Those of you who knew mum, knew that she could be a larger-than-life character, she was kind, generous and always ready to provide a hug. You will also know that she could be determined. But that determination meant that she achieved things in her life above and beyond for her family. She faced many difficulties in life and faced them with incredible strength, compassion and determination. She treated everyone with respect and kindness. She was the most compassionate, understanding and family orientated person. My lasting memories of my mum are simple, she was a hardworking, compassionate figure of strength who never waned in her support or love for her family and anyone who needed help. She will be greatly missed by those who loved her.
