Aunty Floss ..His beautiful wife of Fifty Seven years of marriage still kissed and cuddled him unashamedly ...the love in the room was tangible between them both ...we all knew it was time to say goodbye......the next morning at 8.30 am he left his pain wracked body never to suffer again
how beautiful are the lines of age...always smiling ...and she is ninety
This is father and son...my Kelvin andhis dad...our Poppy Clark who is Aunty Floss's brother...
Uncle Geoff served his Queen and Country valiantly so it was fitting that a Naval Flag was draped on his coffin and a spokesman delivered the naval Tribute as part of the service.....
This would have to be one of my favorite pics of the year(Oh i know it wouldn't have a chance of winning a prize and it has no form or perfect placement, the background is terrible, ...the light is all wrong ..BUT can you see the LOVE???)..Brother and sister's kissing Goodbye...pop going to his nursing home in Low Head and Aunty Floss going to hers...
Till we meet again....

Sad times. How sweet is love, though? Thank goodness there is a lot of it to go around.
