112. Bertha Elizabeth Pringle, 1922 - 2010

Otherwise known as Granny.

A truly talented, but humble, painter.

A mean maker of chocolate fridge cake and meringues.

A wholly rubbish cook, but it didn't much matter.

A keen eater of chocolate, and nut yogurts.

A beautiful, sensitive pianist.

A beautiful woman, with no thought of beauty.

A properly dangerous driver.

A devoted wife, and mother.

A committed Antiques Roadshow viewer.

A generous, kind, patient, giving, funny, supportive, proud grandmother.

She has gone to a place full of loved ones who've missed her. We are poorer for her loss.
