Wilma, Linda, Sheena, Ian and the grandchildren would like to express their sincere thanks to all the relatives, friends and neighbours who joined them, both in person and by live-stream, to celebrate the long, adventure-filled life of Evelyn (Gaga), nee Skinner. We are grateful for all the kind and loving messages, cards and letters, and for the generous donations for Friends of Roxburghe House Grampian. Thank you to Roger Williams for his lovely music, to Rev Valerie Mitchell for her encouragement, planning and comforting words, to Anne Presly and Shirin Geddes for their beautiful flowers, to Louise Mackie for preparing the slide show, to all who prepared the church for us, and to the friends and grandchildren who took part and made the day so memorable, especially Finlay Geddes for his fitting tribute. We are grateful for the kindness of all who cared for Gaga, at ARI and Haddo Medical Practice, her Macmillan nurses and the amazing staff at Roxburghe House. Thanks also to Michelle Kennedy at Craig & Beverly Funeral Directors for her care and gentle advice, to Kerry’s Katering for the lovely lunch and to Alexander Dixon at 3:16 AVI for live-streaming the event.
