To Kath and Brian and all the family. It was wonderful when Kath contacted me in 2015 to tell me she was a relative of mine. Our Grandmother's were sisters and we bonded over our Great Aunt Maggie Baron who died fulfilling her duties as a VAD nurse in World War 1. Kath supported my husband when I had major surgery and supported me with regular phone calls after my husband's death in 2020. I have been trying to contact her and was sad to hear of her death but her Christian Faith shone through her and we hold fast to the wonderful Christian Hope. I lam moving to supported housing in Surrey on the day of Kath's funeral but I will hold you all and Kath in my heart and prayers. May she rest in peace and Rise in Glory. Janet Margaret Reeves
