In loving memory of Auntie Val.

Our Dad always used to joke that she’d eat little boys if we misbehaved — and we believed him! Still didn’t stop us exploring and moving her ornaments! I’ll always remember the great parties at her house growing up, happy memories.

All our love

Mark, Jo, Lewis and Rory X

In loving memory of Auntie Val, fondly remembered for being strict, a no nonsense approach, yet supportive and family focussed. Her camera never too far away. I particularly remember the Budweiser bottle cake you made for my 18th Birthday… it was amazing. Sending all my love and I’m sorry I we can’t be there at your funeral. Simon, Lou, Josh, Freya

Dear Kevin and Marion, Danny and Christine - I loved sharing time with Val - her good humour and laughter are part of her legacy. She was a lady devoted to her husband and family - and sharing time with you all gave her the greatest of pleasure. Well done to you for making sure she enjoyed a life well lived right until the end. You're in my thoughts and prayers - June x
