With immeasurable sadness we must announce the loss of Cherie Churchill.

An adored mother, wife, sister, aunt and friend, who passed away on the evening of Thursday 1st October with her family holding her hands and queen playing in the background. Exactly as she would have wanted.

An absolute formidable force of nature, whose very existence provided colour to any gray day and the embodiment of sunshine. Always putting her family before herself and making sure everyone knew who proud she was of her daughter, husband and the rest of her family.

It was her wish as to not hold a funeral, but please hug your loved ones and always ‘I love you’ every day as we did.

It is with great Sadness that we announce the passing of Lisa Ward

Lisa was a laugh, stoic and smart. A book-worm with a love for words and wool, she liked time to be with herself and her hobbies. Everyone keeps referring to her as a rock, because she was always there to lend an ear without needing anyone to return the favour. It was always “don’t worry about me, I’m fine”. It’s unimaginable to think she took her own life at 53, and that she was struggling with a silent addiction. She leaves a space in the hearts of her family that can never be filled and will forever wish that she had had a chance to speak out about her internal battle.

Above all, Lisa was a selfless woman full of love for her family and friends.

Funeral service to take place at Grantham Crematorium on Friday 11th September at 1:30pm, family flowers only please, donations in memory of Lisa are being collected for the work of Gambling with Lives and can be given on the day or via the link. Family have requested no black to be worn, maybe an item of green. All enquiries via Price & Son Family Funeral Directors, 70 Castlegate, Grantham, NG31 6SH, 01476 593556
