Due to corona virus and age group due to attend, I am afraid it was a reduced service, 4 family members only. In very unfortunate circumstances and late change to arrangements, once again Teresa proved to be a wonderful asset to your company. With many thanks to Richard who too, had to alter service arrangements.
