Miss you nan❤️🥺

Nan, I remember our summers with you and Grandad and going up ‘the forties’ to look for rabbits and damson fruit picking. Every Tuesday you took us into West Malling for the shopping, but always stopped in at the bakery which was on the corner but never got anything yourself. On the bus you chatted and laughed with your friends, especially Joan. Over the years, you’ve watched us grow up and become parents to our beautiful children, you’re great grandchildren. I only wish you were still with us to watch our children grow up, but I know you’ll always be looking down at us. I’ll continue to tell my boys of our summers and the fun we had. Thank you for being my Nan and always being there for me. Ryarsh will never be the same without you. Say hi to Grandad for me and give him a big hug and kiss. I’ll miss you and love you forever, Sleep well now Nan. ‘That Ryan, the baby (Jesse who’s now 5) and baby Casey’ love you.

I hope she live a happy life in heaven

We lived next door to this lovely lady who has sadly left this world for three years. She loved hearing my kids in the garden playing and also loved when Chris went around to see her she was lovely and kind. We wish we had known you longer. Our thoughts are now with you family at this time sending you all lots of love xxxx

I only knew you for a few years, but you made me laugh so much , with the stuff you use to come out with and done . It was an absolute pleasure looking after you and getting to know you . I’ll never forget you , OLD GIRL xxx

Mum thank you for being you and doing everything you did for me, you peacefully passed away in your sleep at Maidstone Hospital on the 2nd July. If you had reached your 90 th Birthday we were going to do a party for you but unfortunately dad was calling for you so that you could have a cuppa & a slice of cake with him, don’t forget to share the marshmallow’s, I’m sending some fruit Jelly sweets, mint imperials and extra strong mints. I miss you so much, give Dad a kiss from me and tell him I love him. Sleep well mum. Love you, RIP xxxx

I honestly have no words Nan… when I was down and I had nothing, it was you who welcomed me with open arms. I will never ever forget that. You bought so much love and laughter into our lives, that will forever continue in memory of you through me and my girls. I will do everything in my power to continue the love you gave us all and that will never be enough in comparison, I could laugh with you and even cry with you! Soph Idolised you and so did many others. You will be forever in our hearts!♥️ ( Do me a favour and leave some cake for grandad)❤️ and tell him Arsenal are going to with the title this year.🙏 Forever and always in our hearts. Fly high Nan. Love you so so much! Missing you so much! RIP Nan!❤️❤️
