This site is a tribute to Cecily, more usually known as Pat, who was born in Bromley, Kent on August 30, 1937.
Beloved wife, sister, mother of two daughters, grandmother to six, and foster mother for 52 babies and toddlers under two years of age, she is much loved and will always be remembered.
It was always a dream of Cecily's (Pat) to help children in need which was finally realised when she was 60. Instead of retiring, she became a foster parent with Chas and they spent the following 19 years caring for and nurturing babies, with the majority starting their lives with the couple from birth until their first 18 months of life.
The NSPCC Childrens Charity believes that "every child is worth fighting for" and has been chosen in dedication of Pat.
Thank you Pat, together with Chas, you gave Harry and 51 other babies so much love and kindness just when they needed it. Love to Chas and all the family xx
Love and thoughts with all the family at this sad time.
With fond memories of Pat. Our relationship began as work colleagues but continued as friends. I will remember Pat as a very kind, generous and loving person to all she came in contact with, and the amazing work she carried out with Chas in caring for children. May she rest in peace.
