Larger Than Life

It's not fair it's not right,
All year caring for others,
Full of life and laughter,
A laugh that was so contagious,
We all had to laugh with you,
She loved a LARGE mug of tea,
She said things as she saw them 
A fighter not someone to give in,
Illness didnt win with you,
A front liner you where a carer,
When you became ill we new you would fight,
But into hospital you went,
You did fight for so long,
Seeming to turn a corner,
But covid beat you in the end,
Your a woman to be remembered,
She wouldnt want tears,
Celebrate her life laughter is what she would want,
Elaine the stars will shine brighter but it will be darker here.
You will be remembered by everyone your life touched xx
