In Memoriam

HUGHES, Olive Joyce:
20/01/37 – 23/08/22
It is now one whole year since you left us. Miss and love you every day. My sincerest thanks to the team at Wyndham Community and Districts Rest home for the four years of love and care you all gave mum, especially in the last few months of her life. Also a huge thank you to the team at Hammond and Ryder Funeral Services for the love and care you showed mum after her passing and the continued support. You made her farewell so very special. I could not have got through that day without your support.
To Our Beloved Mother
We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday And the days before that too.
We think of you in silence
We often speak your name.
Now, all we have is memories
And your picture in a frame.
Some think you are forgotten
Though on earth you are no more,
But in our memories you are with us
As you always were before.
