Dear Tara, Jo and families.
Your mother was a unique woman, a strong mother and a damned good nurse. I can still see her in her uniform and standing behind the desk of the 3rd floor at St. Joseph’s when my Dad was dying – or telling Tara and me to go outside if we wanted to make so much noise.
May she rest in peace and may you and your families have many happy memories of her to distract you from the pain of her loss.
