The obituary notice of Kathleen Violet HUXHAM (Sayer)

Dear Nan,

I cannot say thank you enough for the love you have shown me throughout our time together on this plane, it will never cease to exist within me and I will hold and cherish it for the rest of my time here.

Thank you for the undeniable impact you have had on me. You have always taught me to be confident in myself and my talents while reminding me that my own solace should always come first. You showed me that it’s okay to live life by my own rules by staying true to my own compass, just like you have.

Thank you for being my nan, and in many ways a parent. Thank you for sharing your memories and stories, your honest struggles and great successes, reminding me that our lives are full of chaos, twist and turns but it’s how we navigate that chaos with resilience that ultimately shapes us.

Thank you for welcoming my partner Kyler into your life with never-ending respect for our love with open arms. Thank you for making us laugh with your incredibly humorous wit, for teaching us to follow our own path and to live life to its fullest capacity.

Thank you for sharing your passions for history, tailoring/textiles, gardening, baking and photography. Thank you for giving me access to share your archive of family photographs, letters, documents and newspaper cuttings that you curated and worked so passionately on with this world.

Your life has been an incredible work of art and its legacy will continue to live on through the many people you have touched with your determination to be courageous and to treat others with wholeheartedness.

Thank you for bringing me stillness, reassurance and stability in times of darkness and uncertainty, for listening to me, for supporting and believing in me and for loving me unconditionally. Thank you for everything you have given me, I will always remember your presence in my life as it has been extraordinary to have known you.

Until we dance together again, I love you eternally.

Your grandson, Josh
