Memorial service for Joan Pearce - Wednesday 18th August
A moving memorial service and interment of ashes for Joan Pearce who regularly worshiped at St Luke's was held on the 18th August.
Rachel Attwell (Joan's daughter) sent this e-mail :
Dear all,
I have just returned to Brighton after a couple of days (away from technology) and wanted to thank you so much for Mum's service of thanksgiving on Wednesday. I wonder if you could communicate in some way, via the pulpit or newspage on the website, my thanks to everyone who played their part and allowed us to finally lay Mum to rest alongside her beloved husband. Having taken so long to be able to do so maybe makes me all the more grateful.
I hope I haven't forgotten anyone when I say thank you to Helen for conducting the service, for enabling us to do it the way we wanted; to Judy and then Bernie for all the organisation both in advance and on the day itself; to Graham for the music, the suggestions of music and playing so beautifully; to Ruth & Joyce who I thought were helping me with the refreshments but who were so amazing, they refreshed me and allowed me to reconnect with many people from Mum's life (and, in part, my own) and made it all appear so seamless; thank you to everyone who joined us for the service, for your singing and prayers, for your good wishes and friendship, for the part you played in Mum's life for so many years.
From the bottom of my heart, and for ever, thank you.
Rachel (Attwell née Pearce)
