The Funeral

I have been lucky enough to photograph Lester many times, but never before on a sad occasion..
His sister, my friend and neighbour, was buried today and her family and friends are still in shock, over two weeks later.

Her death was totally unexpected, and she was too young.

She was a happy, selfless person, who made her mark on many people and contributed much to the community.
Her funeral reflected this, and there were hundreds there, a fraction of whom were in the little church, pictured here.
The overflow was in the community hall, where the service was streamed.

She would have been moved and humbled by the outpouring of love and respect paid her.

Vale Karen.
