i had the day off work to go to Warren’s funeral. There is always hope in a christian funeral, but of course mixed with sadness of not seeing the person in the short term. the service was really good with some lovely speeches by various friends and family, then some mourning tea before going over to the burial which was just a few minutes walk from our house.
in fact warren is now buried on our main Pearl walking route through the cemetery so he’ll remain front of our thoughts.
this afternoon i did various errands including taking some dvds back to the shop and picking up the dry cleaning.
then this evening we had our church quiz which involved a bit of lugging sound equipment in and out, but otherwise i didn’t have to do anything other than enjoy the evening. Our friend Tim came along too and it was nice to catch up with him.
i think jane’s going to update the family blog separately. i managed to video conference esther and jane from the cafe just before the quiz started and they all seemed in good spirits having had good flights and a nice sleep.
