THanks for sharing the details with us all, I have been thinking of Gaynor and her friends and family for the majority of the day and trying to hold the tears back, I know today wasnt supposed to be a sad day it was suppose to be a celebration of her life, but I cant help but cry as I type this.

Thank you Helen for sharing with us. Have been thinking for Gaynor and her family all day, especially at 3.00, when I wasn't in a position to go outside and release a balloon.

When we were sitting in the service I did think about all of Gaynor's GR friends - I know you were there in spirit. nell

Thank you Nell for your description of the service for Gaynor. It sounded just what she would have wanted. Today has been gloriously sunny here and at three pm I thought of her and how she had been blessed with such courage. Sue

Nell thankyou for letting us know, i sat outside Canterbury Cathedral today, and had a quiet thought about Gaynor, and a young man in his 20's , a stranger, stopped and gave me some pink blossom as he was passing, i got quite choked. May Gaynor always shine with her star sandra
