Angela's story: A loving farewell to treasure

“Losing someone you love is never easy, but the way we say goodbye can make all the difference.”

Angela has kindly shared her story in support of our Meadow of Memories appeal in remembrance of her partner, Darryl, who was cared for by the Hospice team in 2023.

“The care Darryl received at Hospice in the Weald in his final days was a blessing I will never forget. The kindness and support we experienced provided peace in an incredibly difficult time, and I hope by dedicating a butterfly in Darryl’s memory, that other families can find the same comfort we did.

“Just as a butterfly’s journey is one of change and renewal, so too is our journey of grief and remembrance. Whenever I see a butterfly, I think of Darryl. They’ve become a symbol of remembrance, reminding me that our loved ones are never truly gone.

“By dedicating a butterfly in his memory, I’m not only honouring him, but also helping another family receive the care and compassion that meant so much to us.”

“I hope you will consider supporting Hospice in the Weald by dedicating a butterfly in memory of someone special. Your kindness will bring peace and comfort to families when they need it most.”
