This is my tribute to her as someone I will never forget who although I never realised before has always been there.
My best memory of her is being given a tartan dress when I was about 10 from her on new years eve and arriving of at her new years party that year to be allowed to join in adult convosation for the first time. I was so happy at the time. Fi-mummy threw brilliant new years parties every year and they will be one of the things that people took for granted and will now realise how special they were.
Fi-mummy lived near my grandparents and my other main memories of her are at their house whenever i visited. She would turn up at some point during our visit usually with aunty heather and would ask me and my sisters all about school and our lives. She was always part of our family celebrations.
All I really want to say with all this is how much she meant to me and how much I will miss her. Aunty freda was a kind, considerate person who knew how to make children feel welcome and happy. My life will be different without her.
