| Carole and Beth at Littlehampton |
Clearly, her walk has begun, and Jon, a Sussex Search & Rescue (http://www.sussar.org/) volunteer walked with her to us. We provided supper - various curries, ice-cream and wine - a bed for the night, breakfast and a packed lunch. And this morning we handed her over to Carole - another SusSAR volunteer - who will walk the next leg with her.
It was fun having her to stay, and a thank you for her help in raising funds for Lowland Rescue, along with the RNLI, which is such good causes. We will be following her progress with interest.
Sadly though just as we were all milling about after breakfast, a phone call came from Jeremy to tell us that Aunt Jo has died.
His only sibling. My last aunt.
Things are getting very sad. And I will be blogging about her.
She was our glamorous London aunt. And she has always been there - up to now.
Jean and I got to the Field Service Group yesterday and we did have a lovely morning out together - we were given just the right amount of territory, and we made a return visit on a lady who remembered exactly what Jean had said to her about the resurrection.
Its Sylvia's Memorial at the Kingdom Hall today - and Jean just rang to ask for a lift. So we will be going together and I will think about Aunt Jo as well as Sylvia at the service this afternoon. Especially when the brother giving the talk reminds us of the hope we have of seeing our loved ones again.
