Some very Sad News

Hi Everybody,
We had some very sad news last week, that was Margaret who is the Sister of my Auntie (no relationship to me) died suddenly from a Stroke.  She lived in America with her Husband Bert, I only met her once at my Cousin's Wedding back in September but she was the life and soul of the party.  She was fantastic and I loved her for that.
Anyone that dies from a Stroke, really upsets me.  Because I'm a Stroke Survivor.  I have lost the use of the right side of my body but, I look back and it could have been me.  It's very sad.

Rest in Peace 'Auntie' Margaret. x x
And to Bert I feel your loss, but she is in a better place and looking down on you and the Children.
This is the Card my Mum have sent to Bert.
