SHANKS The family of the late Mollie Shanks would like to thank all relatives, friends and neighbours for their kind expressions of sympathy received following their recent sad loss. Thanks to the staff of D. Gunn, Funeral Directors for their efficient and respectful funeral arrangements and Reverend Kenneth Mac Leod for his comforting service, also the membership of Castle Street Church. Thanks to Dingwall Legion and Betty's Baps for providing both the location and the funeral tea where we were able to reflect on her long and full life. Our grateful thanks go to the doctors, nurses and associates from Ward 6A of Raigmore Hospital, Inverness and to those in both the Audiology and Ophthalmology Departments for the care and attention they provided over many years. Thanks also to Dr Fletcher and Dr Miller from the Dingwall Medical Group, and all who cared for Mollie at home, especially Linda and Elaine. The family are grateful to all those who "popped in" regularly to spend some time with Mollie and to all those who enabled her to live as independently as possible. A huge thank you to all those who most generously contributed £950 towards the local branch of Deaf Scotland.
