Member Since: March 2005 Posts: 125 Send Message	Hello Liz Proud, oh my word yes! I always knew Mum worked hard to help many on here, but i admit i did not fully appreciate just how much, i also did not realise that she used her own money to help and never said a word to who ever she was researching for (my Dad told me this a few days ago), but it wasnt about money for Mum, it was about helping others....everything about my Mum was unconditional. Liz, your support , well what can i say? I hope you know my dear friend xx

	Donna, your Mum and her unconditional love and support for people, what a lady! It's the way we should all aspire to behave and then there would be less unhappiness in the world perhaps. Thanks for your kind words, all teary now, lol Lizxx

Member Since: August 2008 Posts: 4 Send Message	Hi Donna I've only just read about Bernice. God bless her. I have never had the good fortune to meet her, but I am sure that she has touched many peoples' lives without them even knowing it was her guiding hand. Another bright star twinkling down on us to help to show us the way. Thinking of you at this very difficult time. Sarah
