My Great Aunt Alice died on Sunday morning at 07.30.
Also I had intended to write a long(ish) post in her honour today, to remind myself why I loved her and to share some funny stories with you.

I've just found out that the library is closing at 17.00 instead of 17.30 and now I won't have time.

I will post more about her when I can though - she was a great woman and I loved her more than my Grandmother. The funeral will be next week sometime and I know I will find it hard to get through.

We went to see her in hospital on Friday, although it was only to show we cared as she was expected to be out within days. Mum said to me on the way there, "You do have something to wear to the funeral don't you, if and when it comes up?" Which really made me laugh at the time as she's spent most of my life trying to get me out of black. I said, "Mum! If anyone has black clothes it's me!" I had no idea I'd be wearing them so soon.

Alice Doyle RIP.
