Maureen Clifford, (Wright)
D.O.B 31st Jan 1941
D.O.D 6th July 2000 (aged 59)
A Dear Mother To me who I CARED for during and well before her illness,

Maureen was Married twice and lived in the Lancaster and Morecambe area, when Maureen passed away at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary Ward 2 on the 6th July 2000 she was living with me her Son Wayne on Westgate in Morecambe, I was her carer for over 4 years and nursed her though her illness which she suffered a great deal with and sadness after her marriage break up.

I am the only child to Maureen and Robert Clinton.
She had other children to her previous partners.
She was also Nana to her many grand kids, a Dear Sister, Auntie and Dear Friend to many.

A Morecambe girl from Graham St she worked at The Kings arms in Morecambe in the late 50s and then on to Bare Laundry in the 60s and 70s and also worked in Liverpool travel there from Lancaster daily.

Maureen was always willing to help others before her self, but sometimes some people including her other children took advantage of her generosity and kindness, but she would soon tell them and she never took no prisoners some of her children never really bothered with her and she never saw them before she died and that was quite sad after all she had done for them and some only saw her when they wanted something in return, but its them who have to live with that for the rest of there lives.

Her funeral took place on the 11th and 12th July at the Holy Family Catholic Church Westgate Morecambe and the service was done by Father Keefe, followed by burial at Hale Carr Cemetery Heysham.

MY MUM from WAYNE your Son.
To my mother I cared for you for over 4 years and I don't have any regrets and not a day goes by where I don't think of you and miss you dearly, you was taken too young at 59 and at your best after finally getting over the break up of your marriage and also a messy divorce, and you was so happy and after passing your driving test which you never thought you would but you did and you loved driving and at 54 who can blame you. but you always said only the good die young and that is why you was taken from us,
The last 12 months of your life where hard for me and also for you because we both knew you was not well and not long for this world but we both carried on as normal and never told anyone, I can still see your face the final time you was admitted to hospital and you didn't want to go in because you knew it was time to leave us and I think about it a lot and it upsets me a great deal, but then I think of all the good times we had and the laughs we had.
They say time is a great healer but I don't think it is, you just continue with life and cope has best as you can, you never forget .. And I never forget you and your in my mind 24 7 and I talk about you regular and keep your spirit alive.
I feel sometimes when I am ill, sad or down your around me and keeping an watchful eye on me, but you will see that I have a great partner now and he looks after me..
God Bless You Mum and Miss you lots.
Love your loving son and his partner..
