I have been in touch with Shane and Rosie's funeral will be held in Manchester next Thursday 18th. Address and final details to follow. He asked if we minded if he put Rosie's Harriers' top on the coffin as she was a proud and happy member of the Harriers. I said it was a lovely idea and we would be honoured if he did. He said he is happy for us to send some flowers and that sunflowers and daffodils were her favourites but that people are also making donations to www.justgiving.com/Rosie-and-Shane.

I have detailed the information of Rosie's Funeral below for those of you that can make it. If you know anyone that is looking to attend that I have not contacted please feel free to forward this email and if possible can i have a final update on numbers by wed 5pm? I know these will not be accurate or final but help me try to organise teas and coffees etc
FLOWERS As many of you know it is Shane and Sidney's wishes that instead of flowers people donate to the registered charity and in this way the money goes towards saving lives. Rosie and Shane have been working in supporting the charity for 2 years and the ambulances will be a lasting memory to her.
