Happy Willow walk

1st Willow walk of 2020. Shore path from Bo'ness to Blackness and back.
2019 had far too many losses and Willow was one of the hardest. Andrew and Amy celebrate the fact that she is their daughter, but have to bear that she is not with them. We will continue Willow walking and let you see where we get to. Hugs A+A.
Dad had left us long before he went. A cruel elongated bereavement, he left Mum, who really isn't sure what happened to him, when she remembers. She remains happy in her bubble of the moment. Lynda's Mum, Evelyn, was so sudden it was a shock. She had continued to be part of the extended family after Lynda died, included by her wonderful grandchildren and son in law until the end.
My friend Barbara Buda, who had carried her burden of spina bifida from birth with such strength and humour. Luckily we all attended the first ever party that she self-hosted, which she was rightly delighted with herself for. She helped many people counselling church ministers for their yearly sessions and priests from the whole of Scotland wanted to officiate at her funeral. They were limited to three assisting. Her infectious positivity should be carried forth out of 2019.
To the friends and family who lost their loved ones, I offer two ears and you are welcome to test my kettle using skills anytime. There is an open door and safe haven for anyone who wants or needs it and hugs are 'almost', mandatory.
There were lots of positive wonderful events too that we will treasure from last year and wish the newest Mr and Mrs. Easton well, most especially.
Willow walk love to all.
