Tributes

Thank you Jeannie, for your love, grace and kindness (as well as patience!) shown to us, when our paths crossed in England. Your faith that shone through, along with your wonderful sense of fun, helped both Anne and I, in growing our own faith. We will never forget our times together, in our little prayer group, with you and John. There were amazing times of breaking bread under the stars, as we prayed together. Special times with treasured memories. Love Des and Anne xx
