Weeding of Remembrance


Weeding of remembrance


Blossom - from all of us we will be thinking of you at 12.00 today - Lesley's memorial service.

And at 4.00 pm today lets get out into those gardens and join together in our weeding of remembrance. Let us celebrate the lives of all of those we have loved and lost and give Blossom and Lesley's family a great big purple hug.

If you can't go and physically pull up a weed at 4.00pm then stop for a minute, close your eyes and do a bit of mental weeding.

Ok girls - trowels at the ready - virtual and real - and see you all at 4.00.

    Thanks for reminding me.

    I went to my little prayer service last night, and then the other ladies were going up to the common to listen to nightingales, so I went with them. It was lovely. So we will weed this afternoon and listen to the birds too and remember all our loved but departed ones who by the mercy of God rest in peace.

    Certainly, I'll be there weeding, unless it is coming down stair-rods, in which case it'll be in my head. I too will be thinking of the many friends and family who have gone too soon before me.
    Also thinking of you now, Blossom, as you are all sharing your goodbye's and sorrow.

    Blossom - a great big hug to you and wish you only joy for the future. We'll be out there at 4.00 today thinking of Lesley, her family and others. To celebrate the lives of those we have lost is an honourable thing. Maybe this could be Purplecoo's day of Rememberance with summer, the warmth of friendship and the promise of new life just around the corner.
