The obituary notice of Amanda (Mandy) HAWKES (nee Smith)

My beautiful mum.
There’s a void in my heart.
My world has turned grey.
In any lifetime, I’d pick you again.
I love you.
💔

Mandy

For the endless sumner holidays,
For the times in the sand heaps, the go-carts, the dens
For the drunken BBQs, birthdays parties & for every New Years Eve we’ve spent together
For nights at the Akbar
For proving we didn’t have six toes!
For the Flower Shows with Joanie & Mazza and for all the plants we couldn’t fit into the car (or garden)
For moon gazing hares concrete badgers….broken feet:ankles
For wedding flowers, For trusting me with your wedding cake
For always being there: divorce, burglaries, bereavements; turmoil & travesties
For skinny cars, purple tights,Bus shelter roofs
Moon Tree, Green Acres, haymaking Beech Grove Hallowe’ens; black bin bags & turnips, singed hair
dancing in the kitchens, in gardens, on tables, on car bonnets
For Stix
Heartbroken but so very privileged. Forever part of the family.

Things will never be the same again goodbye you gorgeous friend x
