Thank you so much for providing us the access to watch the fitting farewell to Uncle Brian. He was a wonderful man much loved by us all. It is comforting to think of him reunited with Aunty Fay.
I’m sure he would have appreciated the cat’s attendance and subsequent removal. Condolences to you all.
Love from
Cousin Carla (The OG)
