In Loving Memory of Rita Grace Marston Who sadly passed away on 8th July 2026 — age 94 years young.
A light in our home has gone out,
Yet its glow lingers softly in our hearts.
A voice we cherished has fallen quiet,
But its warmth (and sillyness) still moves through every room.
The space she filled can never be replaced,
For her love shaped the very air around us.
Rest in God’s care, Mum. Reunited with family,
And gathered into the company of all those you loved,
May you be held in eternal peace.
We hope to see you on 17th August - if you wish to bring cut or potted flowers, please bring them to the wake/reception, which will be serving tea and coffee from 1:30pm (for those who wish not to attend the commital). Thank you.
