Thank you to the special palliative nurse German girl that I apologise I cannot spell
Your comment to me" this is a beautiful day to fly" was so gentle. You knew and then I knew. Thank you for your special loving last services you gave her on her last day, her birthday of 98 years. Ellie

Mama. We are left. Bereft. To be honoured to be with you through your last 4 weeks will never leave me. You went through it all with such dignity.
Life will never be the same. Irreplaceable

I thank you for the special gift you whispered to me, to be held in my heart forever. So many adventures together over so many years, so many photos, so much fun and laughter.
This quiet sleep is yet another adventure as we wait for the soon Sound of The Trumpet of The Resurrection to be reunited.
Even so, come Lord Jesus. Loved you more than words can ever express....Ellie

REVELL, Alice (nee Sloan) Born 17 June 1916. Passed away on 17 June 2014. Dearest Mum, your long life has been lived to the full, with 6 kids, work, travel travel travel, and with your spirit always seeking new challenges, you've always planned ahead and had things to look forward to. Many adventures and memorable occasions under your belt! This birthday you approached with some amazement that you were really that old- and we talked about the Queen's Telegram coming up. Indomitable and stoic to the end, despite the misadventure, you chose your time to depart- party's over, time to go. Wonderful memories, huge sadness that we won't be making any more. May your feet carry you forward painlessly on this newest adventure! At Rest, At Last - Poof! Tippyxx
