A new stage in my life...................

[Grannie G]

Thank you Saffie and Chris. I know you understand.

The emotions have kicked in already but they are normal emotions. I will be wishing the ashes on their way to join the Ganges, Dhiren`s dearest wish.

The tide was out this morning when I went for a walk at 9am so I hope it will be in at 2pm when Paul and the family pick me up.

I`m going back with them afterwards to sit in the garden and have something to eat.

It`s a lovely day.

I'm thinking of you all this afternoon Sylvia. xx

 

[Saffie]

It`s a lovely day

It is indeed Sylvia.
You'll be in my thoughts, and I know Dhiren will be in your's for ever x

 

[Grannie G]

Thank you both.

Oh Sylvia-another poignant moment for you and your family; Dhiren's ashes set free to flow to the Ganges. A true moment of freedom for Dhiren. How fitting that you are still doing your best for your Husband on a day that shines as bright as Dhiren's lovely smile.

May the tide be gentle and take Dhiren to where he needs to be, may the wind help guide his Spirit home and, as the waves lap gently on the shores of the Ganges, may Dhiren rest in peace.

All of our wishes will join yours Sylvia in wishing Dhiren a safe journey.

Love

Lyn T XXX

A special day for you all. xxx

Dhiren is discussed in our house too.
When Richard Attenborough died there was talk about Ghandi. I said to Peter 'Sylvia's Dhiren was in the garden for the meeting on the day Ghandi was assassinated'.

'Oh, Yes!' said Peter 'Didn't he sly away on the bus to see Ghandi that day?'

'Indeed he did' I replied.

Not forgotten. xxx

You have been in my heart and thoughts today Sylvia. It's a wonderful thing to be able to perform someone's heartfelt wish. I can only smile and feel joy at the thought of Dhiren's ashes starting out on their journey to the Ganges.

Thank you all so much.

It was so much easier and better than I had expected. The sea was in and we found a quiet and empty place .



This is the exact spot but the tide was in, the steps were covered with water and the sun was shining.

We took turns to scatter the ashes and then we realised a crocodile of EFL students were approaching so we huddled round the cylinder of ashes protecting it from view. There were at least 50 students so it took a while for them to pass and we ended up laughing . It lightened the mood.

I sent the last of the ashes on their way to the Ganges and we went back to Paul`s for afternoon tea.

Paul said `I think dad would have been pleased with today.`

I know he would.

 

[Izzy]

Aw Sylvia. How perfectly lovely. I'm so glad the mood was lightened in that way. Something special to share and look back on. Bon voyage Dhiren. xx

 

[Saffie]

Bon voyage Dhiren. xx

The same sentiment Sylvia.
I'm so glad the tide was in and that it all was calm and just right.
Another bridge in the road crossed. xxx

I'm glad it went well and that there was a little levity also.

It sounds perfect Sylvia, and I could see Dhiren's gentle smile while I was reading about your day xxx
