Thinking back to when we were kids at Colyton School, our lives were enriched by the entrance of Maria and Donna. Those were wonderful times! Endless summers, horse riding, mucking about on farms.
Later in our lives, we caught up occasionally. Those were good chats, I admired how much Maria did, and how calmly she approached the worst times.
Much love to Maria's husband, parents, Donna, and indeed all her extended family.

Rest in Peace Maria. Sending love and light to your family.

Many memories with Parent to Parent and trying to raise our children at that time.Such a pleasure being a part of her life.Rest in peace now
