Claire was the light of our lives. She was funny, lively, outgoing and the person everyone loved to be with. Claire could light up a darkened room just by being in it!
Claire loved sport. She was fit and would have a go at anything. Often found as a child climbing a tree or playing football or rugby! She had a massive passion for Saints Rugby team and also her "blue boys" Everton.
She was amazingly strong and brave when she was diagnosed with cancer in 2004. Despite being pregnant at the time, Claire decided that she was going to fight with pride and dignity and be brave. She instructed us all that we must do the same... including her young son.
In March 2005, Claire had to deliver her baby daughter at 29 weeks because of the cancer. Despite being ill and undergoing treatment, Claire would keep a vigil at her baby daughter's cot in the Special Care Unit and amazingly would be encouraging all the other Mums of premature babies on the unit to think positive.
Claire loved being a Mum to her two adorable children and was so excited about becomming an Auntie for the first time... sadly she didn't get the chance to see her nephew born.
Despite her bravery and determination, Claire became very poorly and died peacefully in hospital on 15th October 2005 leaving her heartbroken family and friends.
Claire was a doting Mum to her 2 children, much loved Daughter, Sister, Grandaughter, Niece, Cousin and Friend to many many people.
Claire is missed so much by so many people. She is resting now with her Grandad, Auntie Irene and cousin Andy.
Goodnight God Bless Claire. We will never forget you or stop loving you. Forever and Always.
Remembering Our Daughter - by Mariane Holbrook
We'll only remember the good things
Like the day when our baby was born.
How she filled all our lives with such pleasure,
Never knowing that now we would mourn.
We'll only remember the good days,
Like the day when she ran to our arms
And she flashed her big smile so endearing
And displayed her unique baby charms.
We'll only remember the good things
Like the presents she wrapped with her love
And presented her heart to her parents
Like a gift straight from heaven above.
We'll only remember the fun times
When our family would gather as one,
And our laughter would fill all our household
At the antics of her, our dear girl.
So today though we mourn at her passing
And we wipe sorrow's tears from our eyes,
We'll remember this Daughter whom God gave us
And brought so much joy to our lives.

Claire, its been 4 years tomorrow since you left us all here without you!! not a day goes by I dont think about you and wish I could call you for a natter or a moan!!
I am an Auntie now, yeah little Christopher had a baby girl but I suppose you know all this dont you, looking down on us and making sure were ok like you do.
I cant put in to words how much I miss you Claire you are my best friend and will always have a place in my heart, your beautiful children are a credit to you granted I dont see them but thanks to your Gill I get a glimpse of pictures now and then......you cant deny them not even if you wanted to!!!!! And so to you my lovely, brave, best friend I raise a glass of Taboo (oh the shame) and wish you were here so much.........always in my thoughts and my heart forever x x x x x x Andrea
Claire, it's been 3 years now and we still to this day talk about the memories that you left us, which we are so greatful for. We will never ever forget you, and neither will Sam and Jessica. It's been a long time, and it still hurts to this day, but we realise that your not alone. You have Grandad, Irene and Andy at the side of you, are you are there to make them laugh, which i know you will be doing. Not a day goes by that we do not all think about you all.
I'll never forget you, and i have many great memories of you that will be with me forever. One stands out though, Cardiff 2004. You know the story, going all the way to Cardiff on 2 ice cream vans, didn't think we would ever get there. You were trying to get a few songs going on the bangers going down, it wasn't the best journey of my life ill tell you that, and i'm sure you will agree. Never the less, we won and it was something i'll never forget and i'm glad you are part of that memory.
Make sure you all look out for each other up there, your with Grandad, Andy and Irene now, so make sure you all have ball.
Love,
Billy.

KEEP MY MEMORY
Keep my memory with you,
For memories never die.
I will be there with you,
When you look across the sky.
I will be there in the clouds,
In the birds that fill the air.
In the beauty of a fragrant rose,
You will find my memory there.
You will feel me in the tenderness,
Of a tiny baby's touch.
You will hear me if you listen,
In the twilight's gentle hush.
When your hearts are heavy,
And you feel that you are alone.
Just reach down deep inside of you,
For your heart is now my home.
I will always be with you,
I will never go away.
For I will live on in your hearts,
Forever and a day
