Hi all,
I've just noticed via Facebook that taxi passed away last night ... I don't really know what to say but thought you should all know
Oh no! I am so sorry to hear this (and my card will have been picked up from the post box this morning, I feel awful sending it now)
Must use my stash up!0 -
RIP Taxi. I never met you but feel as though I know you from your posts. Condolences to all family and friends0

Ohhhhhh no no no
Taxi ... you cheered me up so many times when things were getting me down. I will never forget your support and kind words - they really did mean so much and I can't believe I'll not see messages from you popping up anymore.
I'll look out at the stars tonight and am sure there will be a new one up there, rest easy dear lady xxGrocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

Rest in peace Taxi - yours was one of the first posts I subscribed to. It was a privilege to read your posts and to share your Blackpool life.
Love to Mr Taxi and children and Grandchildren

KW, please don't feel bad - it sounds like it was all very fast at the end
I went to our central post office to send one just now ... I've no idea what I wrote, tbh ... but if I'd seen the first message from El, I'd have been caught out in exactly the same way.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
