MADAM – I would just like to thank all my neighbours and friends from the church who gave me transport to the hospital while my sweetheart was in there.

Also a big thank-you to the lovely people at the Cotswold Care Home who looked after my darling whilst she was in there and for the love that they showed to me and my friends.

Also I cannot speak highly enough of this lovely home.

Similarly, I would like to thank the Rowcroft Medical Centre, the doctors, nurses and friends there and to the nurses and people who looked after my darling whilst she was in hospital.

Also Michael Gamble who saw to the funeral arrangements in such a professional way.

Thank-you to our minister, deacons and friends at John Street Baptist Church for all the help they gave me and the love they have shown me now.

Thank-you to the many people who came to the thanksgiving service for my sweetheart – sorry I was not able to speak to you all and thank-you to all those who have telephoned and spoken to me and spoken so highly of my darling and to anyone else who I have forgotten to thank.

God bless you all.
