Quote For The Week

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Dear Friends and Neighbours,
Christmas Day has come and gone and the New Year is on it's way.
I sincerely hope that you all found some love and light even if it was in some small way yesterday and that you have hope and a goal for the coming week and the fresh new year.
I read this today and would like to share it with you.

Inner Beauty is Everything
People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in; their true beauty is revealed
only if there light is from within.
By Elizabeth Kubler Ross

Take care Friends.
With kind and warm regards
Rhonda Diprose
Funeral Celebrant

PS. I am on Duty now and over the new year if anyone is in the sad place of needing a dedicated and committed Funeral Celebrant.
