My Auntie Barbara passed away on December 12th, 2010, after a long battle with cancer.
I attended her funeral just before Christmas on Thursday 23rd. My thoughts are with Peter and family.
Once again I have become aware of what a huge family I belong to and also how little I know about it. Many of the folks I haven’t seen since the Sims family get together held at Henfield, June 2003.
I think it is very sad that we only meet to pay our respects to those that have passed away. It seems a terrible waste that we have not socialised with our relatives and that we are becoming strangers. Our family ties are becoming more tenuous it seems with the passing of my Mums brothers and sisters.
I would like to think that we can undo some of this in the new year.
That’s my new years resolution for 2011.
