    Remembering a lovely, kind and welcoming lady. With love to all the family xx

    It has been an absolute pleasure acting as Myf’s accountant for 45 years.

    Everyone of our telephone conversations were filled with so much humour. Always made her laugh with my stupid jokes.

    She didn’t like HMRC too much & who could blame her.

    My thoughts are with all the family at this very sad time, but I am sure that the memories that you have will be of comfort to you all.

    i will miss you Myf.

    love

    Knowing Myf for over 50 years has been a privilege..She was at her happiest doing thoughtful things for others.
    We spent much time in many countries enjoying family life.
    Myf & Purton House has made a profound contribution to the present & the future of those lucky enough to have known MYF.
    FOR that & so much more w e say
    Thank you Myf

    I first met Myf in 2015 when Ibby brought her to a Psalms course I was leading. She took a keen interest with intelligent questions and comments and she was most encouraging to me. We kept in touch through Ibby, and for her birthday I always gave her a present of her favourite item in Ibby’s wide range of excellent chocolate products. She was most conscientious in sending me a beautiful handwritten thank you letter every time. Last Christmas I had the great honour and pleasure of being invited to a family gathering and sitting next to Myf at the meal. I thoroughly enjoyed it all, especially the conversation with Myf. She was so bright and happy that it was a terrible shock when within days Ibby told me that she had suffered a stroke. I am just thankful to the Lord that I had the privilege of her company before it was too late, I thank God upon every remembrance of her. May she rest in peace and rise in glory.
