No flowers by request but donations to Hospice Malta, Balzan, would be a way for others to continue enjoying the care the family got from these wonderful souls or to Fondazzjoni Sebħ, Ħamrun, where many mothers, friends and colleagues of hers continue to provide a service she was so fond of.

Lord, grant her eternal rest.
