How we have been touched by ...Hello,dearest Sandra:<br />How we have been touched by your incredibly tender and loving letter to Dave. Although his death was mercifully swift and without agonising pain, we cannot begin to understand how bereft you must feel having lost your constant companion, the love of your life, your very best friend, Dave.<br /><br />Through you, we feel we knew something of this towering strength of a man. An illness so bravely born, service to a nation so honourably given and friendships to so many founded and nurtured over the years. A life full of excitement and fun, all of which, the good and the not so good shared with you. Our hearts are saddened that things can never be the same again for you, dearest Sandra.<br /><br />But, we know that you are strong and brave, Sandra, in the sure knowledge of God's love for you. Thistle Cove Farm will provide you with its comforting routines, its beauty and its daily tasks. You will rise to those challenges, we know, and our thoughts and prayers are with you as you put one foot in front of the other to meet them.
