Event Type: Funeral
8th May 2018
Thank you so very much for your beautiful singing at my mother’s funeral last Tuesday. I am very sorry that I was not able to come and thank you in person on the day but my family were anxious to travel to the committal without delay. Lots of friends and family have since told me how beautiful they found the service and your singing played a large part in that and we are therefore hugely grateful to you - and for your assistance and professionalism in helping us to organise the service.

Just a note to say a massive thank you for yesterday, you were absolutely amazing and your Ave Maria bought a tear to my eye. I wanted to thank you in person but by the time we got through the church you were gone. Thank you again, you have the voice of an angel.

Our residents were performed to by Kathleen Linton-Ford, a talented mezzo-soprano with a wonderfully varied repertoire and stunning voice. Our residents loved her performance and her friendly and relaxed manner put them all at ease. She sang several well-known opera arias and modern tunes. Our residents were visibly moved with many comments about her high quality voice and performance. We look forward to hosting Kathleen again throughout the year. A talent and performance not to be missed.
