Anita was a wonderful person who will be so missed by her husband David, her sons Jonathan and Chris, grandson Alfie, sister Marcia, brothers Tony and Martin, nephews and nieces, all other family and her many, many friends. She was such a kind, selfless, caring and compassionate lady with a happy face that touched everyone she met. Anita worked at the Children’s Hospital for nearly 30 years before retiring in 2016 and is fondly remembered by her ex colleagues. She enjoyed living her life and has given her family and friends many treasured memories. She still had so much to look forward to but was diagnosed with cancer in 2022. Anita managed her illness with great strength and dignity and was determined not to let it get her down. She was initially cared for at home and received tremendous support from family, friends, NHS and St Luke’s and spent her last days as an inpatient in St Luke’s, where she passed peacefully on 22 March. She will be forever in our thoughts.

Anita was such a lovely lady. She was so kind caring and friendly. We treasure our memories of the times that we shared with her as members of the Wednesday Wayfarers. Our thoughts are with David and family. Love Glenys and Jim
Anita was always bubbley! She made me laugh from the first time I met her. While out litter picking in her fabulous pink high vis vest I went over to introduce myself. There was also another lovely lady whom name escapes me. Anita helped out on Fox Hill Litter pickers a few times. I was so honoured to have met such a genuine human that made us all smile...and will be sadly missed by all. Until we meet again...God Bless.xxxxx

I first knew Anita when she was 11 years old and have many memories to treasure of happy times. Anita, you were a very special lady, kind, caring and fun, and always thinking of and looking after others - family and friends. Reading your wonderful tributes, you have been an inspiration to many and you will be truly missed beyond measure. Although I didn't see as much of you in recent years, we remained good friends and I knew you were always there. It was a privilege to have known you, and an honour to have been your sister-in-law. You will never be forgotten. Sending much love to David, Jon and Chris X

My heartfelt condolences to Anita's family and friends. It was a privilege to work with and learn from Anita. She had a huge positive influence at the Children's Hospital. The Lady with the Kind Heart. Words cannot do justice.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
