    With many many grateful thanks .

    Although it is an experience that people don't really want to go through, it was made all the more easier by you all.
    The suggestion of celebrant [Lisa Hollander] to conduct the service, was an excellent choice. She also showed the courtesy, compassion and understanding at what was a very difficult time for us all.
    Everything on the day [The service at Kingshill House, followed by Tea and Coffee with biscuits], and subsequent events went according to the plans that we had.
    Many thanks, and keep up the good work at what is a most difficult time for all concerned.
