18.6.1932 – May Statham - 30.7.24 May Statham a lady a lady so fine Some did say she was divine She went through life So full of zest And as a mother she was one of the best May could be stubborn, stubborn it’s true When she said No! You knew what to do But for her family and husband Jack She’d pull out the stoppers and never look back For family, she’d go To the end of the earth This was her measure and her worth May, you were with us for ninety two years Had a few laughs and shed a few tears Hughie, Peter, June, Ann and Pauline To all five children you know what you mean You loved them, clothed them, a story you told Always there to see them on the right road Now you have gone into heaven above To join with Jack. The husband you love Your life was full and rich from the start And you shall remain, forever in our heart. By Peter Newell.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
