 So heartbroken to lose one of my best friends of over 40 years. Always more than a mother in law, she loved unconditionally, and I will miss her terribly. Reunited once again with her soul mate Gerry in the afterlife, I'm sure they are just dancing and singing as always.

 I met Tess when a group of us went to the clubs Gym, she was such a lovely lady to have a conversation with,
 I looked forward to having a chat with her. She will be missed.

You will have lovely memories.
