Thank You Jenny

Thank you Jenny.

You have given me everything I could have ever hoped for in my Life. We supported each other as we found purpose and direction in our lives together.

You will always inspire and guide us as we continue to live meaningful and fulfilling lives through amazing experiences we find and make with ourselves and our friends.

We will always remember you and honour your memory.

We live on in your Afterglow ..
