Well, It Happened

Crazy Lady
Just a very short newsletter as this has been a tough week for me. On Tuesday morning we had the news that Mum had died.

Many of you know that my Mum was a troubled soul who used alcohol and prescription drugs to try to quieten her demons, but she was also an incredibly intelligent woman who brought love, laughter and light to all the people she came into contact with on a daily basis. We are learning more each day of the love people had for her and how they looked forward to seeing her and hearing her cheerful voice. "Morning! Spring is nearly here" if it was sunny or "£*%! Its effing cold!" - Mum swore like a trooper to anybody and everybody. She certainly didn't have any airs and graces and although eloquent in her speech she swore like a very posh navvy. 

She was loved by us all with her crazy ways, her cackling laugh and bawdy, seaside postcard sense of humour. Quick witted with a tongue as sharp as the sharpest knife she has left a huge hole in Sheffield 10 and in all of our hearts. 

She was Mum to us four and Gabby to her extended family, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Gabby by name, Gabby by nature - she could talk the hind legs off a donkey.

We all hope she can now find some peace in her soul whilst taking her best qualities to party on in style with friends and family already passed. 

Stay being lovely, see you in the week and I thank you in advance for your understanding if I am not quite myself over the next few weeks.
