Lisa and I first met approximately 16 years ago through our children. We established that we had a lot in common including our hatred of toddler groups and having grown up near each other near London we had a lot to discuss, now both living in Bourne. She said it like it was and had an infectious laugh and a zest for life. Before she was taken ill I commented how great she looked, through hard work she had lost loads of weight and was so proud. I have seen her a few times since she has been ill, occasionally the laugh was still there, but not as loud! My love and thoughts go out to Karim, Omar and Bibi and all the other members of her family. Taken too early and will be missed greatly.
