So sorry to hear this sad news. Heartfelt condolences to you both. Life can be so cruel. I will raise a glass to you both for your future. Take care.
So sorry for your loss, Fraser & Ruairi
Jenny and I will never forget Bernadette’s kindness; we will be forever grateful for her willingness to step forward and help us with babysitting duties when Jenny injured her wrists and couldn’t lift Connor. And, that is how we will remember her, absolute kindness. She also never complained about my singing, but enough said about that.
Dear Fraser and family!
My sincere sympathies to your loss. I’m shocked and very sad about the news.
Hope you can find strength in these rough times.
Sending love,
Nina
Dear Fraser and Ruairi, nothing can prepare you for the loss of someone so close. We feel your pain. Bernadette may no longer be with you but nothing can take away your memories of such a joyous, warm and fun loving person. Be strong for each other.
Oh Doddsys, what is there more to say except that we are thinking of you both. So very, very sad but so many happy memories of Bernadette.
All our love,
Claire, Pete, Jo and Steve Crouchley
Dear Fraser and Ruairi Bernadette was a very special person who made a deep impression on all the nurses that cared for her. Her concern for others when she needed the help always stood out for me. She was always so positive and tried so hard to adjust to all the care she required. I will always remember our Tullamore connection and will think of her and her father when I there this summer. May her soul rest in peace. She will always be remembered for how she loved.
Fraser very sad to here about Bernadette. Among the many fond memories I have is her being the life and the sole of the Kings annual outing to St Neots. Our thoughts are with you.
