Passed away at the General Hospital on Monday, 25 April, 2016, after a courageous battle. You fought hard and laughed harder. Mum, you were one in a million, my soulmate and my rock. You always cared and thought about everyone else before yourself. Everyone who met you loved you instantly. Your life was your family, loved unconditionally. Mum, for all those times you stood by me, all the truth that you made me see, for all the joy you brought to my life, and all the wrong that you made right. Every dream you made come true, and all the love I found in you. You’re the one who held me up and never let me fall, you’re the one who saw me through it all. I love and miss you Mum, ‘Simply the Best’.
