Grandma

I just heard on Saturday evening that my other grandmother, Grandma, my Dad’s mum, Lillian passed away peacefully and altogether unexpectedly in her sleep. She was 89 and to say she had a good innings would be an understatement. Nonetheless we are all pretty shocked and still coming to terms with our loss of a much-loved, fantastic, kind, generous person in our lives. I’ll attempt some kind of eulogy in these pages soon, but in the meantime, I just wanted to share what was going on.

Here’s Grandma last December haggling over gourmet cheeses in Taunton’s Saturday morning market:

  1. Thanks Gwyn.
    We’re lucky to have so many happy and recent memories. And you and she got on so well together. At present we are comforted that she was able to be a free and independent spirit so long, and then went easily and with no distress.
    You played a large part in the last 30 years of her life- keep those memories!
    We’ll be in touch again soon.
