This is a memorial to my late mom Joan Marie Stanley nee Barlow.
She sadly died after a painful illness cancer aged 56 in Compton Hospice wolverhampton
She married William (Bill) Stanley and had one daughter Lesley(me).
She was the eldest one of 8 children to Alfred and Emma Barlow.
She grew up in Whitchurch Shropshire.
Joan loved travelling, on her own just as much with her husband Bill. Cornwall being her favourite place in england.
When she was younger she belong to a cycling club, with my dad bill they travelled some miles in later life she took up motorcycling riding a moped (more of a motorbike than a moped) going up to whitchurch to see her family and using to go to work on, She also loved fishing, she took her rod on holidays with her even to spain.
She was a loving caring person, who would put other first rather than herself. Her last job she helped the elderly shoping, cleaning doing errands etc, often she would work over and visit them outside of work hours, she was that type of person. ONE IN A MILLION (not just because she was my mum)
She has 6 grand children who sadly she has never seen
Elizabeth (lizzy), Emma, Daniel. Stephanie, Jennifer and Thomas
and three great grandsons matthew, terrance-john (tj), charlie
What more can i say but she was a GREAT PERSON and the BEST MOM IN THE WORLD!
SHE IS SADLY MISSED BY ALL!
I'll always need my mum no matter what age I am...... My Mum has made me laugh... wiped my tears... hugged me tight... watched me succeed... saw me fall... cheered me on... kept me going strong... and drove me a little crazy at times!! But my Mum is a promise from God that I will have a friend forever!

les xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
each night we shed a silent tear,
as we speak to you in prayer,
to let you know we love,
and just how much we care,
take our falling teardrops,
wrap them up in love,
then ask the wind to carry them,
to you in heaven above
if roses grow in heaven
if roses grow in heaven,
lord please pick a bunch for me,
place them in my mother's arms,
and tell her they're from me,
tell her i love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek,
and hold her or a while,
because remembering her is easy,
i do it everyday,
but there's an ache within my heart,
that will never go away
