(text copied from a mass-mail I just sent; I don't have the heart to type it all out again)


Hi everyone. I wish I was writing with good news, but unfortunately I'm not.

My mother passed away last night, around 8pm. She was at home until the end, and died with her husband Guy, myself, my cousin Ingrid and aunt Gilda holding her hands or patting her arms. She had a chance to say goodbye to everybody, and wasn't in any pain at the end.

Here's funeral information in case any of you are close by and would like to attend:

Funeral for Julia Neale, Wednesday, July 21, 7:00 p.m.
Visitation also on Wednesday, from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.. A small reception will be held after the funeral.

Visitation, funeral and reception will all be held at the West Chapel of McGarry Family Chapels, (Hulse, Playfair & McGarry).
