Having done a Launch a Memory donation in memory of my Mum, I received a small magazine from the RNLI peeps which said you could purchase a memento of the occasion. Although they mentioned mugs and I'd kind of hoped for maybe a lifeboat model or something, I opted for a 12x12 cushion with the number on it where her name is emblazoned with probably thousands of other memory names to mark the occasion. Granted given that the cushion is a faux suede the writing is kinda hard to read but it's a good keepsake. Her lifeboat is off to Invergordon, if it's not already there now, Covid-19 kind of got in the way - AGAIN. So it's good to know that a little part of her and lots of other people's loved ones will be forever remembered on such an important craft.
