Dear Linda and Rafe, It is hard to fathom that such a lovely family has had to endure so much pain and loss. I only met India twice but I know how much she filled your lives with love and joy. Her battle is over and she can rest in peace with her dad. Alex will care for her now. Lots of love

My sincere condolences to family, on the passing of dear sweet India. Even though it was just a short time I cared for India. India showed such courage and strength right to the end.

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put His arms around you
And whispered Come to me.

With tearful eyes we watched you
As you slowly slipped away
And though we loved you dearly
We couldn't make you stay.

Your golden heart stopped beating
Your tired hands put to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best

Dear Linda
I was shocked and saddened to hear of India's passing. She was a lovely girl and I enjoyed having her on my squash team in 2018, as well as meeting you and getting to know your story. My thoughts are with you and your family at this tragic time. Sending much love and strength to you all, Ali Lawley

My dear friend Linda. It is only 11 years since we met, but in that time we have become firm friends. I really value your friendship, not just for movie and food outings, but everything else we have in common, such as travel and gardening. Words can't express what you and Rafe and Sue and Warren and Lesley are going through. Love to you all. Lois x x
