John, Jo and Toni.  Thanks to you all for helping us with the celebration of Mum's life yesterday.  It all went perfectly, as Mum would have wished.  So may friends and family came along, many more than expected.  It was heartening to see the lives of the ones she has touched and continued to do even in her later years.  All commented on how lovely everything was.  Please pass on my thanks to the florist too, the flowers were spectacular, colours were just Mum!  They interpreted John's instructions perfectly.
