Oh Janet, how our lives have been left with a little less sparkle now that you have left us. I will always be grateful for how you have treated me as one of your own, no questions asked. I have so many fond memories with you. We are left with such sadness and heavy hearts without you, but are so grateful that we got to spend so many special times together. What a privilige it was to be able to call you Nan. A wonderful Great Grandma you were to both Daisy & Lennon. Somethings may never be the same but the memories will last forever. Thank you for everything! We loved you then, we love you still x
R.I.P, Janet. Xx. Our hearts break that you have left this earth, but you will fly high with the Angels now. We have sooo many fond memories of you, we shared lots of laughter, and a few tears too. You were warm and welcoming and protective of everyone in your circle. You we're caring and funny, your sense of humour was 2nd to none :) we are proud to have known you and hope Eddie and all the family will take some comfort knowing all the love from all the people's lives you touched in such a selfless way will surround you forever. Your memory will live on as will your love, Goodnight Janet, God Bless xxxx
For 59 years you have been in my life. Teaching me right from wrong. Loving us all unconditionally. I have so many memories like the big Christmas dinners on Christmas Day all, sat round the table and clearing away and getting ready for the next lot, inviting all the extended family round to have tea. Bonfire night party. Getting up at the crack of dawn to go out to clean the offices. Trying to teach me to drive. Oh God that was so funny Down at that office next to the Canal, how we didn’t end up in there, I don’t know. I could go on so many memories Mum, you were always there for whatever we needed and you are going to missed so much We knew little that day. God was going to call your name in lifeWe loved you dearly in death We do the same it broke her hearts to lose you, But you didn’t go alone for part of us went with you the day God called you Home You left us peaceful memories Your love is still guid And though we cannot see you, You are always at our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again. Good night, God bless mum rest in peace love and miss you
Janet good night god bless love from Bentley family xx
My mum, my rock, the glue that kept the family together, now that you’ve gone you have left a massive void and a big hole to fill! Your not suffering anymore and you are now at peace after your long battle to live on for the sake of your family and your husband of 54 years, which I will make sure he is ok as he learns to live without you. You were a precious mother, grandmother and great grandmother, and was loved very much, our hearts break without you and we will celebrate your life and always keep your memories alive as you gave so much to your family, Thank you mum xxxx
Nan, no words can describe how amazing you were, to everyone that crossed your path. With the gift of years comes the treasure of knowing that there are many who love you dearly! The memories you’ve made with me and others will last forever. The tenderness you’ve shared with us will never fade. The most wonderful gift you could ever give is the special part of you that now lives in each of us especially me! And the truth your love has taught us can only be strengthened by the gift of time.. for where roots grow deep , memories grow forever.. Love always .. R Haley. Xx🌺💔🩷
She always made the most beautiful food, I compare everyone's cooking to hers, and no one will ever beat it. She taught me to finger knit, and attempted, on many an occasion, to teach me to knit even though I wasn't very good at it. An absolute legend of a Nan, seriously missed 💔
Joan I didn’t know Janet as well as everyone i’m not from Cleckheaton, we’d meet at family gatherings no difficulty chatting…she came across to me as a special person who turn her hand to anything for which I admired her very much I’m going to miss our catch up chinwags love to all her family and friends
I have a lot of great memories of Janet especially our Boxing Day memories the best one of those was sitting with Sandra at the buffet table apparently not hungry but having a taste of everything between the two of them that was on the table..😁 Love em 🩷🩷 Janet will be sadly missed by many people as she was a wonderful lady.xxx
Janet was my lovely customer for many years. I had the pleasure of looking after her feet and we shared lots of lovely conversations. She knitted clothes for me when I had babies, she shared recipes and tips for just getting through family life in general. She was one of the most kind and caring women I have ever had the pleasure to meet. A wonderful woman who has left a fabulous legacy with her lovely family who she talked about all the time and loved so much. Rest in peace Janet 😇
R Janet always looked after me and treated me as one of her own. I couldn't have wished for a better mother in law and am proud to have her as mine. Shall will be dearly missed by us all. R.I.P Janet 💔
Memories of such a loving and compassionate lady. Full of knowledge with the most warm and welcoming smile. She would always make you feel welcome in any setting. Loved visiting her at the seaside which was a lovely escape for Janet and Eddie. You will be truly missed Janet, the love and devotion for your family was very clear to see. ❤️
R Janet Not only did I do her hair she was also my lovely friend for years. And I was honored to do her hair for the very last time for her final journey next week. She will be sadly missed. RIP Janet❤ xxxx
