Thinking of you all. Remember back in the day when you visited or we visited with a flagon and scones and the laughs we all had and the games of cards that they enjoyed playing.

A very special Auntie now at peace. Lots of wonderful memories of you. You were the only person I know that could cook the most amazing sponge. So delicious. Thinking of all the family at this sad time.
