Hello
Our deeply loved cat recently passed away & I am buying a small wooden urn for her ashes. Attached to the urn will be a small engraved plaque bearing an inscription which will read:
Marmite
1998-2011
We will always love you, little Angel
I would be grateful if you could advise whether the last line is correct. In particular, the comma & whether "little Angel" should have any capitals. In life we did not refer to our Marmite as an angel, but we believe & hope that she is one now.
With thanks
