Mam you was one of the most amazing people I have ever known, even though I told you how much you meant to me, and how loved and cherished you were, it's only now, it's sinking it I will never see you again, and that is so hard to bare. You lived your life selflessly, and spent your life caring for others, never putting yourself before others. often going out of your way to reach those who were in need. You always believe in me and you inspire me more than you probably realised, you were so loved by john who loves you like his own mum, You were everything a grandmother should be and more to Sophie Alexander and Hamish they all all broken-hearted too, but time they say will heal hearts and we will be able to speak without tears.
You lead by example you were a great mother to me, and great wife to dad, I will always live my life loving John how I've seen you love dad, you truly inspired me how you could turn your hand to anything, weather that be running your own business, or artexting the whole house, you always took things on with a can do self belief, when I think of all you did, you were amazing, we as your children went without nothing, we needed, felt loved and privileged but not spoilt. You were firm and always fair. We had an amazing childhood, lots of friends and great family time, which you lived for.
I knew I could come to you no matter what the reason or circumstance, you'd always be there for any of us,
I love you with all my heart and will truly miss you.
There are lots of things people say when loved ones die, about where they go, it's my belief that you are just beyond the horizon with all those loved ones who's gone before you, and waiting for us. Until we meet again I love you forever and always xxxx??????????????????????????????
