Dear Mum and Nanny. We shall miss you. Your laughter, your wicked sense of humour, being able to chat about times gone by. The last year has been so difficult especially for you but for us all. We didn't like seeing you unhappy. We hope you are at peace now. Much love and god bless.

I’ll miss her and her laughter when telling amusing family stories of times past .

Myself and the ladies at Knit and Natter (Marie, Christine, Glynis and Linda) will always remember Barbara for her generous nature. Making us little knitted gifts for Christmas and lots of things for Charities. She was always interested in what we were making. She was such a lovely friendly person, chatting away to us all, and any new member who came along. We especially remember her for her wicked sense of humour and her always smiling and joking, and making us laugh. I personally will always remember how I was quite nervous when I first joined Knit and Natter and how she took me under her wing, looking out for me and making me feel part of the group, and I doubt I would have taught myself how to crochet if it hadn’t been for her encouragement. Thank you Barbara. We will all miss her a lot, and will always remember her.

Mum, we’ll miss you and your unique character. We know the last year was tough for you, but glad that you’re at peace now and out of pain. Much love, Mark & Sheri xx

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Barbara. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
