Ron today it is now 7 years since you left us and now 1 year since Monica left me. Missing you both as much as not able to share with you what is happening around us or discuss it. Ron you will be pleased to know Sharon has given you a new yellow tie on your birch tree that decided to grow over you. Harry is now about to take his GCSE in May , you wouldn't recognise the boys now. Love as always from all the family. Nette and Sharon, Andrew and Rebecca, Debbie and Gary and of course the boys Harry and Kingsley

Well Ron now 5 years since you left us and what a turbulent time it has been. Although missing you still we're glad you are missing the state of the world and even your police force. this Xmas at least managed to spend some time with the family. We have had such bizarre weather lately that the camellias and azaleas don't know whether they are coming or going , they have been beautiful. Both grandchildren are now at senior school and doing well. People are just getting back to work after two years of restrictions, which affected Debbie and Gary but Andrew and Rebecca were unaffected. All for now Love Nette and Sharon.

Well Chris this is the 4th year being just a week after Ron, without seeing your happy smiling face which we could have done with this year. Xmas was impossible and we hope we never see another one like it. Unable to meet up with any of the family as in a Pandemic called Coronavirus and everyone in Lockdown. You wouldn't believe that my hair hasn't been cut for over a year as going to peoples houses etc was banned. Sharon has been stuck with me at the house as we were classed as vulnerable which meant shielding from other people. But there is light at the end of the tunnel as people who have survived are getting vaccinated as scientists around the world have been working flat out to get it to the world. Still missing you and your happy go lucky attitude. Love Sister Nette and Niece Sharon. XX

This is the 4th year without you and still missing you but l am glad you have missed this last year as worst in living memory due to being in a Pandemic. Had to spend Xmas sat outside in the car or around a fire pit to be able to see the family and open presents, due to having to Social distance. (The oddest Xmas ever)!! There is a glimmer of light at the end though, as we are all gradually getting vaccinated to protect us a bit. Hoping that by Summer 2021 we might be able to sit inside and enjoy the company of the family which we haven't done since Jan 2020. We have had to endure 3 Lockdowns, not being able to leave the house except for essential travel or exercise. We all wished 2020 over, but now we are all wishing 2021 over so that 2022 might actually be normal! Love always Nette and Sharon. XX
