Welcome to WYKAAO
"Dear all,
I am writing to express my heartfelt thanks for your generous support during this time of loss. Whether it is a beautiful floral arrangement or donation you sent to honour the memory of Denis, your presence at the visitation or funeral service, meant so much to me.
Your sympathy and kindness during this difficult time for me is greatly appreciated, and words cannot adequately express my gratitude.
Denis was a loving husband and his caring for others has touched so many hearts. He will be remembered forever.
Thanks again, from the bottom of my heart.
Lavina"
