    Our thoughts are with all of you as you celebrate Elvira’s long and wonderful life. I looked back and found this photo which really captured the wonderful times our families have had together over the years. It is 11 years ago today (December 14th 2012) since Dad passed away and his memory remains strong in our minds and hearts – just as Elvira will in yours.
    All the best; The Amantea and Blackwell families.
