Mum ,
Words can not describe what I'm feeling inside,  you were  my rock , you were always there  for me in good,  bad , happy , and sad times , we laughed and cried together, you were  always ready to listen give hugs and kisses, always there to support me.

You  gave me strength to get through anything , even now I feel your strength helping me find a way through.
I am who I am today because if you , I am the mum I am because of what you taught me
My life without you in it will never be the same again.

You touched everybody who knew you , family,  friends and many others ,you  were always there .

You kept fighting even though you were tired.
You were the final chick, now your back in the nest, I  know you are happy, back with your sibling and friends.
You will  always be in my heart , and I know you are watching over us all .
I love you so much  mum ,
Good night , god bless , sleep tight with the  angles xxx

My Mum...

You were, by far, 'the strongest woman' I know, and even now you are sleeping, you continue to give me so much strength, and for this I thank you.

You taught me how to look after myself and to be a strong, independent woman who can and will survive no matter what is thrown my way. Never to be scared. To stand and deal with things head on and to walk from the storms with my head held high.

Never will you be forgotten, or this strength overlooked or taken for granted. It keeps me balanced and has made me the best Mum I can be to Olivia.

You will be missed by many, many people.

Goodnight God Bless for now Mum, you really were 'My Ruby In a Mountain Of Rocks'

With love and emptiness.
Claire x
