Ivan's Good Causes

Hi Everyone

Averil has asked me to let you know how grateful she and the family are for all your kind words on the blog and the cards and messages that have been sent to the house. She says that the flowers have been great but she is now running out of vases!

Ivan has left some clear instructions as to what should happen with regards his funeral (why doesn't that surprise us - organised to the last). One of his wishes is that there should be no flowers, instead he wants the money to go to:
a) MacMillan Nurses
b) Sponsoring a South African child's education for a year
c) Supporting an HIV group in Benoni, South Africa
d) Conservation in South Africa.

So Averil has asked that if anyone was planning/thinking of sending her flowers would they mind instead donating the money to one of Ivan's causes. If you send her the money, saying which cause you want to support, she will make sure the money gets there.

The funeral is possibly going to be Saturday 1st May. Averil is waiting so that her family can get acrpss from South Africa & that is being delayed because of the current flight problems.
