It has been a traumatic week.
My best friend died very suddenly last week.
I got to know Lisa on UK scrappers in December 2005, when she joined Humbug's Angels, and as she lived just a few minutes down the road from me we became friends in real life too. When she died a huge void has been left within me that will never be filled, and I know I am not alone.
Today was her funeral service.
It was very very sad, but very beautiful at the same time. Warren, her husband was so very brave and said a few words about his lovely wife, and how much he loved her. Lisa's nephew was also very brave doing a reading and a poem about sister's love, (Laura should be very very proud of him). Finally a close friend of Lisa and Warren's managed to bring a smile to our faces with some lovely recollections. Lisa certainly went off in style today, the church was absolutley packed with family and friends.
RIP Lisaxx
