It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected death of my sweet Mum who passed away peacefully on Sunday 15th January with Dad, Adam and I by her side.

We know this will be a shock to many who knew Mum and were unaware of her cancer. It was her choice, in her words, “not to worry anyone”.

Mum was sadly admitted to hospital on the 19th December to be told the cancer she had battled to clear in 2016, had returned and its status was non-curable. Mum’s bravery, strength and courage in hospital over the last four weeks were unbelievable and something that I will carry with me as inspiration for the rest of my life.

Mum’s only sorrow was that she did not have the strength for visitors. A huge thank-you to all of my Mum’s family and friends who have sent their love and support over the past few weeks. It brought so much joy and spirit to Mum to hear everyone’s messages.

My Dad, brother and I would also like to thank the doctors, nurses, and staff of Lowan ward at Treliske Hospital for the amazing care they provided for my mother and a personal thank-you to the team at the Macmillan Cove Centre for the daily support they provided for Adam, Dad and myself.

We have set up this page as it was Mum’s firm wish that rather than flowers, she would prefer we make donations to the Marazion Cancer Shop, a charity organisation very close to Mum’s heart, in order to make a difference in the lives of others tackling this awful disease. Mum worked as a volunteer at this charity shop for many years, only stopping to concentrate on her treatment and she felt passionately about both the cause and the people who dedicate their time to support it.

It would be our pleasure if anyone who would like to, would join us at her funeral to celebrate the life of the wonderful lady that was Wendy Koller.

Much Love,
Nicola, Adam and Graham. Xxx
