Mum - Mama B, or Crazy Mama (after the JJ Cale song she loved) - was truly one of a kind. She was brilliant, creative, fiercely independent, incredibly intelligent, and had a wicked sense of humour that could light up any room. No matter what life threw at her - and life threw plenty - she just got on with it. No complaints, no drama - she’d roll up her sleeves and sort it out. Her strength was remarkable. She showed us how to face life head-on, how to stay steady when things got tough, and how to always find a way through. Mum wasn’t just our mum - she was everything to us. The one who cheered us on when we needed encouragement, told us the truth when we needed grounding, and taught us how to find laughter, even in the hardest times. She was the centre of our world, and her love held us together in every way. Even in her final weeks, she was still Mum - full of humour, full of love, and full of that quiet, steady strength that kept us all going. We stayed by her side, holding her close, just as she’d done for us so many times before. She slipped away peacefully, as beautiful as ever.We miss her every day, but her love and the lessons she taught us stay with us forever. She’s in our laughter, in our courage, and in the way we keep moving forward. Here’s to you, Crazy Mama. Goodnight, God bless, sleep tight, and sweet dreams. Xxx
