
huge ‘Thank You’ to you both for making a very emotional occasion so
beautiful and serene and more or less a perfect ‘goodbye’ if there ever can
be…..
To my adorable mummy and daddy.
I thank you both for your compassion and understanding and kindness towards
us all on what must be quite a difficult situation for you both to
experience.
I have not stopped telling people how beautiful it all was.
Whilst writing,I wonder if you could forward me a copy of the statistics of
their final resting place please?
Once again thank you so very much.
Suzanne and family.
