Hi Steve. Sorry, we were setting up and just noticed this- not sure if you managed to see any of us (I dashed back to the hall with Sheila's friend straight after to help get the food and drinks finished). It was very busy and fabulous to see so many people there. Thank you for coming
 
Loving the "Barry" A2 cake that Darren and Di so kindly provided ?

What an amazing family A2OC is!
You make dreams happen.

The "Barry" cake is so beautiful. John would have loved it. I was lost for words which doesn't happen very often. Thank you so much Darren and Di.

Thank you all for helping to set up the village hall, bringing the very tasty food, running the bar, washing up the pots, clearing the debris and folding the tables and stacking the chairs. You made it possible for me to talk with friends and family about my wonderful husband and be reminded of some distant memories.

We wanted to give John the best send off ever and you all helped make that happen.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did.

Love Sheila and Barry XXX
 
Just to let you know Fred and Sharon are safely delivered to the Marriott Hotel Heathrow and I am back in Sibsey.

It was a wet journey south but much drier coming home.

I hope to see you all at the next social event.

Barry will be pleased when the glasses are back at Morrisons. He says he loves the sugar version of himself...

Love to you all.

Not sure if you all saw the Boston Stump tower lantern lit in Celebration of John's Life...

Fred organised it when we visited the Stump last Sunday afternoon.

It was so beautiful when we walked to see it after our tasty Prezzo meal.

A very special weekend with so many memories.

Love Sheila XXX

Glad you got back safely Sheila.
The Stump looked beautiful illuminated and I'm inclined to think that my sat nav issues that led to me circling it numerous times whilst trying to find Prezzo, was John having a good look at Barney! I couldn't believe how simple the journey should have been, when I went home today ?
I'm so glad that you got the send off for John that you wanted and he very much deserved. It was lovely to see people chatting, reminiscing and laughing together. It was very much a celebration of his life.
Love and hugs xxx
