Story

Hello

My brave auntie, Christine Hall has battled cancer on and off for almost 20 years. Well, on Friday, 20th January 2012, she decided enough was enough. She went to sleep surrounded by her family who love her dearly.

She leaves behind husband, John, son and daughter Jason and Kelly (son Andrew, deceased), and their respective partners Marie and Tony, step-daughter Beverley, brother and sisters - Arthur, Maureen, Sandra, (Diane, deceased) Lorraine, Jacqui, grandchildren Carly, Aiden, Travis, Olivia, Aaron and Kerry, and nieces and nephews, and many friends.

Everyone who knows Chris has a kind word to say about her, usually accompanied by a funny tale or two. She was an amazing lady, with incredible warmth, strength and humour despite fighting this awful illness cancer. She put her own illness aside and always put others first, whether that was protecting her family from the extent of her illness - always wearing a smile, or helping others whilst she was in hospital herself. She never once let it destroy her spirit, as we will never let it destroy our memories of her, so although cancer took her in the end, it hasnt won.

We have set up this page to allow you to donate in memory of a beautiful wife, daughter, sister, mother, auntie, friend, INSPIRATION xx

Anything we can raise will go towards helping people like Chris face cancer head on, and battle it just like she did, and hopefully come through the other side.

What cancer cannot do !
Cancer is so limited !!
It cannot cripple love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
... It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship
It cannot suppress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot conquer the spirit
It cannot steal eternal life...
