It is with a heavy heart I share with you the news of the death of Cherry, dearly loved mother of George my Son-in Law.

I have only known Cherry for the past three years and was drawn to her open friendly nature. Elly was introduced shortly after she met George and was immediately accepted and loved by Cherry and indeed all the family.

Cherry had a lovely home and was at her happiest when, like a mother hen she had all the family round her table. She was privileged to see her family grow, increase and multiply and I was honoured to witness and be part of a large happy family gathering round her table last Christmas.

May Cherry rest easily now her suffering is over and my prayer for Sam her husband, George and all the family is to find acceptance in the warm happy memories and love of a very special wife and mother.

God’s Masterpiece Is Mother

God took the fragrance of a flower…
The majesty of a tree…
The gentleness of morning dew…
The calm of a quiet sea…
The beauty of the twilight hour…
The soul of a starry night…
The laughter of a rippling brook…
The grace of a bird in flight…
Then God fashioned from these things
A creation like no other,
And when his masterpiece was through
He called it simply – Mother.
