I have shared the lovely obituary you created with all my children - and they were all very touched. We all wish, as stupidly busy people do, that we’d been able to spend more time with her - and with our extended families. . My own memories go back to Old Tiles, when I would stay with Granny and pop down to see GIll. I used to help her hang out the washing - mostly holding the peg bag! We woud reward ourselves with a cup of te for her, and squash for me - and Pattersons petticoat tail shortbread. Just one. One day she was waiting for me beside the magnolia (which was quite small then) called me over, held out her cupped hands and slid a baby hedgehog into mine - it was a furry rather than prickly pencil sharpener! It kept it me company, travelling in my pencil case and sitting on my desk (and sharpening pencils) for many years! I loved Gill’s willingness to accept and support - writing letters and cards in her italic hand inviting me, when everything went pear-shaped, to bring Stephen to a delightful 60th Wedding celebration. And I loved her faith, her joy in her grandchildren, and her enthusiasm and curiosity about our boating life when she and Alan spotted us moored up in Banbury, and came aboard for soup. Sending much love to you all.
