My Auntie Joyce passed away last night. She was my dad's oldest brother's wife. Although she was failing a bit the last few months, this was still a bit unexpected in that it seemed sudden though not totally out of the blue. She was in her 80's and diabetic and i think mainly her ailments have been complications due to that. She was kind, generous, warm, and she could be quite jolly. That's the word that comes to mind when i think of her. She had a great sense of humour and had a mischievous twinkle in her eye. She was well respected within the family and well loved. Her service, too, will be in the same chapel as Dad's.

I'm so sorry. Even when people are old it still takes us by surprise most of the time.

Thank you. It was a bit of a surprise really, she hadn't been in hospital and I don't really know what precipitated it, though she'd not been well and had expected to go in hospital. She didn't because she was feeling a bit better and then we hear this.
