Mum, no words can express the sadness of losing you x We are completely heartbroken that you have gone. You were loving and caring to all of us, a wonderful Wife, Mum & Nana too. When Allison and I needed you most, you never left our side. Such a vibrant elegant lady, we are SO PROUD to call you 'OUR MUM'. You had a humble start in life, yet many happy times were shared with your brothers and sisters and our beloved 'Nana Hall'. We loved listening to all the stories of your childhood memories, swinging on that garden gate at 13 Ellerton Road. The sharing of shoes and the bath water too, the unusual bed warming ritual your eldest sister made you and Auntie Iris do. When you all got together it was as if you had never been apart! We have been looking through our photos and although your beautiful smile has brought many tears to our eyes, others have brought lots of laughter. How lucky we have been to have shared so many wonderful years together and special celebrations with you. Life will never be the same without you x Over the years you made incredible memories with family and friends, especially 'The Crowd', we all had such fun times together, you shared a special bond with them all. Not forgetting those family & friends who have sadly departed, we pray you are with them now - God Bless them all. You loved to have nice things in life, but was never too extravagant. Although Dad might disagree ? We won't forget our shopping trips where we would usually end up spending hours and hours in your beloved Marks & Spencers, where you worked for many years and made a lifelong friend. Determined to keep fit and healthy, you managed to stay looking so young, for so long. Many have remembered you as such a beautiful glamours woman, and they're not wrong! Our line Dancing Queen until the end, whenever there was music playing there was always a wiggle and a smile! Even when you couldn't remember all the steps you continued to persevere. Sadly Parkinson's started to take over in the last 7 years of your life - but you held on tight to your dignity, so brave and so strong. At times you kept us on our toes with those scary tumbles and your infamous tuck and rolls. You had such amazing strength right up until the end. Even though we can not hold your beautiful hands or hug you tight anymore you will FOREVER be in our hearts x We miss you so much already. Sleep Tight Mum and God Bless xx
