RIP Eve Kirkland (My cousin)

 Last night, after a long illness, my dear cousin Eve passed away. She was a wonderful woman and supported me when I 'came out' to my family and friends. Here she was with my mum outside 'The Shroppie Fly' pub a few years ago. They were very close and shared their interest in completing crosswords.


R.I.P. Eve.
