In loving memory of Mai Garton (nee Sheila May Nason) who sadly passed away on 20th May 2025 after battling Acute Myeloid Leukaemia. She had a sometimes hard but wonderful life, travelling around the world visiting places she'd always dreamt of whilst indulging in her passion for good food and wine. Over the years she had many businesses but mainly bought, renovated and sold property. She loved her family greatly and spent most of her time with her daughter Lynne, son-in-law Chris and her Grandchildren Edward, Charlie & Alana.

She leaves a gaping hole in our hearts and will be truly missed.

xx

Sheila will be missed at all our family gatherings. She brought a bit of glamour, and sometimes a bit of fire too. Either way, Sheila was always unapologetically Sheila.
I am proud to have the privilege of seeing her live on in those she loved the dearest: Lynne, Alana, Charlie and Edward xx
