In Memoriams
This statement is a tribute to Lady Geraldine Holding. Remembering you today as always, an earth angel with whom I had the privilege/honour of calling you my No 1 mum/ my very best friend in all the world.
A real genuine unique lady, beautiful both inside and out who carried herself with dignity and grace. An unsung heroine who devoted her life to helping both humans and animals in need, selflessly without hesitation in a non judgemental way, leaving a lasting legacy to us all.
Gone, never forgotten. Miss you forever with profound sadness. As the world mourns the Queen's passing, I in turn continue to mourn your passing, the Queen of my heart. You were the centre of my universe, a golden lady with a golden heart. Love and respect Diane/Oscar x x
In loving memory. Sadly missed from the Family.
