Alma STOTT

Hi Mum, it is with great sadness that I write this letter to you.
You were an inspiration to me, you taught me so many practical things when I was young. Although I'm not keen on painting, Your hand painting was fabulous, flower pictures on French post boxes, they were really good, and would brighten up anyone's doorway. I miss you very much, and have happy memories of our time together when I was growing up.
I Love you very much Mum, now and always,
Lots of love Ant. Xxxxx

Alma, mon amie, ma chère amie... Si vite partie et pourtant là encore, et pour toujours dans mon cœur. Merci pour ton amitié. J'ai eu tellement de chance de croiser ta route.

Alma, my friend, my dear friend... Gone so soon et yet still here, and for ever in my heart. Thank you for your friendship. I was so lucky to cross paths with you.

Intelligent, practical, artistic and full of joy. We will always remember Alma with a smile for the good times and the great pleasure of her company.
Alma was a font of knowledge and sensible thinking. She had the resourcefulness, a thirst for knowledge and an interest in others that made her the interesting and compassionate lady that she was.
She loved the Creuse and took great pride in her house and garden, welcoming us always with a smile and the offer of a nice cup of tea (or beer if Bill was near).
We will miss her laugh, news of her latest project, and her bonhomie.

Rest well Alma. You have a lot to smile about as you look down.

We were so very saddened to hear that alma has passed away. I met Alma and Bill through my parents, Christine and Ray lavall. They moved to France to a village called issoudun letrieix and spent twelve happy years there, when I visited my parents, we would go for the fish and chips and a drink and then pop by for a coffee and a chat. She was always welcoming, a warm humorous very kind woman and I will remember her fondly. Rest in Paradise Alma. 💕Sending all our love to you bill x Mikhaila

We met Alma and Bill soon after moving to France 12 years ago. Alma was always very welcoming and would go out of her way to help. We enjoyed our fish and chip nights and also popping round for a coffee. She was a lovely lady and we will miss her.

Je suis attristée par le départ d’Alma.
Mes sincères condoléances à Bill et sa famille.
Bon courage dans cette épreuve.

We've only had the privilege of knowing this lovely lady for 2 years
We met her at a campsite in Spain
We were having a BBQ and Alma and her lovely husband Bill were pitched opposite us
We invited them over to join us
Instantly I warmed to her
We really hit it off
She really liked my egg mayonnaise and potato salad
We kept in touch and the following year we met up again
And our friendship grew for the four of us
Alma was kind and so funny
I loved her company as did others
She lived her best life
She will be so missed
We loved you Alma ❤️❤️❤️

I am greatly saddened to hear the news of Alma's passing

While I met her later on life, I counted her and Bill as very close friends and it was always a great pleasure to spend time with them both.

I particularly enjoyed cooking Sunday roast for them both and leaving Bill to drink all the beer while me and Alma got stuck into the wine over what was always a delightful afternoon.

She will be sorely missed.
