In loving memory of Gillian Clifford who sadly passed away on 13th January 2025.

Our lovely mum spent her life smiling and helping others. She spent many years lovingly looking after her husband, David, who had dementia. Mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer's shortly after his death but continued to smile, tell funny stories and enjoy time with friends and family. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.

A little snippet of Gillian's effect on our grandchildren when we visited our mum. She always waved and smiled at them. Such lovely memories of her ♥️

With deepest sympathy for your loss. It was a privilege to have lived next door to Gillian & David from 1991. I could not have hoped for more kind, friendly and considerate neighbours. Gillian would always want to pass the time of day with a chat or positive remark and sharing about the family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. A life well-lived.

In memory of such a lovely lady, who our family got to know through her obvious love for children, when our young granddaughters visited my mum Joy. Such a joyful soul who is greatly missed xx

This lady loved life and she loved to laugh. She loved to smile, be cheeky and giggled easily even on tough days. Memories were always full of David, Trish and Paul and the only thing she loved more than putting me through my paces were her kids and her extended family. Never known a woman so completely and utterly cheery right through to the core and you couldn't help but love her independent streak and sparkly eyes whilst she told you an irrefutable no right after telling you well I'll say yes if you say so. Very much missed and so glad we got to know each other. It was my absolute privilege to share time with you and your beautiful family xx

I've met very few people who smile as much as dear Gillian. From the day we met to the day we parted she was always cheery even when times were hard. Loving, cheeky and sharp as a tack this beautiful lady is loved and missed xx
