Flowers on the water ceremony.

Paddlers for Life held a flowers on the water ceremony in memory of Jeanette who was one of the first cancer survivors to take up dragon boat paddling in this country.

Members who paddled in Liverpool with Pool of Life recalled Jeanette with fondness. She loved paddling and always wished to paddle on Windermere.

Members of her family joined us for the ceremony.

On a calm Windermere, after the sunshine cleared the mist, paddlers also remembered other loved family members and friends whose lives have been cut short by cancer.
