As per mum’s final wishes cremation has taken place and a celebration of life will take place at a later date.

Gwendoline Dunnicliff - September 19, 2021

Sending love and condolences to my family in Canada. I was very sad to hear of the passing of my Auntie Irene. I have so many happy memories of holidays in Killearn. The Easter egg hunts in the back garden. The Oor Willie or Broons annual every Christmas when me Greig and Alison were children. Picking pounds of brambles for my treasured mum Traudi to make bramble jelly. May you rest in peace Auntie Irene after a life well lived. Never more than a thought away, loved and remembered every day. Gwen and Jerry, Melton Mowbray UK.

Ryan, Lyndsay,Isla & Cooper - September 18, 2021

Granma, I never thought I’d have to be writing this. I thought you were going to live forever. I always spoke so highly of you, how granmas garden was always perfect, how you had the work ethic and strength of a 20 year old. The trip to Trenton was one I always loved and had the opportunity to bring Lyndsay to Granmas house. You’re with Granpa again :) and I know he’ll be taking you to a dance both dressed to impress. Watching over your family I hope we make you proud. You’ll be remembered forever and Lyndsay and I look forward to sharing many memories with Isla of her Great Granma Beck. Love you Always. Your favourite Grandson ;) Lyndsay, Isla and Cooper
