SAD NEWS RE PATILY- MISS PATRICIA SELMAN

  • I was truly sorry to hear of Patily’s passing and my heartfelt condolence to all who knew her in person and online here.  She was a lovely person and will be sorely missed. 

    Thank you Shari for the link to Pat’s service.  It was beautiful and Loch Garten will be even more special to us now.

    RIP Pat and fly high with the osprey

  • Thank you to everyone for watching her service online and all the lovely comments 

    She is dearly missed and we gathered at her flat after the service 

    Also she had a perspex bird feeder which I have taken to where I work with people with Dementia 

    Nit many birds had used it but on Tuesday on the day I was leaving to travel to funeral a beautiful Robin appeared and fed on the feeder , I do believe was a sign from dear Pat 

    I do have some spare order if services 

    Do let me know if you would like one 

    Mary the celebrant was lovely and my two boys help carry pat in 

    I found it hard to sing but managed to compose myself 

    The snow at Golders Green made it even mire poignant 

    I sm gathering all her osprey pics , and found her notebooks on her observations over the years 

    I will try and send some here 

    Many thanks 

    Sharon and family xxxx

  • Shari - Thank you so much for all your updates at this sad time for you and the family.

    My life has been somewhat of a roller coaster this year, and I am so sorry to say I missed the funeral.  There was mention that it might be available as a recording at some point. Is there a link I could use to be able to watch it?  

    It will be a poignant time of year not to have Patily with us as the first osprey start to return.

    If you enlarge this you should be able to read it fine

    I can't find my doc where I typed it up... typical!

  • I tried last night and again just now but the funeral directors do not have it on line yet, it does say they try to do this within 2 days and that was posted at 11am on the 8th, hopefully tomorrow.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

  • I haven't been able to get it either CL, wonder if I'm doing something wrong?
