Hi Everyone,
I'm sorry to tell you that NAN7 died on 9th December '23.
Nan7 joined us in 2021, so her journey wasn't long but a difficult one. She told me in October that there was nothing more they could do and she was moving into St. John's Hospice, which was near her home.
We had kept in contact until recently when she sent me her goodbye message. She was well looked after in the hospice seeing Howard and the family daily.
As I am in Scotland, I can't be there at her funeral but if anyone is in Doncaster and wants to pay their respects, please get in touch with me for details.
Nan7 (Helen) was a lovely lady who decided not to post near the end of life because she did not want to upset new members and she said she didn't know what to say, so asked me to post for her after she died!

Hi Eddie, I will forward you the email with the details via Personal Message Page as I have accepted your friends request. Thank you!
The family have said family flowers only and are asking for donations to McMillan using Helen's name to donate.
I have sent you a Personal message you access via top right, next to your login avatar that looks like an envelope.
