Dearest Tuck
You will be greatly missed by many.
But hopefully you will be reunited with Simon your son.
So my tears turn into smiles when I think of you both being together again.
What an incredible lady you was.
Rest in peace

Heather and I are honoured to have known Tuck for most of our lives. Our mum Betty was very close to Tuck for many years. Tuck was very kind, generous and friendly to our families. She always remembered our birthdays and sent lovely cards written in her signature pen. We often visited Tuck, for a cuppa tea and a cake. We laughed, enjoyed chatting about our families, and remembering events in the past.
We will miss her.

Dear Tuck, what a special person you were. I met you first through Badenoch Riding Club, you were so enthusastic, such an inspiration, you came to club events hail rain and shine to volunteer while we all competed ! Your passion for animals, ponies and dogs, in so many ways you became my hero. Your friendship I treasured. Your warmth, concern for others was truly from your heart. Your legandry letters so full of life and stories, all these I will never forget and so so much more. RIP my dear friend.

Dearest Tuck, I can never thank you enough for trusting me with Tamarindus. We had so much fun and I learnt so much. You were a wonderful, generous sometimes outrageous lady and very much loved xxx

Dear Tuck
You were a kind and steadfast friend to us over many years. It was so good of you to take the time to keep in touch. It was a pleasure to receive your correspondence. Envelopes often carried a special stamp and your elegant handwriting in proper ink was immediately identifiable. There was always a card from you on my Birthday. Thank you. You helped to inspire my habit of sending cards.
As I grew older I came to appreciate your kind interest in others, your curiosity in the world and your empathy. You noticed and remembered things. There was so much to admire: your independence of mind and approach to living and the devotion to animals including your beloved Standard Poodles and horses.
It was wonderful that you were able to be at Emma and David’s wedding in 2018. You will be much missed.
Sincerely,
Rochelle White
Tuck was the best Godmother you could wish for.My children thought for years she owned the post office,the timely arrival of cards and letters on birthdays anniversaries and Christmas.Tuck taught me the significance of writing a handwritten letter.In latter years we enjoyed the trip to the pub on her birthday. Thanks for your love and support Tuck…..a very special person

Dearest Tuck
We have been friends for almost 40 years, and I am so going to miss being able to see you, exchange cards, letters and phone calls. We shared our absolute love of all animals. You were very special to me.
With love, Elaine Forryan
Dear Tuck,
It has been an honour to know you all these years. It was as a small horse mad girl that i first met you at the trecking centre at the Coylumbridge Hotel in Scotland. This was the start of a lifelong friendship, not only for me but for my parents, who I know held you very dear in their hearts. You enriched my childhood years and i look back and smile at those wonderful times.
There was always a card and a letter on my birthday, written in your beautiful handwriting.
You will be so very missed.
Helen Williams
Dearest Tuck, a deep sadness has filled my heart with your departure, and yet, alongside flows a tranquil stream of gratitude, pleasure and hope. You have been an amazing and wonderful woman, providing a guiding light during those moments of despair, for which I am truly thankful. Within you there was immense warmth, kindness and empathy, exceptional traits that I will always remember you for. A mother to my best friend, so many cherished memories, may your spirits be reunited.
Rest in peace, lots of love and hugs Theo xxx
Dearest Tuck, thank you for always making me feel so welcome. I will miss your cheeky smile and sense of humour, and your kind heart. As much as you will missed here on Earth you will now be reunited with Simon in the Spirit World.
Lots of love Candy xxx
Sorry I’m late Tuck, I’ve just found out. We met in Oslo in 1961, and remained good friends ever since. So many good memories of Scotland and Kew, will miss you so much, our shared love of Norway and dogs
Your good friend
