Oh Ray. I’m so sorry to read of Gwen’s passing.

I only met Gwen the once. She was a lovely lady, and I feel I know in a way, like we all do, how much she meant to you and all your family. I’m here if I can do anything. I’ll make contact with you tomorrow at a more sensible time.

We’re all thinking of you. Best wishes. John and family.
