Your words…

  • “My beautiful friend, my soul mate, my confidant. Walking into your kitchen when we were 6 years old, you eating f a tomato...from that day on we grew up together, we partied hard together, we laughed and cried together and got up to all kinds of mischief together. We have so many precious memories that we have made together as friends as sisters. Having a special friend like you for 55 years is so rare. So many things that made us laugh. You stuck by me through thick and thin, you will never know what you mean to me my Cinds. I love you and always will. Rest peacefully my friend, I will miss you with all my heart and soul and will cherish every memory we have shared over the last 55 years ❤️” - Chanti

  • “My dearest cousin, In sunlit days of years long past, A cousin's bond, a love to last. We shared a laugh, a whispered dream, A childhood world, it would seem. Then paths diverged, the years flew by, A silent space beneath the sky. Now silence falls, where joy once played, A sudden loss, a heart dismayed. But in my heart, your memory stays, A precious gift through changing days. For every joy and every trace, I hold you now in a special space. A bond of love that time can't bend, A treasured cousin, until the end. Though far apart, you're not forgot, Your gentle spirit, I have sought. Taken from us far too soon Cinds.” - Seán

Your warmth, your laughter, and your generous spirit will be missed more than words can say. ❤️” - De Jongh
