Over the past few days all I have thought about it Auntie Net and how much she meant to me. From the moment I was born she was always more than just an Auntie, she was a second mum a friend and a good listener no matter what time of day it was. I spent most of my weekends with my Auntie Net and Uncle John where they would spoil me with nothing but unconditional love. I would sleep there on saturdays and me and my uncle would always wind Auntie Net up but she knew how we used to play games and he always said I was his favorite person (I’m sure he was telling the truth) Me and Auntie Net loves to go shopping where we would get the x43 into Manchester at least 3 times a month and back then it was £1 for me to go on the bus ... we would literally shop until we dropped and Uncle John used to come collect us and all the shopping bags. While we was out in Manchester we would get off at deans gate and we would always go to Pizza Hut. My mum was never a fan of shopping and still isn’t to this day where as Auntie Net no matter how she felt would always get herself to the shops no matter what. Sunday mornings she would make us all a breakfast and we would sit around her table and have tea in a cup and saucer ... I would put a good 5 sugars in so I could drink it... I would always prefer to stay at their house than stay at my friends. I would always sleep in her bed and kick Uncle John out into the next room where we would always ring the house phone to say hello and good night. One night uncle John fell asleep so me and Auntie Net decided to paint his nails and toe nails he was not impressed! His face when he woke up we would still giggle about that. I would often go round for tea Unannounced and again we would sit around the table and no matter what we was having the table was always made immaculate and always had bread and butter in the middle. She would pamper me most Saturday nights where bath time was my favorite as she always had her own talcum-powder with its own buff and she would put it all over me, I was always her little girl that she never had and my mum used to say I was in loan for her (haha) Auntie Net has a heart of gold and no matter what would be there for you in a heart beat. In a few stresses of my life (there hasn’t been that many) Auntie Net would never judge she would just be there. Many times we will have been on the phone for no less that 25 mins. Her stories I could listen to forever her singing songs that I’ve never heard and her little one liners that I will forever miss. When I had Kai she was again a rock to both me and my mum. She loved my children just like she loved her grandchildren she treated them all the same and would never leave no one out. She said the last time I saw her that Evan was a sod and she could just see how cheeky he is and how much she adore every single one of them. Mia was her madam and reminded her of her mum (my gran) she loved them all just like they love her and will miss her so much. Her Christmas Eve boxes her mother new year their birthday presents their Christmas ones Easter ... she never forgot a single thing. I will miss so many things her ringing up and not saying hello or goodbye her 1am WhatsApp messages her calls her stories her Home made food that she would ring up to see if we wanted any and brining mine and jades dinner into work. I will miss her daily calls and us sharing pictures between each other. We have all lost such an amazing lady and life is going to be hard without her. I had the privilege of being her niece. Both her and Uncle John meant so much to me. The last time I saw her she looked a million dollars as always. Came into the shop had her hair done my mum was there too we all talked like we used to and used to get into trouble my uncle mark. I then took her and my mum shopping and it was so amazing as it was just me her and my mum putting the worlds to right taking the to boots and then finally taking my Auntie Net home where I took her in got everything she wanted kissed her goodbye and told her I loved her. Yesterday was a hard day but oh a hold amazing. She had a truly lovely send off and the only person missing was her. Thank you for being the best. My love always Beth (Bethesda) xx
