In remembrance of a special lady. Who’s zest for life despite its challenges was heart warming and a smile to light up a room too. Rest in peace. Jan x
This photograph taken about 1965/66 is a treasured memory ( I am the small child in the middle) Sue was my cousin and I have lots of early memories of many many family holidays mainly to Llandudno and Colwyn Bay . With many trips up the “Great Orme”and lots of ice cream and cups of tea ! She was a great friend to my sister Christine who also sadly died too soon.
much love is sent to all the family

We first met Sue about 21 years ago when Jeni and Paul moved in next door to us. That first Christmas she joined us with the family for a Christmas sherry or two! After that it was the occasional barbecue and the children’s christenings. So although we didn’t know her well, we always remember her lovely smile and being good company.
We also know that she must have been a very good mum because of the legacy she has left in Jeni who is beautiful inside and out.
We express our deepest sympathy to the whole family on the loss of Sue who we know will be greatly missed.
With love, Ken and Sue x
Christmas 2021 with Mum.
Worth sitting in the cold and rain to see Mum in her very trendy ‘Oodie’ keeping her toasty warm while we had our COVID restrained Merry Christmas ????

With a cappuccino as big as her head! Just the way she liked it ☺️
I’m very sad to announce that just before Christmas my mother Sue Capewell passed away suddenly and unexpectedly, though briefly and peacefully.
Her death comes at the end of having spent almost her entire adult life living with and fighting against Multiple Sclerosis, an illness that came to dominate her life, but not before achieving so much, and touching the lives of so many.
She trained as a nurse, and began her career at the prestigious Bart’s hospital in the City of London. Having later brought my sister and then me safely into the world, she returned to work in one of the noblest positions as a palliative care nurse, bringing aid and comfort to the bedside of those suffering terminal illness in the final days and hours of their lives. In her professional and private life she always put the well-being and happiness of others first.
We are still coming to terms with her sudden loss, and it feels impossible to contemplate that she is no longer here.
It brings immense comfort to know that, although her MS made more and more of an impact on her life as the years went on, more recently she had been receiving the levels of care she needed, and that she never lost her spark or sense of humour. Everyone we’ve heard from so far has commented that she always had something funny to say.
I am immensely proud of her – of her stoicism, of how she dedicated her life to caring for others, and to be able to say that so much of who I am today is thanks to her.
It will take a long time to come to terms with her loss, but I am taking great comfort in knowing she did not suffer at the end, and reminiscing with all the beautiful images and memories I have of her. I will have those forever.

Shocked and saddened to let you know that Mum passed away suddenly, and unexpectedly yesterday afternoon.
I’m so sorry to anyone we haven’t managed to contact personally yet. I hope you’ll understand that this was such a complete shock, and we’ve been trying so hard to think of everyone we can ???? Mum was a friend to so many, so I know we will have missed some ????
We’re taking strength in the knowledge that she was fully healthy, and happy until this point, and, as a nurse, she knew fully well how MS would have further ravaged her body and mind, and that she has been freed of her shackles at last.
Good night, and God bless Mum.
Rest in eternal peace now.
Give Grandmama a hug for me ????????????
