RMweb Premium 31A Posted May 14, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 14, 2022 So sorry to hear that David. As with Andy, I also went through similar in 2019, it's not nice at all. Glad to hear the Covid thing is on its way, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Popular Post DaveF Posted May 15, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted May 15, 2022 Once again many thanks for the good wishes. Mum died quietly while she was asleep at around 3 a.m. today. The hospital rang me at 3.30 a.m. so I was able to see her before she was moved, she had obviously been lying comfortably and had just faded away. On the way home I stopped off at the beach for a few minutes while the sun was still low in the sky, it did me a lot of good! Now there are just a few formalities to sort out....

RMweb Premium keefer Posted May 15, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 15, 2022 Deepest condolences David, now your mum is at peace. She seems to have had an amazing life, a bit of a trailblazer for women in an era where, generally, they could have a family or a career but not both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Oldddudders Posted May 15, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 15, 2022 Horrid, horrid news. Mum was a splendid lady - as we know from your writings over the years - and had more than a passing interest in our hobby. I hope you can find solace in the support that this forum is offering you. We care. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
