A torrid into tranquil

time thankfully... one needed a lot of support from my own inner family, to support my God Mother/Auntie in the loss of her second husband. I have the surrealness of being one of three cousins widowed early in time ... The silent understanding only we know ...

.... I failed to attend another previous funeral one time in Southampton, even booking the coach ... I eventually managed to get to this area December last. This to celebrate one of a few Diamond wedding anniversary within the maternal and paternal families ....

I actually found it easier than I thought I be ...only I nearly went emotionally, when the surving brother could not finish his recounting of times with his brother ... 

A beautiful service in a spacious church and chapel ... The flowers and service themed to a second wedding that took place in the very church. Single blooms only today and donations to The Alzheimer's Society ...  

A week or so of zig zagging across the English counties to a very satisfying Saturday day today. It is the first of many funerals outside the immediate family I have managed to actually attend ....
