The link for this site is perfect - Much Loved - Winnie was but I believe it is most appropriate because we were all Much Loved by Winnie. Being loved makes all the difference in the world.
The same thing that made me feel as though i was special to Winnie makes me think of her as special. every time I saw her she had a big hug and said, "Oh Patrick". No other comment was necessary after that.
I am pretty sure that if I were in Ireland my name would be Patrick O'Patrick rather than Patrick Pawlowski. I am a Pawlowski but I will always be Winnie's Oh'Patrick.
She will always be in my heart!

If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
