A year ago you Crossed the Bar to become a Spirit in the Sky and went to the Place that's the Best.

Free from pain and distress after some many years and so many times being told "Sorry Ken, but there's nothing more we can do ".

Love and miss you so much. Rest in Peace. Darling. Xxx

I would like to thank everyone who attended Ken's funeral back in December and all who very kindly gave donations in his memory. Plus a special thank you for the many cards, letters, phone calls and condolences received.
I am pleased to let you know that the sum of £1,000 was collected and £500 has been sent to the R.N.L.I and £500 to Shelter Box as was Ken's wish.
A special 'Thank You ' also goes to Mr. Simon Tucker of W.H.Squires, Funeral Directors: Rev/exPadre Andrew Thomas: Culm Florists: Padbrook Park Hotel and the incredible Staff on Clyst Ward at the R.D & Exeter Hospital for the love and care shown to us.
Many thanks, Liz.
