Tributes
  1. Margaret meant more to me than words can truly express. What began as caring for her grew into a friendship that I will cherish forever. She brought so much happiness and love into my life, and I feel incredibly grateful to have known her.

    I will always treasure our conversations, our laughter, and the special bond we shared. She had a beautiful way of making people feel loved, and she touched my heart deeply. There will never be another person quite like her.

    I already miss her more than I can say, but I am so grateful for every moment I had with her. She will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will carry the memories of her with me for the rest of my life.

    Thinking of you all and sending my love and deepest condolences.

  5. Margaret was such a cherished presence at Margery Cole, and her absence is already being deeply felt by residents and staff alike. She was always warm and welcoming, with a smile on her face and time for a chat or a cheeky giggle.

    May your family find comfort in knowing how much Margaret meant not only to you, but also to all of us at Margery Cole. We are grateful for the privilege of sharing this chapter of her life and for the special place she held within our community.

    (Odie will miss visiting her most favourite resident too).
