Mum, where do I start? How do i put into words what a strong, beautiful, kind, loving, inspiring person you were. Loved by everyone. Mum was the life of every party always the first on the dance floor. Mum was beautiful inside and out. Always a go to for so many people, always there to listen and advise, the biggest wall to bounce thoughts off. Mum was the binding to so many books in so many ways. Mum was a people person, at her happiest with family and friends around her. Always the light of the conversation. Mum loved nature and inspired us to do the same, from hedgehogs, to wrens and blue tits, she loved and cared for them all. Mum was so brave and strong. She fought for life so hard for so long and always with the words ' I'm fine' and a smile. She protected everyone from the truth in the hardest of times. Mum I can't tell you how much I miss you. I would give anything to have one more morning conversation or just one more beautiful smile. I miss you so much. Mum your life was a blessing, Your memory is treasure, I love you beyond words, I miss you beyond measure, I thank you for everything, You are always, always on my mind, And forever in my heart. Love you mum. Barry xxx

My beautiful mum - the only way to describe you, beautiful inside and out. You were taken from us far too soon and I just wish we had more time. I miss you - I miss your smile, I miss our phone calls and messages just talking about the little day to day things that meant so much to you, I have so much to tell you already, I miss you just being there. I know it is said a lot but you truly lit up a room just by being in it - that sparkle of yours and just your presence was enough to make the people around you happy. You have left such a massive hole inside that will never be filled but, I will try to live by your example - with a smile no matter what struggles are thrown my way and with kindness to others and the world around me - you will be there in the trees and creatures you loved so much, when I see them I will think of you. You have been through so much the last couple of years but, whenever we would ask how you were, the answer was always the same 'I'm fine' you would say so as not to worry us. You are the bravest, strongest person I know and I am so lucky you were my mum. I love you so much. Rest in peace now mum. Nicola xxx

Mum, you were so many things to so many people. You touched so many people in your lifetime. Always thinking of others before yourself even in the hardest of times. I have never met a lady more kind, generous, and brave. You always came through adversity with a smile. When feeling so unwell and being asked how you were feeling? You always said “I am OK” with a smile. In the past week as I have spoken to so many people that were fortunate enough to have known you, and I have come to understand more than I ever appreciated, just how much you did for people, and how much you were loved. I miss you more than words can ever say, but I will forever cherish the time we spent together. I thank you for teaching me right from wrong, for standing by me unconditionally, and most of all for the love you gave me. “Susan Mary Robinson I am so proud to say that you are my MUM!” Love Always, Ian xxx
