In Loving Memory of
Maisie Hopkinson

Take photographs of the ones you love. A moment of inconvenience is far better than a lifetime of regret. Memories are invaluable but they can sometimes be fleeting. Photographs often provide a trigger for our recollections, ensuring they are not lost to time.
For twelve wonderful years Maisie provided the motivation in my life. Here I share some cherished memories of my very best friend, cheerleader and closest ally.

One of the occasions Buster met Maisie. They are brother and sister, separated around 6 weeks old. After 3 years, Maisie and I moved to within 500 yards of where they were both born
