My wonderful Aunt Alice died one year ago on the 27th September 2011 - a very sad day indeed for the family and friends that loved her so very much.

On Saturday 29th September along with my husband and parents, we visited Foulden Village Hall where she had been Chairperson to see Alice's pub table that we gifted to the hall following her death. It looks really splendid - they have done a fantastic job of restoration and have placed a photo of Alice here in remembrance of her, which is a lovely gesture.

After a welcome coffee and scone at the village hall, we then went on to Foulden Parish Church just a short distance along the road to have a look at the newly erected headstone. We had chosen a headstone that would be fitting for Alice - something to mirror her young at heart attitude to life and her love of teddy bears. We are very pleased indeed with the choice we made, which I am sure she would have loved - I just wish she could see it!!

The other reclining teddy had sat at her front door for many years and we had used it as a marker for the grave while the headstone was being ordered - we have left it in place as he looks so much at home, still sitting on her doorstep!!
