Sad news,
Heather Nightingale (Galehill Prefix) passad away quietly toady at 4pm.she had been fighting cancer for many months and died in a hospice with husband Chris by her side.
Heather was president elect for the DCS and was determined to carry out the roll.
On a personal note i would like to thank both Chris and Heather for the start they gave us with dexters, some of our foundation cows were purchased from the Galehill herd, and one of our memories will be the huge smile and thumbs up we got from Heather in her wheelchair when we were in the showring at the Royal show 2004 when Galehill Shortcake won her cow in milk class.
Our thoughts are with Chris and the kids.

Funeral information will follow.

Very sorry to hear this news. I never met Heather but knew of her great determination to fight on and thought she had been given a clean bill of health a bit ago.... How devastating for the family.
Please send our regards and prayers.
