The obituary notice of Grace REID

Hi Mum, it's a lovely day today. It would have been you and dad's wedding anniversary on Sunday. I remember when we all went to Alan & Gina to celebrate your anniversary - I think it would have been your fortieth. I have a photograph of us all together, it must have been Gina who took the photo. I think it's the only one I have of the five of us with you both. Pam & I look like twins with our curly hair - funny. Life is up & down at the moment, Mike & I have some doubts about whether moving to Wallingford was really the right thing to do but we're here now and not financially able to move anywhere else now, so we will have to just try and make the best of it. Miss you as aways mum, and dad, always thinking of you both xxxx Love Linda

Hi Mum, it's a lovely bright day and it's Christmas. We going to Pam later for dinner. Hayley & Alex are in Japan. Kev & Kev are still in Thailand and Jay is enjoying the army life.
I would like to go back but Mike doesn't want to come and it doesn't seem fair to leave him on his own for maybe 3 weeks.
Still miss you mum, you and dad are never far from my thoughts. xxx Linda

Hi Mum, it's a lovely bright day and it's Christmas !!
We going to Pam later for dinner. Hayley has gone off travelling with Alex and they are in Japan now. Kevin & Keg are still in Thailand and Jay is enjoying being in the army.
I'd like to go to Thailand again been thinking about it a lot but Mike won't come with me and I don't think it's fair to leave him on his own. I just thought the other day we could sell our park home, buy a lovely apartment in Thailand with a swimming pool ! maybe one day. Miss you mum , you're never far from my thoughts xxx Love Linda

Hi Mum, happy birthday, it's a lovely bright day, sun shining.
I think it always seems to be sunny when it's your birthday. Not much happening here at the moment, to be honest I feel quite depressed with all the pain from my hand & wrist.
Mike & I are not getting on, don't know if it's me or him prob both. We been through a lot of stress with the move etc. Not sure how to handle it really, I'm 72 now, sometimes just can't be bothered with it all. Miss your humour mum, if I was able to phone you and moan about it all I know by the end of the conversation you would have got me laughing and cheered me up.
Miss you every day mum, xxxxx Linda

Hi Mum, it's 1st May today, dad's birthday. Can't believe he was actually born 101 years ago today !
We have been very busy sorting out the house, it needed a lot of work doing - still does but will get there in the end.It's a beautiful day today, very sunny. I'm going swimming later. I haven't been for months because of the fracture and arthritis but I'm determined to give it a go and today is the day I've picked. Later on I am meeting Pam for a wander around the town. I'm busy working as always don't think I'll ever give it up ! Kev is still in Thailand, I think he's enjoying it and Jay is going into the army for a year I think that's actually today ! Been texting Jackie and she said she might come down to Wallingford in the summer so that would be nice to see her. Hayley is going travelling with her boyfriend Alex , I think they leave in August. We will miss her a lot, because we have seen a lot of her since we moved down here. Her & Alex have helped us a lot with stuff that needed worked on.Going to get ready for swimming now, miss you as always Mum , lots of love Linda xxxxx
