WILLIAM JOHN "JACK" BLUNDELL Betty and family would like to thank everyone who attended the Church service to celebrate Jack's life and to apologise that we did not get to speak to you. For the donations in Jack's memory and the many messages, cards and expressions of sympathy - our thanks for those too - it helps to know how well 'Jack' was thought of. Grateful thanks to Dr Miura and nurses Pat and Mary Ann of Barnes Ward, DCH, who made Jack's last days more comfortable, especially the words of comfort from Dr Miura; words that Betty will always treasure. To Jane Cotton of Cotton & Son for the sympathetic and caring manner in which she dealt with the arrangements. For the Revd Deb Smith (the Vicaress) who supported the family at such a sad time and for leading such a beautiful service for Jack. To Angie and those who helped with the catering afterwards - Thank you. Last, but not least to mum's neighbours who we know have supported her in the last awful weeks. It's good to know you are there. Bless you all. Please accept this as our personal message of thanks.   view...
