ValerieKELLYIn loving memory of Valerie, our "Queen of Hearts."
Her strength, courage and firm faith in the face of an unexpected diagnosis and short illness, inspired us all.

Dear Valerie, fondly known as Val, continues to impact all who knew her well. Val's beautiful soul and kind spirit made her an Angel on Earth and now in Heaven. Happy and sociable; strong as steel.

Valerie's life had meaning as a loving daughter, devoted mother, beloved sister, sincere sister-in-law, admired auntie, and faithful friend.

Later in life, over many years, Val continued caring for others, including charitable work for the Alzheimer's Society, After Adoption and Society for the Blind. Val engaged well with people from all walks of life.

The bond with beloved daughter Anjie, formed over many years, was unbreakable. They lived in the moment and held on together through challenges.

Family and friends cherish Valerie's memory and miss her deeply. We remember her steadfast dedication, wisdom, and gentle guidance with gratitude.

Valerie's memory lives on, and her wishes to give thanks as intended to loved ones and friends are complete as follows: To her beloved brother, Derek, sister-in-law Judith and nieces, Rachael & Victoria for their kindness and caring over the years. To EVERY FRIEND for their lovely company and laughter, in person and over the phone. With special thanks to Elaine, Norma & Sue.

We respectfully remember Valerie's dear parents, the late Ivy & Hugh (Kelly) Hart, and our loved ones passed. All are honoured and greatly missed. Rest in perfect and constant peace.

I carry this angelic keepsake from Mum in my handbag, which she gave me in 2005. It's one of many from her, along with beautiful cards and letters she wrote me throughout the years, and all these treasures provide such comfort. ♛ ✝ ⚓︎

................ 🌼❁ † ❁🌼 ...............

My beloved mother embarked on a profound journey of personal growth, predominately in her later years, and I felt an overwhelming sense of pride as I witnessed her become the best version of herself.

She was remarkable to begin with, but it was as if she blossomed into the most beautiful version not only from within but also outwardly in her appearance.

In those later years, she was fortunate to uncover and appreciate the true meaning of life, ultimately finding a sense of peace and contentment—something that many struggle to understand or achieve.

It’s through our experiences, happy and sad; our growth; and the way we treat others—with respect—that we truly evolve.

............ ❁❁❁❁ ⚓︎ ❁❁❁❁ ..........

In the end, Valerie achieved all of this, and it's to be celebrated, as we did in life and now in death. You are loved. ♡

Gratitude for reminding me to 'see the flowers', a guiding light for my growth within. We both realised that life entails 'pockets of happiness'. [You were and will always be a blessing, dear Mum!] †🙏
