A message from her son Martin: Please come to the funeral service, and if possible, also the cremation, to help me celebrate mum’s wonderful life.. I’m preparing some materials to illustrate mum’s life, best read before the service begins so you might want to come a few minutes early. You are also invited to the wake at Number 9 restaurant in Lumley Avenue after the service. Instead of flowers, donations please to be made to Barnardo’s Childrens’ Charity. They are dear to Jean’s heart. She raised over £10,000 for them. There will be a collecting box in the church, and the Funeral Director, Skegness and District Funeral Service has a number to call for card donations:.
