Requiescat in pace, Fiona.

Yesterday, we received the devastating news of the sudden and premature death of a person very special to us. Still reeling from the shock that comes with such news ourselves, it’s hard to imagine the extent of the pain that the people closest to her are feeling.  Fiona had a big heart, a generous spirit and a true sense of fun and adventure.  Sometimes it’s hard to feel blessed in the midst of such sadness and loss so we’re trying to remember that we’re fortunate our lives were enriched by her friendship. Forever in our hearts, requiescat in pace, Fiona.

Always remembered with love

Just over 20 years ago, Nerea made her debut appearance, bringing us so much joy. We've accomplished so much in that time, creating what I hope are a raft of happy, 
family memories she can recall with fondness in later life. But during this time, there 
 have been moments of unutterable sadness for me as my mum was no longer with us.  
Mum would have been a wonderful Grandma and I'm always so thankful that before she 
died suddenly, 20 years ago today, she'd held my baby daughter in her arms for 
 a few precious hours. Requiescat in pace, Mum
