Her Life

Our mum

May 8, 2013

Our mum was born in 1936, and had an older twin sister by only a few minutes. She also had a younger brother and sister. She was brought up in Hertfordshire then later moved to Essex, where she met my dad when she was 16. Mum married our Dad in 1957 in Essex, nine years later they had my sister Sue , followed by me 5 years later. Mum and dad moved around the uk with dads job and finally settled in Oxfordshire, where sadly they both passed away.

Mum worked for the Co-op for many years , done promotion work , then finally, running a shop in Oxfordshire until she retired.

Mum loved her garden and our garden use to look like the chelsea flower show every year. Both our parents loved working in the garden and done this right up to a couple of years before dad passed away. Mum gave up when dad died and so the gardening was left for us to do .


Mum was always there for me and my sister no matter what we had been up to, she would listen to us and guide when we needed it, this is what i know we both miss dearly
