Nana's Internment
On Sunday 26th September 1.30pm, we had the internment of Nana's ashes at Awanui Cemetery ..
It was a really lovely day - very healing ..
I did a reading .. Jeff - Elsie's partner (for mum) read the "roses" poem that was in Nana's funeral service sheet .. and Sonje read a beautiful poem from a card she gave to Nana
.. then as Uncle Alan and Uncle Les lowered the ashes in Stefhan (Sonje's son) played the start of Stairway to Heaven on his guitar
.. then we placed flowers in and around the ashes .. and then they both then filled it in .. then we had a moments silence while Stefhan played his guitar
.. was really lovely .. then we all went back to Mum's for afternoon tea
.. was a really nice day :-) .. lots of tears .. but good for the soul :-)
