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.
