A short message from Vashtis' son

It would take me too long to answer all of you one by one but I'd like you all to know your messages have lifted my spirits, Thankyou all so much.

There is a small house on the edge of a bog in Eire warmed with a peat fire surrounded by a garden full of a tangle of wild flowers, cats chasing the Faerie daft enough to show themselves, Dogs in front of the fire dreaming of long walks, Mice in the attic tramping about with their hobnail boots on, it's a good place, a place full of history and stories I'm sad and proud my Mum has now become part of the history and story of this special place.

I shan't post again, I've said what I needed to say, for all that read this I wish you well

Brendan

Thank you Brendan for sharing the lovely picture of that part of history that our oh so special friend has become !

I hope her posts will remain on this forum for a while so that we, as we feel the need can revisit those special times we spent with Vashti, walking the paths with her as she painted the most vivid pictures of history and the cats and her shed and himself.

What an awesome journey!

Take care

Shirley

They are all still on the board. The easiest way to find one is to use the search facility. Just put in a key word.

Feels like I know that house, that garden, those lovely cats and dogs. Vashti, you mum had a way of painting pictures that stay in the mind - it seems that you're blessed with that same talent. Thank you for sharing it. You'll all be in our thoughts over the coming days - and remembered every time we think of vashti.
