I FOUND myself thinking: “Underneath the chestnut tree, I loved her and she loved me.
“Now we have a family, underneath the spreading chestnut tree.”
We lost our eldest girl Ruth with MS and Sylvia died with the same after 65 years together.
We still have a daughter, Judith, and son, Chris, seven grandchildren and 11 great grandchildren.
Count your blessings.
