- Zena Louise Miller | 25th May 1971-4th January 2026 | Digital Gravestones
Zena Louise Miller25th May 19714th January 2026Zena was born on 25th May 1971 in Billinge, to her loving parents Catherine and Stuart. A sister to Stephen and Nichola, auntie to Laura and Connor, cousin and friend to many. She was a devoted mum to Chloe, Cameron & Alex, much loved Nanny Z to Jack and Maison. She attended St Mary’s School, before going on to Notre Dame, where she excelled academically. Zena followed her own path and pursued hairdressing, a career she loved and quickly qualified in. Never one to stand still, she later decided to follow a new dream and trained as a nurse at Edge Hill University, dedicating her life to caring for others. Zena was a hardworking and ambitious woman who rose through the ranks in her profession, earning a Master’s degree from Chester University in 2022 and becoming Deputy Divisional Director at Aintree, where she was respected, admired, and loved by colleagues. In 1991, Zena met the father of her children, Mark beginning a chapter of life that would bring her the greatest joy — becoming a mum. Chloe arrived in 1994, followed by Cameron in 1997 and Alex in 1999. Zena and Mark married in 1998 in the church where her life would later be celebrated. Though life took them on different paths, together they created many happy family memories. Above all else, Zena was a devoted and selfless mother. She gave her children everything — love, guidance, support, life lessons, and countless acts of generosity. Whether it was advice, encouragement, or the thoughtful gifts she so loved giving at birthdays and Christmas, Zena always made sure those she loved never went without. Her children will forever be grateful for the love and sacrifices she made for them. Later in life, Zena found love again with Howard, and through him her family grew even bigger. She embraced Andrew, Sophie, Lucy, and little Harry with open arms and loved them as her own. Howard and his family meant a great deal to her, bringing happiness and companionship to her life. Their love was deep and devoted, and after Howard’s passing in April 2023, she carried that love with her always. Zena had a passion for travel and a love of life. She treasured family, friendships, laughter, and making memories. She was someone people turned to — caring, strong, generous, and endlessly selfless. In the face of illness, Zena showed extraordinary courage and bravery. She fought with strength and dignity, enduring so much without complaint, always thinking of others before herself. Even in her final days, her greatest concern was for the happiness and wellbeing of those she loved. Zena was also a proud and loving Nanny to Jack and Maison, and it breaks hearts that she will not be here to watch them grow. But her family take comfort in knowing her love and guidance will remain with them always. Zena leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, strength, and devotion. She was a beloved daughter, sister, partner, mother, nanny, auntie, colleague, and friend whose life touched so many. Though deeply missed, she will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. Rest peacefully, Zena — reunited with those you have missed so dearly, and watching over your family with the same love you gave throughout your life. You will never be forgotten.

- George Foreman | January 1949-March 2025 | Digital Gravestones
George ForemanJanuary 1949March 2025George Edward Foreman (January 10, 1949 – March 21, 2025)[3][4] was an American professional boxer, entrepreneur, minister, and author. In boxing, he competed between 1967 and 1997 and was nicknamed "Big George". He was a two-time world heavyweight champion and an Olympic gold medalist. As an entrepreneur, he was known for the George Foreman Grill. After a troubled childhood, Foreman took up amateur boxing and won a gold medal in the heavyweight division at the 1968 Summer Olympics. Having turned professional the next year, he won the world heavyweight title with a stunning second-round knockout of the then-undefeated Joe Frazier in 1973. He defended the belt twice before suffering his first professional loss to Muhammad Ali in the Rumble in the Jungle in 1974.[5] Unable to secure another title opportunity, Foreman retired after a loss to Jimmy Young in 1977. Following what he referred to as a born again experience, Foreman became an ordained Christian minister.[6][7] Ten years later he announced a comeback, and in 1994 at age 45 won the unified WBA, IBF, and lineal heavyweight championship titles by knocking out 26-year-old Michael Moorer. He dropped the WBA belt rather than face his mandatory title defense soon after, and following a single successful title defense against Axel Schulz, Foreman relinquished his IBF title as well on June 28, 1995. At 46 years and 169 days old, he was the oldest world heavyweight champion in history.[8] Foreman was the oldest to ever win the world heavyweight boxing championship of major honors and the second-oldest in any weight class after Bernard Hopkins (at light heavyweight). He retired in 1997 at the age of 48, with a final record of 76 wins (68 knockouts) and 5 losses, one of the famous losses coming at the hands of Muhammad Ali who hit him with a lightning fast 1-2 combination which was “the fastest punch” Foreman had ever seen. Foreman has been inducted into the World Boxing Hall of Fame and International Boxing Hall of Fame. The International Boxing Research Organization rates Foreman as the eighth-greatest heavyweight of all time.[9] In 2002, he was named one of the 25 greatest fighters of the past 80 years by The Ring.[10] The Ring ranked him as the ninth-greatest puncher of all time.[11] He was a ringside analyst for HBO's boxing coverage for 12 years until 2004.[12] Outside boxing, Foreman was a successful entrepreneur and known for his promotion of the George Foreman Grill, which has sold more than 100 million units worldwide.[13] In 1999, he sold the commercial rights to the grill for $138 million.[14] In Loving Memory Of: George Foreman January 1949 - March 2025 76 Years Old Heavyweight Boxing Champion Your memorial?

Tito JacksonOctober 1953September 2024Toriano Adaryll "Tito" Jackson (October 15, 1953 – September 15, 2024) was an American musician. He was an original member of the Jackson 5 (later known as the Jacksons), who rose to fame in the late 1960s and 1970s with the Motown label and later had continued success with the group on the Epic label in the late 1970s and 1980s. Tito began a solo career in 2003 performing as a blues musician. Throughout his career, he was nominated for three Grammy Awards,[1] and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Jackson 5.[2] Jackson was born Toriano Adaryll Jackson at St. Mary's Mercy Hospital in Gary, Indiana on October 15, 1953.[3][4] He was the third of ten children of the Jackson family: Rebbie, Jackie, Jermaine, La Toya, Marlon, Brandon, Michael, Randy, and Janet who lived in a two-bedroom house in Gary. His father, Joseph, was a steel mill worker, and played R&B in a band, the Falcons, with his brother Luther. His mother, Katherine, is a Jehovah's Witness. She played the piano and the clarinet. At ten years of age, Tito was caught playing his father's guitar after he broke a string.[5] After fixing the string, Joe demanded that he play for him. Once he was finished, Joe bought him his own guitar, and convinced Tito, Jackie, and Jermaine to form a singing group. He was impressed with the vocals of Jackie and Jermaine.[6] By 1964, Marlon and Michael both joined the group the Jackson 5 after Katherine discovered that they could sing. Katherine is a country-and-western fan, and she sang harmonies with her sons. Before Motown signed them, the brothers spent years rehearsing at home.

Akira ToriyamaApril 1955March 2024Akira Toriyama (Japanese: 鳥山 明, Hepburn: Toriyama Akira, April 5, 1955 – March 1, 2024)[1] was a Japanese manga artist and character designer. He first achieved mainstream recognition for creating the popular manga series Dr. Slump, before going on to create Dragon Ball (his most famous work) and acting as a character designer for several popular video games such as the Dragon Quest series, Chrono Trigger, and Blue Dragon. Toriyama is regarded as one of the authors who changed the history of manga, as his works are highly influential and popular, particularly Dragon Ball, which many manga artists cite as a source of inspiration. He earned the 1981 Shogakukan Manga Award for best shōnen manga with Dr. Slump, and it went on to sell over 35 million copies in Japan. It was adapted into a successful anime series, with a second anime created in 1997, 13 years after the manga ended.
