Avril was a true friend, who cared about so many people and loved unconditionally. Avril, had a difficult life, with a number of tragedies and great illness, but no matter what, the tenacity of this beautiful woman, her inner strength to find security and love for her family allowed her to find a new life, successful job and many many friends.

Her later life saw her develop renal failure and for more than 5 years, she was on dialysis.

Her last days saw her fight horrendous illness to the very last. She hated to leave the many wonderful people in her life, but she asked God to take her as she really had had enough suffering.

Avril will be remembered for the wonderous love she shared with others. She will remain in the hearts of all who loved her.

Notes and messages

I love you Avril. Thankyou for caring so much for me and giving me a joy, so precious, that your pure love will remain a part of my heart forever. I am sorry you suffered, but I thank God and the Angels for finally taking you home.

It was wonderful that we both shared the presence of your Angels around you. I know you are safe in God's hands now, but the pain of losing you is unbearable. I will miss talking with you, holding your hand, having you in my life, sharing the laughter and loving you.
You were like my adopted mum and I could never forget you. I love you.
