Angela Mary Dove
A devoted wife, loving mum, treasured Nanny, and a beautiful soul who brought warmth and colour to every life she touched.
Come and celebrate her with us
Mum couldn't bear anything dark or gloomy. She loved sunshine, bright colours, flowers and roses, but above all, she lived for her family.
We're gathering not to mourn her, but to celebrate the wonderful life she shared with all of us. Bring your favourite memories, your loudest laughter, and please, please leave the black at home.
Wear bright colours
Mum's wish was that everyone come dressed in colour. Think summer, think roses, think sunshine, and think of the warmth she brought to every room. The brighter, the better.

A beautiful life, full of love
Born on the 1st of November 1948, Angela was a woman whose warmth filled every room she entered. Family was at the centre of her world, and the love she gave so freely is what we will carry with us always.
Gardening, flowers and especially roses were things she truly loved. Their colour, softness and beauty have inspired this celebration because they reflect so much of how we remember her: warm, graceful, full of love, and always bringing brightness to those around her.
Her family were her everything.

She left a little sunshine wherever she went,
a kind word, a smile, a moment well spent.
Bring colour and laughter, bring stories to share,
for love such as hers is still everywhere.
