Jackie Melvin age 82, passed away peacefully February 14th 2019 after a long illness, she will be sadly missed by her loving family.

She was born October 6th 1936 in Southend. She married her longtime friend and love, Terry Melvin on 4th October 1958 preceded her in death in 1984

Jackie loved to love people.

Jackie was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She loved her role as little Nan too. She had a quite loving personality and always made people around her laugh and smile. She made friends whereever she went and they became life long friends.

Jackie whom her family affectionately called ...... Jac, Little Nan, Nanny Melvs, Mrs M and Fruitbat amongst others will be remembered for her wonderful sense of humour along with her dedication to her family.

She liked to sew and complete cross stitching. She was highly skilled with knitting needles and enjoyed knitting cat blankets for the local vets. Her hands were rarely still.

She also enjoyed going to one of her favourite restaurants Tomassi's for the special ice creams.

She cooked the greatest cakes and kept an immaculate house and home.

Jackie loved " Google " and thought it was a wonderful invention. Asking Google some crazy questions like " Why is an orange , orange ? ..... Who is the green eyed monster ? Where do short people buy dressing gowns ? ....

Her sense of humour shone through even through her illness.

She adored and loved all the family's pets....and cooked sausages especially for them!

You never heard Jac raise her voice , but .. ' The look" would stop you in your tracks !

She will be sorely missed by her loving family and friends.
