Dear David, Michael and Family, It is good to know your dear mother is at rest though when Rachael and I called to see her a year ago, Aunt Helen was bright and knew us well. She certainly appeared to enjoy the visit as did we.

It is sad to see all our family of her generation have completed their journey. It is now up to us to support and comfort the younger generation for as long as we are granted life to try and ensure their peace and security through the generations knowing there will be trials beyond our ability to control.
Some of them I have met but hear about them from time to time enjoying success and seeing much of the world.
My love and best wishes to you all,
Victoria Haselden Turner.
