Tony Watkins and the family would like to invite you to a joyful funeral service to celebrate Sue’s life.
St Mary’s Church*
Saturday, 14th May, 2 pm
Everyone who knew Sue is welcome to join us. It will be informal and she requested that everyone wears bright colours.
To protect our older relatives, we would respectfully ask that, if possible, anyone attending does a Lateral Flow Test that morning, and wears a mask. If not, please just sit nearer the back (and don't breathe on Tony!).
Refreshments (drinks + cakes) will be served after the service and there will be a chance for everyone to read her 'Mission Boards' of things that were important in her life. (She wouldn't have wanted us to miss an opportunity!)
We know that many people may be unable to attend, so a video recording of the service will be available to view later. Once it has been uploaded (hopefully by Wednesday 18th), it will be visible here. https://vimeo.com/711967983/1431b7c631
(If you click on the link and it does not take you straight there, please just cut and paste it into your browser).
If you cannot attend, and would like us to send you an order of service, please let us know as per paragraphs below.
We are also inviting everyone to help us with a memory ‘book’ of fond / funny memories, photos or stories about how she has made a difference to people’s lives. These can be electronic eg document / photo / video clip to celebratingsue2022@yahoo.com (Please be aware that when we respond from 'celebratingsue' it seems to end up in people's junk folders.)
Alternatively, things can be posted to 'Celebrating Sue', 69 Raymond Crescent, Guildford, GU2 7SU, or dropped to 12 Berry Head Road, Brixham, TQ5 9AH. Please enclose your name, how you knew Sue and whether you are happy for your comments to be just for the family, or more widely available.
You can also leave messages here on Sue's memorial / donation page www.susanwatkins.muchloved.com
Rather than flowers, she requested donations to her favourite charities (Shelter Box, Mercy Ships or USPG Tanzania), which you can do below. She was passionate about people donating with GiftAid whenever they could, so you can do this below or via: www.susanwatkins.muchloved.com
In the evening, as per Sue’s instructions, we will be having a party at Lupton House, Brixham Road, Churston Ferrers, Brixham, TQ5 8LB. starting at 6.30pm with a hot buffet served from 7pm. Bar closes at 11.30. ‘Carriages at midnight’ *
*see detail below
Please remember to GiftAid if possible. If you can't donate on-line, please send any donations by cheque to Stockmans funeral directors, in the name of one of her charities that you wish to support.
