On 27th July 2026 suddenly in hospital, Ros, aged 69 years of Clayton-le-Moors. The dealrly loved mum of Joanne, Jay, Michaela and Sean, loving nana to Faya-Rose, Kaide and Kaison, also a loved sister of Pam, Malcolm and the late Les, a dear sister in law, auntie and very dear to Sean.
Ros had a variety of jobs in her life from dog warden to shop assistant, working in a chippy and behind the bar at The Forts Arms. But it was as a dog warden that she was at her happiest. Ros adored animals especially her beloved horses. Killarney always held a special place in her heart and she loved to cheer Michaela on when competing on Ziggy and Killarney’s foal, Sambuca. Ros loved people and socialising. She was a familiar face in Clayton, enjoying her time visiting the pubs. At home, she was a great cook and her mince and dumplings, meat and potato pie and spaghetti Bolognese were legendary in the family. She had a great sense of humour and was always upbeat. At home she enjoyed watching the soaps and could often be found watching a Christmas movie at any time of the year – she liked nothing better than a good soppy Christmas romance film. And I mustn’t forget her love of Tequila!
Ros will be remembered for many things and will be deeply missed by all her loving family.
