The last year

2007 November - 2009 January

Created by Mum and Dad 15 years ago
Moira’s last year was very special. Her body had deteriorated – she went through a horrible experience over Christmas 2007. She hung on and said “I enjoy life”. This year she grew up – became independent of her parents – in her own ‘student’ digs. She formed yet new relationships and told us again – “I love being with people – people who give themselves willingly to enjoy my life with me”. She always preferred live music to recorded. We use to take her to the Albert hall, other concerts, Jazz, - she loved the bussle of people. She loved the pub – first the Prince of Wales and latterly the Mount Edgcombe where we went every Sunday evening for the past year. We know she enjoyed music at home, Sussi’s bar, the Guinea Butt, the Grey Lady – it was the live music she enjoyed most – especially those who gave her the time to converse directly with her. So many of our new friends in Tunbridge Wells and surrounds have come about through a direct link through Moira. So what is it that Moira has brought to us all? It is the warmth of people It’s her ability to connect with so many people – to make them feel they are special. It’s Moira’s ability to go on living and enjoying her life to the maximum I know I am speaking for her when I say to everyone here and those unable to be here today: “Thank you, thank you for making my life so full – I am still with you – enjoy your lives to the full – remember its people that’s important – nothing else.”
