Jane, you have been such an important part of my life. We have shared the ups and downs together, our long chats sorting out the various problems and the joys. The laughs we have had on our various holidays from the very first in The Lake District, when you and Paul were still students and I had only just met Martin. These shared times were soon to become and have remained the highlight of each year. I have lost my best friend but I know you will remain in my thoughts and I will always say to myself, ‘what would you think of this or that’. I have loved you like a sister, you are the wisest, kindest, most strong- minded person I think I have ever known and my world is a far lesser place without you. Pat
