Ann- Louise ROSSETTI

It is with profound sadness that we announce Ann-Louise’s sudden passing. Ann-Louise was a devoted and wonderful mum to Angelica and Daisy, who were the heart of her world, a treasured sister to Amanda, Jason and Chrissy, and a loving daughter to her late mother, Sue James. Her family, especially her children, were her absolute pride and joy, and she poured so much love, care, and devotion into their lives. She treasured every moment with her girls, and was always there to encourage, support, and celebrate them. The love between Ann-Louise and her girls was truly special.

A kind-hearted soul in the truest sense of the word, Ann-Louise was not only devoted to her family but was a loyal and supportive friend to many. She loved her work as a Teaching Assistant at Chester Bluecoat School. The staff and children at the school were very fond of Ann-Louise, and will miss her warm and bubbly presence in the classroom.

Ann-Louise will be fondly remembered by all – family, friends, colleagues and students alike – for her glamour, her generous heart, her distinctive laugh, her devotion to those she loved, and above all – the immeasurable love she shared with her daughters. She will be deeply missed, forever loved, and always remembered.

The funeral service for Ann-Louise will take place at Blacon Cemetery’s Crematorium Chapel, on October 21st at 12.40pm, followed by a committal in the adjacent burial ground. You are warmly invited to join the family at Telford’s Warehouse following the service, to celebrate Ann-Louise’s life over some light refreshments.

The family are happy for flowers to be sent, but would prefer instead that donations are made to the Together Trust in Ann-Louise’s memory: togethertrust.enthuse.com/pf/ann-louiserossetti

He leaves behind Kate, his family and the many friends he made throughout his life, who will remember his dry humour, individuality and wonderfully eclectic way of looking at life. “It’s all part of life’s rich tapestry.” With love, Jane and Chris Funeral service at Landican Crematorium, Centre Chapel on Monday 12th October at 1.00pm.
