Goodbye for now my dearest Carole.

You carried the fire, you were a colourful light in the lives of all who knew you. You weren’t very tall but you were a tower of strength. You were a beacon who inspired us and showed the way and a rock who kept us from sinking.

A plucky adventurer and an endurance ace, you were the epitome of elegance and style. Beautiful, generous, loving, thoughtful and kind. You were funny and mischievous too and a wonderful Godmother to Francesca.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Dom, Matteo and your family.

We are so lucky to have been close to you and are grateful for the times we had. We will cherish the memories and carry you in our hearts forever.

Until we dance on the tables again, keep shining my beautiful and beloved friend. You are brighter than ever now.

– With all our love, Titia, Francesca and Dominic XXX.

A wonderful nephew, funny, friendly and caring to so many, will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Taken from us far too soon.

Our thoughts are with the rest of the family who gave their continued support through this sad time, and especially to his partner Sara who was continually by his side.

– Love Richard and Tye XX.

No words can explain the heartbreak that I feel right now.

You are finally at peace.

– Your loving Mum Julie XXX.

In memory of my dear grandson Wayne.

You will be in my thoughts daily.

Rest in peace.

– Love Nan XXX.

To say goodbye to such a wonderful girl is such heartbreak, but a joy to have known her is to have won the lottery.

We cannot imagine the pain that Dom and Matteo must be suffering, but knowing what Carole meant to all her friends, colleagues and acquaintances will, we hope, will make them feel so proud of all Carole accomplished in her relatively short life.

Swing on those stars sweetheart and don’t forget the Dom Perignon.
