Mary will stay in our hearts for the rest of our earthly life as an example of generosity of heart, and Christian charity and love. We are blessed to have known and loved her. Our heartfelt condolences to Mary's family who must be so very proud of her.

Remembering the best and most dependable neighbour with love and fondness. We loved the way Mary converted her house and created a stunning home and garden. We got to know her well during lockdown, when the residents of Parsons Yard would congregate outside in deck chairs (at a distance) and enjoy drinks or a cream tea for the Platinum Jubilee. Mary worked with us to help design our garden a few years ago. She was so hands on, determined and worked tirelessly (in sandals!), taking me to visit specialist nurseries to source suitable and unusual plants. Her advice was always sound when it came to keeping or replacing plants and what to put where. She was in the process of helping us with our new terrace and garden as part of an extension. She visited the site just before she went in to hospital for the last time, and was able to see a vision of what we desired. We aim to follow her ideas to the letter and with the help of Ricky, create a garden she would have been proud to have been a part of. We will miss her friendship and steadfast presence in Pasons Yard.
