Our Beloved Mother
An Artist: with oil, with watercolour, with people.
Like any true artist, a lover: of her husband, her children, grandchildren,
great-grandchildren, of nature, of life.
Her curiosity knew no bounds: literature, astronomy, gardening, poetry.
She was an exceptional listener with a deep interest in people,
completely engaged in the moment.
She had a brilliant sense of humour.
Nothing escaped her notice, a colour, the shape of a leaf.
“We are proud to have been able to walk with her awhile”
