The signpost of where people have been, often come from the parents who leave their imprint in this world that others notice. Off-spring who leave a positive impression, have parents who instilled values and qualities that enable them in life. Time passes but some things remain strong in the mind and it is important to acknowledge these when a forum like this enables a window of opportunity. Although I barely knew Mavis, her sad loss remains as a beacon from which the children and grandchildren can shine through.
Geraldine, I was always pleased and thankful for the wonderful friendship that you and my sister Susan shared throughout your school years together. Your smile lit up the room, you were a delight.
Rosemary, you left a lasting impact, of which you are totally unaware, along with two other significants, whom I have be able to share with. I can now tell you also, that you made a significant impression on who I am today. At school, I observed with admiration your values and strengths~ modesty, loyalty, thoughtfulness, authenticity, fairness, tolerance, dedication, athleticism, inner & outer beauty and self-respect.
The intangible cultural heritage left by the passing, most recently of Mavis, are signs to many people that your parents positively played their part in influencing your family and consequently humanity. All the very best to both of you and your families.
