I texted Amy yesterday:
Hello Amy,
Just a quick text to say I hope you are all okay. Sometimes it is after the funeral that it all hits you. Stay tough!
I am pleased to say Manky Monkey Motors donated £108.00 plus £27.00 Gift Aid (hopefully) to GIST Support UK in your Dad's memory.
With kindest regards,
Janice (JJ)

I wasn't expecting a reply but Amy replied today:
Thankyou very much for your text! And thanks to everyone who donated
that's amazing! We raised nearly £300 in the charity pot we had on the bar at dads wake! And not sure on the total amount of other donations yet but when I find out I will let you know! And Thankyou for your flowers. He would have absolutely loved it xxx
===============================
As you know from a previous post, the money from MMM was donated to GIST Support UK on the 23/10/2015. I didn't want to contact Mark's family to let them know just after the funeral so I have waited until now.
I think Amy's text is a nice positive note to end on.
