We lost our mother on Wednesday last after a long and difficult trial with dementia. It was a strange Covid era funeral, limited to 25 mourners within the church. The undertaker reminded me of a bouncer vetting people entering a pub or nightclub! But the attendance limitation had it's upside, making for a much more intimate affair. My dad, who died back in 2006 loved LotSW and I'm sure it was through him, hogging the TV watching episodes, that I began to like the show back then. My mother was totally bereft when he died. She was never one for watching TV but for a long time after he died I would walk into her house and SW would be on the TV. I think that in a sense, it was one of the ways she could feel close to him by watching what she knew he liked so much.
Rest in Peace mam. You deserve that peace after such a long ordeal with a truly horrible, insidious disease.
