So sorry to hear of your loss Manera family. When I lost my parents, I found huge comfort in praying to Jesus. Also, talk to each other about Dad and Mum, and give each other lots of hugs. I’ve found that grief comes in waves, so keep on encouraging each other as some of you may be coping well, but others will be sad. Then it will be the other way round. Love each other.
Have been thinking of you all at this sad time the Totara Valley Manera family, RIP peace Margret you were a lovely lady and kind and fore ever the same person day in and day out. One of lifes great people.
