Daren W Posted 13 September, 2010 Share Posted 13 September, 2010 It is with the very greatest sadness that must advise you all that my mum passed away peacefully in her sleep on Sunday after battling bone cancer for the best part of 3 years. No pain, no suffering she just quietly passed away in the home she loved so much... A season ticket holder for 15 years until cancer robbed her of her ability to make it to games, her last game was the Ajax pre-season match from last year. A fair few people on here knew her and everyone who met her at St Marys will attest to her love of Saints. During the last few days of her life she drifted in and out of consciousness, one of the last things she said to me was how I rated Nigel Adkins. I told her he'd be the man to take us up. She smiled. She passed away in her sleep two days later... I will miss her fun and laughter more than I can possibly describe. Goodnight mum and god bless...

Micky Posted 13 September, 2010 Share Posted 13 September, 2010 Lost my mum to Cancer many years ago Darren and it hurts to this day - it will never stop hurting. But when times are bad I still turn to and talk to her, she may not be able to speak back, but I know what she would say, even now she gives me the strength to get through the bad times. The pain may not go away, but neither will the great memories that you have of her. Sincere condolences to you Darren. RIP Valerie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
