Went to a funeral today, Stan who lived opposite my parents house, a wonderful gentle and intelligent man. He and his, now, widow, Vera had a great love of Shire horses. They had several horse-drawn ploughs as garden ornaments and many horse brasses in the house.

Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Sometimes the family really do know the departed - and everyone notices the gesture!
