Just want to say thank you very much for your kind words of love and support - it has been a great help and appreciate all my dear friends.
We had a beautiful farewell to say goodbye to our dear Mother, Grandma and Great Grandma, along with all our family, friends and carers that had looked after her in her latter years
Shirley my Mother-in-law had written some lovely words in a book so was great to hear her words and thoughts read out at the service, of some of her life.
We will miss you and will always remember you.
Rest your beautiful soul
Everything changes, nothing perishes
It is at times like this, makes you realise how precious family is and we need to always remember and value our loved ones.
Just to finish off will leave you with my pretty creamy magnolia that is blooming in the garden.
Hope your week is going well
hugs
Carolyn

ReplyDeleteDear Carolyn, Such a beautiful tribute to your lovely Mother in law. I'm sure hearing her words read was a comfort and very special. Your flowers are lovely and your magnolia is stunning. Sending hugs of comfort, thoughts and prayers in the days ahead.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you and your family. xo
Your MiL looked such a lovely young girl who became a wonderful mother, grandmother, and grandmother - she will be remembered by you all - for-get-me-nots are so appropriate.
ReplyDeleteDear Carolyn, continuing to think of you, your husband and family at this time and thankful that the gathering to say farewell to your dear MiL went well. May you be comforted by remembrances of a beautiful, gracious lady. Having her words in a book is special. The forget-me-not flowers and margeurites in the posy bowl are lovely. Blessings from Linda and family.xx

This is a dear post to remember your mother-in-law, Carolyn. The picture of her is so pretty. I thought that she was born in the 20's, as she looks like one of the pretty 20's girls you see in the magazines. And a lovely magnolia blooming in your garden for her. This is a BIG one.
ReplyDeleteYes, family is so important.
love, ~Sheri
