My Dearest Wonderful Mum
The most enormously kind, caring, thoughtful, loving and devoted Mother. A solid rock for my life. You cared for and did so much for so many of your family and other people with kindness, love and gentleness. You have been such a hard worker from start to end of day, throughout your life. Nearly 3 years since your stroke, you fought so hard.
So many people have remarked so often that you are the “Loveliest and Kindest Lady”. Always immaculately dressed. You maintained your dignity & grace to the end.
A lifelong strength in Faith, Family & Friends. A great love of your garden, flowers, floral art and flower arranging.
Reunited with your dearest Roy, devoted loving husband of 49 yrs, your beloved Mum, Hilda & Dad, Harry & brother Noel. Anchored in the Lord all throughout your life. Now tending Heaven's Garden.
I will love you forever.
Your Devoted, Loving son
Robin Bell.
