Well I seem to function best with stuff to do so im doing it, ir trying too.
Mum died on Monday. Am trying to sketch out the announcement notes and service details- which bloody hard as dad, who knew the stuff I need to know has dementia :(
We want a celebration of a life well lived not a devastatedly heartbroken service - that would do me in!
DS is doing the eulogy - he's going to call mums sister for early details thrn I think move on to family life and being a grandma which she just adored doing.
Hymns to be decided- would love to know what worked for you, we wanted a hymn from the wedding but no one can remember :(
Readings ? Suggestions welcome
I also want to do pew cards / a book with memories of her to get filled in. Does " when I remember x I smile when I think...." Seem a good start?
Also how do put " please don't wear black, where what you like " as a dress code?
Hope this is the right place to post this ... Thanks for reading
