Betty Currell

My mum was a very special lady. She loved her family so much. She and my dad had been married for 64 years when she was cruelly taken from us far too soon by Covid-19. My mum and dad met whilst on a bike ride with their best mates. They were going to our local seaside which was about twenty miles away. They stopped off for a “lemonade” on the way home and that’s where the two couples met. My mum’s best friend and my dad’s best mate went on to marry as well! Once they both retired, they enjoyed a Caribbean Cruise and made many memories together until, sadly, my mum was diagnosed with dementia and she had poor mobility. But still, my dad, even though he was in his late 80’s, took her in her wheelchair, on the bus, into town twice a week, where they would have lunch and do some shopping. He misses her so much.
