One year on

It is hard to know how to mark the anniversary of Brigid's untimely death from breast cancer. Many of us will be lighting candles at this time of year and I thought we might also light a "virtual" candle in memory of Brigid.

My soulmate, Joanna and Sam's mummy, Judy and Michael's daughter, Brigid passed away on 22nd December 2004 at age 39. Brigid inspired all of us who knew her with her love, creativity and drive. She crammed an amazing amount into her days - in the last few years beside being a full time mum to two small children (and I now know what that involves) she published a local baby directory, played cello in two orchestras, was training as an ante-natal instructor, volunteered for the NCT & MNS, ran for Cancer Research UK, was a regular at Dragons Health Club, and yet always had time to help friends out and arrange something else.

Brigid supported Cancer Research UK for many years and this is also an opportunity to help cure cancer faster. Please light a candle by giving £2 to Cancer Research.

Love does not die, and may her memory be a blessing

Thank you

Mark, Joanna and Sam

23 Dec. A huge thank you to the 150+ people who have lit a candle
