With Love...

Dearest friends, Roxi here,

As some of you may know, Joey Ludbrook is about to depart jolly old England and is homeward bound for good (we think!).

Sadly, Richard's grave remains without a headstone. There are a few reasons it hasn't happened yet, firstly we needed to wait a certain period of time before it could be done. Then we wanted to come up with something as creative and individual as the man himself, which took a bit of thinking and pondering. As it turns out we have to abide by the regulations of the churchyard anyway, so we will go with something simple and understated.

The final hurdle holding us back from getting on with it, is that the headstone will cost £1,850!

Now, Joey and I are well aware that most of you have already been more than generous when times were tough and dad was hospitalised. But we thought maybe, just maybe, some of you might like to chuck in a couple of quid to help get things going.

This PayPal "donate button" still active....

Much love to you all, have wonderful Christmasses and look after each other.

Roxane.
