My boys loved you so much, and still to this day they say ‘BARBARA’ when we go up to see uncle mole or if we’re out and see someone who has short, perfectly permed hair like yours 💛💛

Our beautiful Aunt Barbara, you will be missed more than words can ever say.

You weren’t just an aunt—you were like a nan to Steven, Kieron, and Chris, and they loved you so much. The memories we made, especially our Sunday bootfairs with you and Mum, will stay with me forever.

You had such a kind and unique soul, always taking the time to speak to everyone—even those we’d lost when visiting the crematorium. That was just who you were… full of love, always.

Sleep peacefully, Barbara. You will always be in our hearts 🤍

You were more than just an aunt — you were love, warmth, and laughter all in one. As my nan’s sister, the bond you shared was so special, and I’ll always smile thinking about all the holidays you went on together and the memories you made side by side.

You had a nickname for everyone — calling us “cock” in your own loving way — and that was just you… full of character, humour, and affection. It’s those little things that made you so unforgettable.

Thank you for all the love, the laughs, and the moments we’ll hold onto forever. You touched so many lives, and you’ll always have a place in our hearts.

Rest peacefully, Aunt Barbra. You will always be loved, always remembered, and never forgotten 🤍
