My Message

[murraymints]

At this time I want to wish all Abers a very happy Christmas and a guid but mainly healthy New Year. It has been a difficult 12 months for me with many ups and downs after losing Dad and dealing with mum, but I have had tremendous support from you my cyber friends, and for that I thank you.

I wish to send special good wishes to anyone alone or who has suffered the loss of a loved one this year, we have lost the dear Nungate, the much loved Sibs, and the wonderful Mrs O and there will be more that we just do not know of and my thoughts are with their loved ones, I have dedicated golden stars on my tree in their memory.

So we look forward to the next 12 months, lets fill it with joy and happiness !!

Minty you are a diamond in a coal mine. I am at present with "She who must be obeyed" who lost her darling Mother earlier this year, and who has during today had the dread reflection that this is her first Christmas without her. It just popped out, but I was ready, having been there. She attended a little service on Wed. at the village Church, which was for all the people who have lost a beloved this year, and came home with a little golden butterfly. When the thought came up during the carol service on earlier from Kings College, she asked me what I had done with it. I showed her the Christmas tree where I had placed it right on the top. I loved her too. I do hope for you all the understanding and good grace that you dispense with such ease here on the "bank" for the rest of us Minty. The happiness you wish for us all appears to be an innate part of you, and I know that you can face 2017 with a heart that will see you receive the gift of happiness and peace that you hope for us.

Seasons greetings and all the best minty. Hope 2017 is all you hope for, and more. X

Love and best wishes to you Minty, it's my first Christmas without my husband, I am spending today with family, waiting now for the grandkids to get up so we can open presents, then we are going to the church yard to visit my husband and then to daughters in laws for lunch. Happy birthday to you too xx
