Though your smile has gone forever and your hand we cannot touch, we all hold many happy memories of you.

God bless xx.

Rest in peace.

Love Daphne, Jack, Rosie, Tracie, Larry, Sam and all their families.

A wife, a mother, a grandmother too,

This is the legacy we have from you.

You taught us love and how to fight,

You gave us strength, you gave us might.

A stronger person would be hard to find,

And in your heart, you were always kind.

You fought for us all in one way or another,

Not just a wife, not just a mother.

For all of us you gave your best,

Now the time has come for you to rest.

So go in peace, you’ve earned your sleep,

Your love in our hearts, we’ll eternally keep.

We all love and miss you so much already.

From Rob, Kellie, Loz, Ash, Olly and Dan xx.

Gone from us that smiling face,

The cheerful pleasant ways,

The heart that won so many friends,

In bygone, happy days.

A life made beautiful by kindly deeds,

A helping hand for others’ needs.

To a beautiful life,

Comes a happy end,

She died as she lived,

Everyone’s friend.

We will treasure our memories till we meet again.

Love from Jane, Jay, Chloe, Charley, Jamie, Alfie and Adam xxx.

Mum, Pat, Nanny Pat.

My Mum, my friend, our Nanny and our Matriarch.

We will miss you but we will never forget you.

Sleep tight angel, we all love you.
