As suggested on the other thread I am happy to arrange the tribute with any left over money sent to the hospice.
Obviously some of our members will beable to attend the funeral but for those of us who cannot and would like to include themselves in sending a tribute please pm or email me.
I have £15 so far.

You have a PM Olive
And one from me, too, Olive
Your message box is full Olive.
I've emptied it ;)
have sent you a pm
Cheques arrived from:
Agapanthus
MrsKP
Grandma
Maggie
Biscombe
Mrs Dunseith
I'm in contact with a florist who is lovely and will do her best to design something unique for our 'supersprout'. I've told her it must include straw and veg of some kind.
If you have any ideas please post them so that I can get back to her today.
Many thanks Emma
Did my PayPal go through??
My cheque should be there? XX Jeannine
Hi OliveOil, glad the cheque arrived safely (Mrs D). It's making me smile at the thought of this floral tribute with straw and veg in lol ;D
Said it before and I'll say it again! thanks to OliveOil for organising this. Love the straw and veg idea!
Hellooooo all - Thanks Kitten - glad you are accounted for!
Just to let people know that it still isn't too late to send in tribute cheques... as I said all left over money will be sent to the hospice but so far we have barely covered the flowers with today's cheques, though I'm sure with the other pledges we should have enough and to send to the hospice too.
Thank you soooo much guys.
Now whilst I'm arranging with the florists... Could anyone make up a short poem to summarise our SS for the card? I could think of something but team effort here I think!
I know this isn't the place to "advertise" other messageboards, but on another she was active on, there are a number that seem to be able to write poems. Maybe one of them could.
Jeannine and Shilton - have received... thank you so much
Kenkew - loved your poem!
In fact I was thinking there is no reason why we can't submit various poems or messages and I can laminate it and post it over to the florist to send with the flowers.
Received from CornyKev and Wendy :)
Flowers ordered with Fiona Hogg Floral Designs. I'll post a picture when it comes through from Fiona.
Bless you OliveOil, thanks for all you have done for us and Sarah. It is lovely to know we have sent some flowers when I can't get there. I shall plan to do something special to think of her and Will on Thursday. T.x
I really wish I could go on Thursday too... but I have to work... am going to meet Woody though after work, to talk chilli's!
Received from Prink13, Emma-Jane and someone else... will check the cards again downstairs.
Oh, thank you everyone who sent cards - i am getting quite a collection, they are lovely!
Thanks again Olive Oil for all you have done. Three cheers for OO. :-*
Oh sush Kev.. no need for all that malarky
Received from Norfolklass ;D
Now i just have to write the card and get it over to Fiona (she's been employed by Buck Palace and the Queen to do floral arrangements - only the best for our Supersprout hey!)
Off for a bath and a think of what to write - so much to say on such a little card :(
It was just right, Olive- thanks for organising.
Thanks so much Olive Oil.
xxxxx
Thanks from me too, OO.
Yep, thanks from me too OO, sounds like it was just right :-* x
It was no trouble at all guys... just waiting for the remaining cheques to go in the bank and then the rest will go to the hospice.
Did my cheque arrive OK Emma? And could someone post a photo of what we sent?
Thanks for all you did, OliveOil xxx
Hi everyone. I have just been sent these pictures of the floral tribute you sent for Sarah. I'm certain she'd have loved it. G x

Kathi

It was just as I had hoped. Thanks for posting the pics.
Just perfect for our lovely Supersprout! Thanks so much for posting the pics. (I still can't bring myself to delete my last two PMs from her.)
Me too Grandma. Ive still got mine in my message box
me to with messages. She would do this ::) .
Aww thanks for posting this - i think the tribute was just right!!!
yes you clever girl! just remember how versatile you are when you come to that interview tomorrow. I'm willing the shades of Sarah and Peter to be there to help you. (Peter got me my promotion ... before we were an item. ;))
aww grawc thats really sweet - I'm sure they will be smiling down on me willing me to do my best! ;D
I can assure you that Peter will and I'm pretty sure that Sarah will be there too. Go for it!!!
Wow, thanks for posting that G, it looks like it was absolutely perfect - well done OO, you did us all proud :-* (and good luck for the int x)
I agree - just perfect - she would have loved it. Thanks for posting the pics OO and for organising it at the time. I've still got PMs from her too.
Me too ! ;D
I guess we all have! Sentimental bunch aren't we?
Yes i have too!!! cant ever delete them
Another post and card keeper here. Thought about Sarah lots yesterday whilst on my plot, up to my ears in straw inspecting stuff grown from her donated seeds. I hope Will is doing ok.
Loved the tribute OO, and thanks Georgie for posting the pics.
Yeah, I've saved emails and cards too. I understand that Will is fine although I haven't heard from him directly.
G x
Is anyone directly in contact with Will?
The tribute to Sarah was so apt. Thanks for showing the pics G. My camera was with me but didnt like taking pics at a funeral somehow!! I too have all the messages from Sarah. Its strange how none of us can erase them. She was a special lady. :'(
Like you, Carol, I didn't feel able to take pictures at the funeral. But I am glad that these pictures were passed on to me to share with A4A members.
Anne, I know people who are in direct contact with Will and I'd be happy to pass on a message if you want me to.
G x
Just to let him know I'm still here G and that I'd happily be in touch via our former channels or just grawrc@hotmail.com
Thanks G! :-* :-*
Consider it done. :)

Just caught up with this, again thanks OO for oranising and georgie great piccie, I can see Sarah smiling down on us now. :)
