Me (Anne) ....and my Mum's teddy!

Anne & Teddy

Yes, as the title says...this is/was actually Mum's teddy!
She grew up with it in India and then brought it over with her when she married Dad. Over the years it became quite bald and lost it's eyes! I remember going to Birkenhead market with Mum to the 'toy hospital' there where she bought 2 new plastic eyes on wire for him!
When Mum passed away it was only right that her childhood Teddy should go with her....my daughter, Katey made a replica in flowers which was beautiful. The funeral Directors even asked if we were sure that Teddy should go to as he was so old!
Katey has a photo of the 'Teddy flowers' which I will find and put up later.
