Today is a Sad Day

Hi Guys, I would just like to let you know that today my wife's (Alice) Mum passed away after a short illness and stay in hospital.

This is why some of you may not have seen much of me on IIS of late

Leon

It’s times like these that one truly realises that words can never really express the inner most felt emotions. Unfortunately, all we have are words and hopefully you will take some heart from the beautiful messages of condolence expressed on this magnificent forum. At the end of the day, we are a small community and a caring one, so I add my voice to the others in wishing you my sincere sympathies and hope that you and Alice celebrate your mother in-law and mothers life, rather than dwell on her passing. Stay strong for Alice.
