Tributes
Leave a tributeTo my beautiful Aunt. There are no words to express the hurt of your loss, and the thought of all your loved ones in pain, breaks my heart.
You were an amazing woman, full of life and love. I often spoke about you with Shan. That always made me smile. I thank you for that.
Thank you for always being there for me. Always making sure I was ok. Always making sure I knew what was happening and always empathetic to my needs.
I will miss you dearly and I’m so thankful for all that we shared.
All my love.
