I’m so very sorry and saddened to learn of Rachael’s passing. She took me under her wing back in 1986 when I started working with her at Welhome Rd dental practice for Peter Carrote. She was so kind and friendly and eased my passage into my first post as a v young dentist having moved away from home. Over the years we have exchanged correspondence and her ongoing interest in me and my children and latterly grandchildren has been appreciated and cherished. A dear dear kind human being who enriched my life and will be very sadly missed but remembered with fondness and love.
I will think of you all at the memorial service as sadly I can’t attend
Sending my best wishes and utmost sympathy to you and all the family

Helen, Clare & Lucy so sad to hear the news that you have lost your lovely mum. I have such fond memories of coming round to meet you on my way to school and how kind your mum always was to me. Sending much love and hugs and prayers to you all at this difficult time.
