I am so sorry to hear of Margaret's passing , she was so young at heart, always managing to make me smile and laugh with her yarns and stories. 2 words come to mind when I think of her “bloody lovely “ .
My thoughts are with you Hughes family.

Rest in peace Ma. You have earned your angel wings, I will miss you, but I'm glad we got to spend the last 4 1/2 years together. I started my life with you as your first child and you came back to me for the end of yours, thank you for trusting me to keep you safe. I love you ❤️ and You were right, you were Cairo's ratbag nana. :) xx

Mum, I wasn’t able to be with you although I tried. If I had half your patience, the devotion, the acceptance of anyone or any situation without judgment, I would be a better man. We were lucky to have all the years with you, before we took you home to Tam. We lost you twice which was very sad to all. Mum, you are now free and able to start your new journey. Love forever. x

To Margaret my mother-in-law friend & drinking buddy.
I have known you for 20years when Greg introduced me to You & Lloyd.
I was welcomed with open arms as my children Ashlee & Kane .

You were always happy positive and accepting, and saw the good in everyone .
There were many great stories but sometimes the truth got in the way.!
The love for animals was amazing, as you would say, they never let you down and are always happy to see you.
Life was not easy for you, but you took it in your stride.
Thank you for bringing Greg into the world as he is now my world, he has your funny sense of humour, so I will always remember & love you.
Will miss you be free now Marg xxxxxx
Luv Maureen
