The obituary notice of Barbara Anne KING (Prior)

Nannie, I don’t even know where to begin to tell you what you meant to me, how much I love you and how much my heart is broken that you’re gone. But what I have to say is what an absolute honour and privilege it has been my whole life to be your granddaughter! And that’s an honour that I will still carry with me for the rest of my life! Any time I struggle I will think of you, what you taught me, the strength you gave me and fix my crown and remember who’s granddaughter I am!
Every day I will cherish your memory, your love your guidance and the way I am literally you all over again. The similarities we’ve shared and often laughed about together over the years! If I can become even half of the mother, Nannie, wife, daughter, friend and woman you were then my purpose in life will be beyond unmeasurable and the blessing I will bless my family and friends with is unthinkable!
I will never forget for as long as I live the impact you had on every single person you ever met. Even those that met you for just a moment could see how wonderful you were as that kindness just poured out of you without you even realising. I will never forget The way you made everyone who knew you feel, loved, supported and cherished as we all loved and cherished you in return!
It’s hard to comprehend that the world isn’t going to be the same without you in it but at the same time it’s a better place because you were here. What an inspiration to leave on others. It’s hard knowing we have to do life without you now, but your influence will be incredible enough to last us all a lifetime. Always to be cherished and proud of. Never to be forgotten.
Thank you for everything you ever did and everything you were.
All my love for always and eternity.
God Bless
Love Little Dena xxxx

My wonderful mum
I don’t know where to begin to say how much I will always love and miss you and be thankful to you for all the advice you gave and all that you have done.
I will forever miss you not being there for us.
You made me so proud to be called your son.
growing up, you taught us all how to be kind, loving and respectful to each other of which I’m sure we will always continue to carry forever in your honour.
You made me so happy seeing you happy and proud knowing what you and Dad have achieved bringing us all up the way you did.
you were the most loving, selfless, welcoming and considerate person anyone could ever wish to meet. You meant so much and will continue to do so to so many people and it breaks my heart on each and every thought of you no longer being here for us and this world no longer being blessed with your presence. I still have and will always cherish and hold deep inside my heart the last kiss you ever blew for me x💔
until we meet again mum
miss you forever
God bless you.
your loving son
Derel ♥️xxx♥️

Barbara ( mum)
40 years ago I became part of your lovely family, and little did I know how much you would teach me and guide me in life and how special you would become to me.
From being a young girl you taught me so much in life not just how to cook 😊 but how to do so many things that I learnt from you which I still carry with me today. I will always be grateful for that and grateful that our paths crossed.
It’s not just the big memories I’ll treasure it’s the little things to the chats, the laughs and all the advice you gave me.
You were so much more than just a mother-in-law to me you were like a mum.
Sleep peacefully now u till we meet again lots of love Mandy 💔❤️
Oh and I will keep the promise you made me make to look after Derel for you ❤️❤️xx

Forever in my thoughts, forever in my heart, I'll always miss you while we're apart, I love you more than I can express or say. Xxx ❤️
