In Loving Memory Of: Israel Vázquez December 1977 - December 2024 46 Years Old Three-time boxing world champion Your memorial? Click here to edit... Share this Memorial with Friends & Family: Share Memorial on FB Biography: Israel Vázquez Castañeda (December 25, 1977 – December 3, 2024)[1] was a Mexican professional boxer who competed from 1995 to 2010. He was a three-time super bantamweight world champion, having held the IBF title from 2004 to 2005; and the WBC, The Ring titles twice from 2005 to 2008. Vázquez is best known for his series of four fights against fellow Mexican Rafael Márquez. In 1995, Vázquez made his professional debut in the bantamweight division at the age of 17. He stopped his first nine opponents before suffering a knock out loss himself. Fighting mainly in the U.S. and at junior featherweight, he beat 11 opponents, most notably Óscar Larios (20-0), before losing a split decision to Marcos Licona. Vázquez scored 12 consecutive victories, and in 2002, he met Larios in a rematch for the interim WBC Super Bantamweight Title . This time, he was outboxed and stopped in the 12th round. Vázquez rebounded with a stoppage of ex-world title holder Jorge Eliecer Julio and won the vacant IBF Junior Featherweight title against southpaw Jose Luis Valbuena in 2004. In the first defence of his IBF title he knocked out undefeated Armenian Artyom Simonyan in the 5th round. In 2005, Vázquez opted to fight WBC champion Óscar Larios for a third time with the WBC belt on the line instead of defending his IBF belt. He won the rubber match by technical knockout in the third round — after the fight was stopped due to a large cut over Larios's left eye, thus becoming The Ring and Lineal Junior Featherweight champion and ending Lario's streak of nine consecutive title fight victories.[2] On June 10, 2006, Vázquez defeated former champion Ivan Hernández (23-1-1). Vázquez defeated the WBO Bantamweight champion Jhonny González on September 16, 2006 in a bout where Vázquez was knocked down twice before coming back to win the match by 10th round TKO.

In Loving Memory Of: Terry Griffiths October 1947 - December 2024 77 Years Old Welsh Snooker Player Your memorial? Click here to edit... Share this Memorial with Friends & Family: Share Memorial on FB Biography: Terence Martin Griffiths OBE (16 October 1947 – 1 December 2024) was a Welsh professional snooker player, coach, and pundit. After winning several amateur titles, including the Welsh Amateur Championship in 1975 and back-to-back English Amateur Championships in 1977 and 1978, Griffiths turned professional in June 1978 at the age of 30. In his second professional tournament, he qualified for the 1979 World Snooker Championship. He reached the final of the event where he defeated Dennis Taylor by 24 frames to 16. This was only the second time a qualifier had won the World Snooker Championship, after Alex Higgins in 1972; only Shaun Murphy in 2005 has since emulated the achievement. In 1988, Griffiths again reached the final of the competition. He was tied with Steve Davis, 8–8, but lost the match 11–18. Griffiths reached at least the quarter-finals of the World Championship for nine consecutive years, from 1984 to 1992. He also won the Masters in 1980 and the UK Championship in 1982, completing snooker's Triple Crown. Griffiths was runner-up at the Masters three times and reached the final of the 1989 European Open, where he lost the deciding frame to John Parrott. Although he also won several other tournaments, Griffiths's determination to match his rival Davis led to changes in technique which commentators have said cost him his natural flair for playing. He announced his retirement from professional snooker in 1996 to become the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association's director of coaching, and developed a coaching career which has included working with leading players Stephen Hendry, Mark Williams and Ding Junhui.

In Loving Memory Of: Barbara Taylor Bradford May 1933 - November 2024 91 Years Old British-American Novelist Your memorial? Click here to edit... Share this Memorial with Friends & Family: Share Memorial on FB Biography: Barbara Taylor Bradford OBE (10 May 1933 – 24 November 2024)[3] was a British-American best-selling novelist. Her debut novel, A Woman of Substance, was published in 1979 and sold over 30 million copies worldwide.[4] She wrote 40 novels, all bestsellers in England and the United States. Barbara Taylor was born in Leeds, West Riding of Yorkshire, England[5] to Freda and Winston Taylor. Her father was an engineer who had lost a leg while serving in the First World War.[6] She attended a nursery school in the Leeds suburb of Upper Armley alongside the writer Alan Bennett.[6] As a child during the Second World War, she held a jumble sale at her school and donated the £2 proceeds to the "Aid to Russia" fund. She later received a handwritten thank-you letter from Clementine Churchill, the wife of Prime Minister Winston Churchill.[7] Her older brother Vivian died of meningitis before she was born. She later described her mother as having "put all her frustrated love into me."[8] Her parents' marriage is fictionalized in her 1986 novel An Act of Will.[6] In her youth, Barbara Taylor read Charles Dickens, the Brontë sisters, Thomas Hardy, and Colette.[9] At the age of ten she decided to be a writer after sending a story to a magazine. She was paid 7s 6d for the story, with which she bought handkerchiefs and a green vase for her parents.[6] Taylor Bradford's biographer, Piers Dudgeon, later uncovered evidence that her mother Freda Walker was the illegitimate daughter of Oliver Robinson, 2nd Marquess of Ripon, a local Yorkshire landowner who employed her mother, Edith Walker, as a servant. Dudgeon informed Taylor Bradford that her grandmother and Ripon had had three children together. After some hesitation, Taylor Bradford allowed Dudgeon to publish this information in his biography.[6] Although initially angry at Dudgeon's discovery, she later said that "I came round. There's no stigma now."[6] Her grandmother later spent time in workhouses,[6] which Taylor Bradford explored in the ITV television series Secrets of the Workhouse (2013).[10] Gallery: Listen To Their Voice: Barbara Taylor Bradford 00:00 / 00:27 Location Of Memorial: Not publicly known Memorial Created By: Anonymous

In Loving Memory Of: Lesley Ann Horne 20 January 1962 - 21 January 2021 59 Love you more Your memorial? Click here to edit... Share this Memorial with Friends & Family: Share Memorial on FB Biography: 💗 🦋Lesley Ann Horne🦋💗 20.01.62 ~ 21.01.21 Who better than myself to write my life story, as I remember it. I'll try not to waffle on too long. In 1962 I was born in Celtic road, Deal. In my nans house, in the front bedroom. We called my nan mother as she was the hub of our families. I was the second born to my parents, Cyril and Elizabeth Ashby. My sister Dawn was two years older, then came Lorraine and then my little brother Christopher. I remember my childhood being a happy one, we didn't have loads of money but we never went without. As I grew up I spent a lot of time at my nan, mothers house. As my mum was in and out of hospital with an ulcerated leg and dad was stationed away a lot. But mother showed me so much love and care that I always said I wanted to be her. Especially cuddly, and years later I got my wish to be a cuddly nanny. I attended St Mary's school, moving to St Edmunds in Dover then moved to deal secondary making loads of friends along the way. I met Billy at the tender age of 12 years so yes it progressed to puppy love and then at the age of 17 I was given the most precious gift of our daughter Nicola in 1979. We went on to have my one and only son Jason in 1982. And although my relationship did not last with Billy as we both got together too young we remained firm friends and his family will always be my family, they always treated me as one of their own. It was difficult raising two young children on my own I was overwhelmed with love for my Nicola and Jason and I would've gone without for them they were my world. I then met Trevor, my soulmate, who took my children on as his own. He had two children of his own so we became a family. I have always seen his two daughters as my own, Louise and Suzanne, having weekends and family holidays. In 1988 we were blessed with our own daughter Stephanie, which made our lives complete. Holidays was always our passion and we would be off traveling the world. In 1991 Trevor and I married and it truly was the happiest day of my life. In 1995 I found out I was pregnant with our daughter Samantha, something we had not planned, but when she was born she was the apple of her dads eye and we was both so happy. She was spoilt by her brother and sisters. Sadly in 2007 our Samantha was killed in a RTC. Losing a child is not something you recover from, she was only 11 years old and it broke our hearts in two. I did not want to live anymore and my body started to shut down, but thankfully our FLO, police officer Nev, got me back on the merry go round as he said I have to live for my remaining children. I returned to my job at Ripplevale school, but life was not the same. Sadly after a year Trevor and I parted, not because we did not love each other, he was always a good husband and father, but our grief took over our world and we separated. However I still class him as my soulmate as I never found the love that we shared together, I think I knew I never would. In 2010 I married Phil. He was always a joker and never took life seriously. Our marriage did not last long but I don't regret meeting Phil as I felt I would never smile again and definitely not laugh, but the joker he was he brought me back to life and made me laugh and smile so thanks for that Phil, no regrets. I have had many jobs through my life, whispers shoe factory, bar work, Haffendons, schools, children in care, care worker, night shifts, anything that fitted into me being a good mum to my children. In 2010 I took on my greatest role as a foster mum to Tracey. I was never ready to stop being a mum so taking on a 12 year old girl who was challenging and had attitude, was hard to say the least. But we grew to love one another and she will always be my special daughter. I went on to foster Jordan, Tyler and many respite children. Not forgetting Bradley who moved in with me in 2016. He has always been hard work, but living with me for years we get each other. Sadly in 2018 I was diagnosed with bowel cancer and had my bowel removed, and got Winnie, my colostomy bag. I did not care about having a bag, I was just happy my cancer had been removed and I was alive. However in 2019 on a yearly check it was found to have mastated onto my liver and I was told it was secondary cancer and they was unable to remove or cure. My world fell apart as I was not ready to leave this world, cancer is so cruel. I have really put up a good fight, attending hospital appointments, chemo appointments, infections and anything it threw at me. In 2020 cancer has gone into both lungs, but I continue to fight. I know my body is getting weaker but I won't stop the fight. But obviously by listening to this, my life story, then the cancer has won the war, but I beat the battles! My whole life has been my children and my amazing grandchildren. They are all I have lived and breathed for so : Nicola, Jason, Louise, Suzanne, Stephanie, Brandon, Jordan, Ryan, Dylan, Cooper, Sienna and my baby Kobe. Also extended family of foster children and grandchildren and Suzanne's and Louise's children. I promise you I may not be visible to the eye but I will never leave you and I will watch over you all! Always and forever! My work on earth is done and I need to go up and get lots of cuddles off my Samantha, my mum and mother. Please don't be sad, think of me with a smile. I will be at peace and reunited with the ones I love, so don't feel sad for me and live your life to the full. Until we are all reunited. Sorry I do talk a lot, anyone that knows me knows that. I'm not saying goodbye, just till we meet again. Before I sign off I would like to thank everyone who helped and supported me through my cancer journey, Nicola, Kirk, Ja, Natasha, Stef, I would not have got this far without you, love you so much! My amazing family and friends. The afternoon lunches, texts, phone calls, coffees, all meant so much to me and helped keep me strong and fighting so sending you all my love, hugs and kisses. Off on my next journey now so all look after one another and please give my children and grandchildren extra hugs. Thank you. Love always and forever ❤️ Lesley ❤️ Gallery: Listen To Their Voice: Lesley Ann Horne 00:00 / 00:27 Location Of Memorial: Hamilton road Cemetery, Deal, Kent Memorial Created By: Her Loving family
