In Memoriam

NELSON, Jennifer Elizabeth (1st Anniversary)
Died 6th September 2025.
God saw her getting weary
and cure was not to be,
He put His arms round her
and whispered come to me.

Sadly missed by
her mother-in-law Lavina.

In Memoriam

NELSON, Jennifer Elizabeth (1st Anniversary)
Died 6th September 2025.
God called your name so softly
that only you could hear,
No-one heard the footsteps
of the angels drawing near,
The golden gates had opened,
God saw you needed rest.
Gods garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.

Very much loved and missed
By her husband James and Mum Mary.
