To Dara & family. So sad & shocked to hear the news of your mums passing. She had a beautiful sole and loved her garden which she was immensely proud of. I always enjoyed a chat when I was out walking, she loved sharing family stories and the latest news. My thoughts are with you all at this difficult time. Love Robyn

I was so sad to hear of Mrs Holman's passing .. especially so soon after Mr Holman's passing. I have very fond memories of Mrs Holman whilst visiting #11 East Street with Dara when I was younger. Mrs Holman was always so elegantly dressed and her hair just so. She always liked to stop for a chat .. especially to tell me what "the children" and grandchildren were up to.
Sending lots of love and our condolences to her family from the Willoughby/Jackson's.
And please take some comfort that she is back with Mr Holman again xxx
