Thanks for taking the time to visit this JustGiving page.

Pat died on October 11th 2020 after a long history of Melanoma, having been first diagnosed 14 years ago. Although there were many years of good health, this horrendous, relentless disease has denied Pat of many future years of folk dancing, laughing with friends, voluntary work and epic cross-stitching. It has also taken from us our dearest Wife, Mum, Grandma and friend. 

In this hardest of years, we were all not only denied the chance to spend time with Pat during her time in hospital and the (wonderful) Morris Care Home, but have also decided to not hold a funeral due to the current restrictions on numbers and travel. We will be holding a wake in her memory at some point next year.

So if you feel able to, rather than send flowers please consider donating to Melanoma Focus.  They give support and information to others afflicted with this disease, as well as investing in research to find ever better treatments.
