Your bro xx

Where to begin.

For 19 years I had the privilege and honour to get to know and love you. I am so proud that you are my mother-in-law, though to be honest, more like a mum.

You were always there for me, even when I didn't feel I could talk to anyone else, you gave me that time, a ear to bend & at times, a shoulder to cry on. I'm forever grateful for the times I spent with you, be it a BBQ, Christmas or just sitting having a coffee and a natter (usually about the rubbish we'd read on the Daily Mail!). One thing never changed and that was we'd end up on washing up duties, but I cherished those times, you'd always ask how my family was or how my job was going, forever the selfless listener.

The love, care and devotion you gave to Jack & Charlie had no end. You have given them 2 boys the most precious, amazing memories that they will hold with them forever. I know you will guide them through life, no matter what it brings.

As a mum to your wonderful children, you did the same. Kate & Maf talk about their memories with the most amazing happiness. They, as your grandchildren, always came first and you were faultless.

As for Rod, he couldn't have asked for a better wife. A lucky man, who would test your patience at times but together you made a home full of love and warmth.

We will learn to live without hearing your voice & laughter, it will never be the same, but you will always be with us. We will have endless conversations of the memories, the good times and I promise you one thing... I will make sure they are OK.

Finally, thank you. Thank you for being the person you are, thank you for the love, thank you for everything. I'm going to miss you so, so much and I love you.

So very sorry for your loss
Thinking of you all

To Our wonderful Nan.
There truly are no amount of words that can do the fantastic life you've had justice. You've always put our family and us first and above everything.

If the love that you had from everyone and the love gave us determined our lifespans you'd have lived forever and so would we.

We'll remember the jokes, laughter the wonderful food, the beautiful trips together. But above all else we'll cherish the hugs and kisses telling us "it's alright I love you regardless" even when things may not have been alright.

We'll carry those memories and the love with us. You've taught us that love will always be enough and with it you can bring many other things, hope, joy, excitement and one day that legacy of love will be passed forward through us.

If everyone could follow your example the world would be a fantastic place (the way you made it for us).

We'll love you forever and a day, to the moon and back and always will.

All our love. Your boys.

Jack and Charlie ****

Mum, so many cherished times together. Our lovely holidays to Ladrum Bay when Kate and I were young, days out at Stolford on the beach cooking freshly caught mackerel, having sack races in old potato sacks. Easter time eating fish and chips with our Nans. Christmas Eves at our house with all the family and Boxing Days at Auntie Mols too, for some reason those Port and Lemons always gave you a headache!! The smell of all your wonderful home cooked food. Love and laughter filled the air and your smile lit up every room. The sound of The Carpenters or Rick Astley and how he was 'Never gonna give you up' and Whitney Houston wanting to 'Dance with somebody' would play out from the old stereo. In later years we spent so much time together out in the garden, just happy in each others company, Mum and Son. You leave behind so many wonderful memories for us all Mum and I know that one day we will all be together again and we will make many more.
Thank you for everything you are and all that you will forever mean to me, my beautiful mum.
Miss you. Love you forever and always Matthew ****

My beautiful precious Mum, you were my first friend and my best friend. The most perfect mother that any daughter and son could ever have wished for. Your kind and loving heart mixed with your cheeky and at times wicked sense of humour, made you one in a billion and I am so very lucky and extremely proud to have you as my mum. You dedicated your life to your family, nothing meant more to you than all of us but your grandsons, Jack and Charlie, were your absolute world and to them you were their world too and simply the most perfect Nanna that two boys could ever have. You made so many friends along lifes journey Mum but you done so with ease, you were a joy to be around, a people person who could find common ground with anyone about anything. 'Life is for Living' you would always say, we will do you proud and you will live on in our hearts forever. So thank you mum for enough love to last us all a million years. I will miss you forever more but I promise to take care of all the boys, until we can all be together again.
I love you with all my heart my little darling always and ever now and forever. All my love little doll. Kate XXXXX
