Farewell Mona.

So...we are just returned from another trip to Brisbane.We went down yesterday afternoon so that we could attend the funeral of Mona Clark today.Mona is the mother of Faye who is the partner of Anne who Will worked with at Chelmer Kindergarten. Faye and Anne have been caring for Mona since she had a stroke around the time that Dulcie fell and needed her hip replacement....so we are very much kindred spirits in that respect.The funeral today was very moving. Anne had written a lovely eulogy and Faye did a reading that was utterly beautiful:Your mother is always with you.She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street...She's the cool hand on your brow when you are not feeling well.She's your breath in the air on a cold winter's day...Your mother lives inside your laughter.She's crystallized in every teardrop...She's the place you came from, your first home and she's the map you follow with every step you take...(Author Unknown)We know something of what Faye and Anne are going through and we are hoping that soon they will come and visit us here at Frogknot.
