Happy #Kateday20!

It’s now almost three years since Kate left us.

And, on 4 July 2020, she would have celebrated her 59th birthday.

We always try to make Kate’s birthday a celebration: a day for family and friends to raise a glass, remembering her fondly and sharing afresh all the fun, laughter, love and happiness she brought into our lives.

We love you Kate. xx
