    Dear Auntie Dru,

    May you rest in eternal peace as you join Uncle Pat. Always glamorous in my memory.

    Drusilla and I were were good friends at Notting Hill and Ealing High School in the 1950s. We had many happy times together and I have fond memories of holidays with her in Dunster at the riding stables. She was an accomplished horsewoman and I remember her lovely voice singing joyfully as we rode along. We lost touch for many years but then connected again at school reunions and also met for very enjoyable visits. Rest in peace dear friend.

    I was very fortunate to have gotten to meet my future mother in law April 2022, two years before her passing. She was kind and excited David & I found each other. I got to hear a few funny & embarrassing stories Dru told about her eldest son. We bought greeting gifts for each other for good measure. She talked about enjoying all our pictures and adventures which David continued to send to her electronic frame. It was a very nice experience and I’m thankful I gad the chance to meet Drusilla and spend a few days with her. I believe she would be very proud of how David prepared her funeral. May she rest in eternal peace.
