I have the most amazing friends…

at Christmas I made a donation in their honour and had a memory stone produced…  last year Cyndi and Ron had two made and it was just such a lovely gesture…

a colleague at work, who is exceptionally good with words, helped me to get the wording just right… there are only a certain number of lines and a certain number of letters on each line… bit of a puzzle really…

then I sent off the money and wording and waited… I didn’t mention anything to the two groups of women because I wanted it to be a visible surprise for them…

just recently I was thinking that I hadn’t heard anything about when the stone was being laid and the very next day I received an email confirming that it had been installed at the Park by the Duck Pond…

went over and found it very easily… the last ones were quite difficult to find, lol… had a bit of a giggle because of all the stones in the area, it was the only one that had been blessed by the ducks/geese…

took some pictures and sent a note to my friends to let them know where they could see it and letting them know how important they are to me…

don’t know if anyone has seen it in person yet, but many have been quite touched… as was I to be able to do this for them…
