B, a beloved, remarkable, beautiful woman, died last Sunday after five years in a care home with Alzheimer's. Soon after, Zander sent out this email to friends and family:
" B died at 7am this morning. The care home phoned me at 0230 and again at 0530, so I went in and sat beside B. She was very peaceful, breathing gently and at 7 her breathing stopped.A good life and a peaceful end".
We've set a date and time for B's funeral - see the link below from today's Scotsman. We'd love to see any of you there if you are around and free, but please don't feel that you need to travel big distances to join us - through the miracle of social media, we all feel connected to folk anyway.
After the celebratory memorial service, there will be sandwiches and coffee in the Undercroft Cafe beneath the church.
We all really appreciate the support and messages that everyone has sent us: it's been a difficult time and it helps to know that folk out there care.
With love from us all, Z, C, P, J, B.
