Angela,
Forty one years ago, you brought over a pot pie to welcome the Solomon family as neighbours, briefly.
Inexplicably, almost instantly, a mental chemistry bonded our two families together with unquestioning
love. We shared our children; our homes; memories of watching birds and sunsets, a sea-sick then lovely
sailing holiday; supported each other through my family's extended pains, your sudden and devastating
tragedies. Separately we wandered the world but space and time did not divide us nor lessen our
unspoken mutual understanding. Nor will death. As you join John and Dev, Mattie and Ma, take with
you the undying love of Sheilah.
