  1. Hi this is Fay flatman.the reason I have not attended uncle bob or auntie Ollie’s funeral is I have my own medical problems and am waiting on an op. It would have to be a big roadblock for me not to attend a king funeral. I told auntie Ollie why I could not get down and she said that you can only do what you can do. I have a serious medical condition and am awaiting urgent operation. Love to you all from Fay flatman.
