Christine Garratt (28 Jul 1949 - 28 Dec 2024)

We send our condolences and thoughts to Ivan and Stephen and Gemma upon the sudden departure of Chris from the physical world. Tony's fond memories of Chris include visits to 25 Rothesay Drive during the 70s and 80's - which usually resulted in very loud conversations inevitably centered around Darts or Snooker. Chris always welcomed us and never complained no matter how loud or raucous we were!!!

Lots of Love, Tony and Diane.

Ours thoughts are with you all at this sad, Chris was a lovely lady x

Our Mother. A friend to everyone she met. A selfless soul who would do anything for anyone and always put others before herself. She bought joy, humour and her beautiful smile with her everywhere she went. We were so privileged to have Christine as our Mother. Because she was so special, it makes it all the harder to lose her and to cope with the un fillable void she has left in our lives. I know she will never truly leave us as she loved us far too much. It’s so hard not to be able to see you and hug you and speak to you again Mom 💔. I am the only woman left, so rest assured I will do my best to follow in your footsteps. I’ll make sure the lads are OK ❤️. They can’t write on here as it’s too painful. Only Owen and Me have found it to be a comfort to leave messages. You saw Aunty Wen and Nan before you died and you were taken from us on Pop’s birthday which is all the proof we need that you are safe with the angels now. Night God Bless Mom, thank you for all that you have done. It’s your time now. Love you loads ❤️❤️❤️

Happy new year nan my heart aches not having you here and I wish I could have gone into this year with you, but you're happier now and that's all that matters 💞💞💞

For a Nan that was always generous 💞

Forever my Nan, she was always so selfless and kind and generous, I’ll always be grateful for her because she always had time and helped raise me. I may regret not spending enough time with her, but I’ll never ever regret loving her. You will be missed Nan and will always be in our hearts 💝💝💗💗

A beautiful lady inside and out. She will be missed so much. Xx
