My best friend Jen was 57 when she was killed in a senseless unnecessary car crash. She died at the scene with her with massive injuries (thankfully he recovered) was her beloved husband John, It was their wedding anniversary, 1st April 2005. They were on their way home to Melbourn near Royston Cambs/Herts. They had had a great dayout and were nearly home when they were hit by a van travelling in the opposite by a guy who had been using a mobile phone. The van flipped on a bend and went out of control and landed on top of Jen and Johns car. Thankfully Jen did not know anything, but she was gone.
Jen and I spent out teenage years as best friends. She lived a few doors away from me and I used to see her most days. We used to go to youth club together in the sixties. John was her boyfriend way back then and he used to see us both home. Jen and I would belt out the latest hits and walk along arm in arm with John to the beat. Jens parents Majorie and Les Plummer were like my family along with Jens sisters, Glen,Val,Denise and Dianne. I was always included on outings down to the coast and have so many good memories I could write a book.
When John and Jen got married and had Gary, their first child I would get on my bike and bike five miles to see them. Jens memory burns within me, It has been three years today and I have never found the strength to say goodbye. Even the day of the funeral I turned back and went home because I had this weired feeling that maybe just maybe my dear Jen had not left this world. I miss her so very much, even though in recent years due to family commitments (on both sides) we did not see much of each other. I love Jen like a sister and now I have written this eulogy I can finally go the cemetry in Melbourn and say my goodbyes. Would just just like to say Jen and John had three great kids Gary Adrian and Tracey, and her beloved grandchildren. Jen my bestest mate, love and miss you, till we meet again, goodnight and god bless. Joan xxxx
My Aunty Jen
Aunty Jen -
I miss you so much, some days are still just difficult and I look at your picture and have to pinch myself to believe that you really have gone. Although gone, I believe you are still with us and guiding us through life's little troubles.
Keep with us, we love you! xxxxx
Darling Jen, tomorrow is your wedding anniversary and the anniversary of your passing. Jen, my lovely Jen, think of you often. I always say WHY. It was so unfair that you were taken from your family and friends. You and your family, siblings, and your mum and dad God Bless them always made me feel wanted. Love you for ever Jen - Joan xxxxxxx
My dear Jen, summer has gone and now we have to look forward to Christmas. I still think of you on special occasions. The 2nd to last time I saw you was my birthday in 2004, we bumped into each other in Homebase. I, for some reason was in such a rush. How I wish I had stayed longer. The last time I saw you was Christmas time, we were both with 'our respective Johns' We chatted and laughed outside next. Getting ready for Christmas it seems so long ago Jen but I can see your smiling face right now as if you were here with us still. Love you Jen God Bless. Joan xxx
Your 60th Birthday
Today we should be having a great time celebrating your 60th Jen. Where have the years gone it only seems like a couple of years ago that we were spending our spare time having fun. Thank you for those times, if only we could turn the clock back a little. Also remembering your dear mum and dad (Marjorie - or Little Doll as I used to call her and Les) I can still see him walking down the road with a paint kettle in his hand, and your lovely mum always ready with the Woodbines when I had run out of cigs. Remember the vase of flowers on the back window sill, still laugh about that. I will raise a glass for you tonight Jen. Luv ya always Joan xxxx
Dearest Jen, this weekend (Saturday after Cambridge Fair) think the year was 1965, was the last time I came to Sea Paling. Oh what a great time we had. Remember your dads old van with the seats in the back that wern't bolted down! Every time we took a corner the seats would fall and we would all roar, Jen I can see your face like it was yesterday. When we were nearly there we would all chant S..E..A... P..A..L..I..N..G. Remember running down the beach like idiots, me ripping my favorite very tight skirt from hem to zip. Me calling your dear dad Cods Head, dont know where that came from, but he would just laugh and push me in the sand. Oh Jen thank you for the good memories, you and your family taught me what families were all about. I saw Denise in Tesco today, she doesnt change, told her about your memorial on this site. Thanks Jen for being my friend. My teenage years were so much better for knowing you and you family. God Bless you Jen - and goodnight xxxx Joan
