I consider myself truly lucky to be surrounded by kind people both friends and family wise. This is a blessing so easy to overlook when the anxiety gremlin is demanding my attention. Today I am giving thanks for the souls in my life- you know who you are. I am not by a nature an overly sentimental person but the simplicity of these two epitaphs that I've seen over recent months appealed to me. In a few well chosen words they give a true sense of the people and how treasured they were. Moving tributes with that good old dash of British reserve.
