    Dear Suzan and family,
    We only talked two weeks ago. How quickly life can change.
    It was a snowy day when I read of your Mum’s passing and the passage that goes something like …to each there is a season came to mind. There is something about fields covered in a fluffy white blanket of snow that evoke the feeling of completion….a peaceful sleep.
    Loved ones live forever in our hearts.
    Love
    Susan
