25-12-2023 happy Christmas Mary hardy.just thinking about 12.00 you would put the Christmas dinner on.then open a bottle of wine and get your party hat on, and put all the Christmas songs on slade elvis wizard and the rest somethings never change.all the grand kids are growing up fast and doing well just poor George had a few more operations on his arm.he such a brave kid never complains. Maybe one day they might fix him up. Miss you lots Mary. Night night and god bless

to go it alone
you,re my first love. you,re my last. you,re my future. you,re my past. and loving you mary was all I asked. some men search for silver some for gold. but I found my treasure in you that's all I ever needed. without love I,d never find a way through ups and downs of every single day without you., but now I,am learning day by day to go it alone .

marys wishes
you wanted a card board coffin you got the next best which looked ok mary, you were carried in by your brothers.your son. nephew. + son in law.your music was played elvis. how great thou art.aunt bett.alex. + davy rodger came down from Scotland. ive signed to stop in the bunglow which you wanted me to do. ive tried to put right what was wrong for you but no success sorry. so just one thing to do is scatter your ashes.so you become a free spirit. it was a pity we got no time together in are retirement, your il ness made it a long road to travel. no more so than the road to st james they were great people.
