Saturday, 15 April, 2023: Sad news that Barbara’s brother John died peacefully in his sleep early this morning so I’m keen to finish the little grey sketchbook which started at the beginning of January when he was taken ill. His last short walk with us was at Thornes Park on Monday 9th January and he was taken into hospital the following weekend when it was expected that he had just days to live.
During the three months that he has been in Pontefract Hospice it’s been a welcome distraction for me to work on my John Carr Redbox Gallery display and I finished work on that today.
Looking forward to making a fresh start with my new sketchbooks.
Richard I am so sorry for your and Barbara’s loss. I have especially enjoyed your recent drawings from your hospice visits. For me they have assured that Life Goes On and drawing is always with us. Peace be with you. Rachel
