ValerieKELLYWith profound sadness, I announce the passing of my precious mother, Valerie, fondly known as Val, who was a loving daughter to dear parents, the late Ivy and Hugh (Kelly) Hart.

Peacefully at Alice House Hospice on January 31st, 2023, dear Valerie bravely faced an unexpected diagnosis and short illness at age 77 years.

Devoted mother and best friend of Angela (Anjie), beloved sister of Derek, sincere sister-in-law of Judith, and admired auntie of Rachael and Victoria. Val’s genuine friendship has endeared her to many.

Service and cremation to take place in the Chapel of St Hilda, Teesside Crematorium, on Wednesday, February 15th, at 1:15 pm.

No flowers by request, donations in lieu, if so desired to Cancer Research UK are welcome.

"Forever 77, Forever Loved, Forever Missed."

Life has shifted profoundly, and the past we valued can never be relived; accepting this reality is deeply challenging. Yet, your exquisite memory remains in our hearts, providing continuous inspiration and solace.

We are grateful for the brightness you brought into our lives, your generosity and kindness, and your sociable nature that brought people together, as well as your wisdom and principles.

It’s heartwarming to remember those later years when you gave your time to voluntary work for charitable causes, reaching out to help others less fortunate.

This legacy truly makes us proud and is cherished by all of your family and friends; it is indeed a blessing.

♥♡♥♡🌹♡♥♡♥

REST IN PERFECT PEACE

............................ ✝ ............................
All our love from your daughter Anjie, brother Derek, sister-in-law Judith, and nieces Rachael and Victoria, and dear friends. ♥♡♥♡🌹♡♥♡♥

I will always hold gratitude for the Christmas we were granted together in December 2022, just before your health began to decline in the New Year of 2023, a time that brings forth deeply painful memories.

It leads me to fondly remember my beloved mother, who now watches over us from above.


I recall the remarkable courage you displayed at home and on the admission to the hospice in the last week of January 2023, nearly three years ago; that is imprinted in my memory and will endure until I leave this life.

At this time, and indeed, every January, your loyal daughter, family, and friends remember the unbearable challenges you faced.

We light candles in acknowledgement and are truly with you.

♡♡♡🕯♡🕯♡♡♡
