How wonderful, the flowers on Ann’s grave! And next, a ledgerstone ❤️🙏🏼
ALBW 2024 Ann and her two aunt’s plaques reunited again in the same building. The 2 aunt’s plaques have come over from the new St Matthew’s and are now in the tower at the Old St Matthew’s Churchyard. And lots of flowers left for Ann too!
