In training sessions, Bryony inspired my daughter to keep on trying and develop her basketball skills…Phoebs is not the most confident player and Bryony had a knack of knowing just how to keep her going. There were many giggles along the way… and a good deal of Haribo shared if I remember rightly!
The photograph above has a very special memory for me and I have shared this story many times with many people because it touched me deeply…
On the night of the 5k Club run, which Bryony and her Mum spent so much time in putting together, Phoebe was the last to come in. The rain was torrential. Kath was running with Phoebe and, with many words of encouragement and the inspired use of Jelly babies for extra energy, kept her going despite her being absolutely exhausted.
The final straight to finish line was a long track. Despite the dreadful weather and having finished the run many minutes before, Bryony and some of the team were at the line waiting for Phoebe and Kath to come back. As they came in to sight, the girls headed back up the track to support their team mate… which they did all the way with Bryony at her shoulder encouraging her to keep going. For the first time that night, I was truly thankful for the rain as it hid my ‘weepy moment’!
We all miss you Bryony. Our deepest sympathies go to Kath, Rob, James and family
