MILNE (Stonehaven/Aberdeen/Ballater)

Lisa, Michael, Laura and Graham would like to thank all family and friends for the kindness, love and support received following the loss of our mum and partner. The messages, cards, flowers and thoughtful gestures have meant so much to us and have brought real comfort during such a difficult time. Hearing your memories of Trudie and knowing how much she meant to so many far and wide, has been a great source of strength and something we will always treasure. We would also like to thank everyone who attended, and those who joined us virtually, to celebrate her life. Our sincere thanks to Celebrant John McRuvie for telling her story in such a personal and meaningful way. We are extremely grateful to Jack Henderson and the team at Brian Smith Funeral Services for their professionalism, care and compassion throughout. Many thanks to the staff at Baldarroch Crematorium and Martin the piper for his excellent piping skills. A special thank you to Margaret and her team, Andy, Omar, Elaine and Freya of Ballater Golf Club for hosting a wonderful gathering afterwards. We are truly grateful for the generous donations made in Trudie’s’ memory, totalling £1,400. These donations will sponsor 13 Buttony Bears, with the remainder going to Scotland’s’ Charity Air Ambulance. Your kindness and support will always be remembered.
