My story

Angela Pearl Owens was born in Kirk Merrington, Spennymoor, Co Durham on July 6th,1969. A dearly loved partner to Derek, precious daughter of Kevin and Gina, devoted sister to Kevin and Linda and special granddaughter, niece and aunty. She is much loved and will always be remembered by her devoted partner Derek and all her family and friends.

Sadly, she was taken from us on 15th December 2011, just one year after being diagnosed with breast cancer. She never gave up her fight to live and her courage and determination to beat this cruel disease, and also to continue to thnk of others is to be commended. But her cancer was was very painful and aggressive.  Thankfully, she had her dearly loved partner, Derek by her side 24/7 to look after her and then Hartlepool and District Hospice also stepped in with their caring staff to make Angela as comfortable and pain free as possible during her final weeks. We are extremely grateful for their love and support while Angela was in their care. Hartlepool Hospice feel passionate about caring for individuals and their families affected by life limiting illnesses and the death of loved ones and they offer a diverse range of specialist palliative care and breavement support services. But without public support and fundraising they would not be able to continue vital care when and where needed.

We would like to thank them for all the help and support they have given us during our difficult time.

We are so lucky to have shared our lives with Angela. She was an inspiration to all who knew her.
