Tribute to Val Clarke

27/01/63 - 23/02/26

Much loved by her family, friends and colleagues. Val touched hearts and souls and will always be remembered.

Val wished for donations to be made to Sobell House Hospice but she also received support and care from Katharine House and her family would like donations split between both charities.

Raised so far

Donation breakdown

Funeral Service

Val asked for no flowers but bright colours to be worn in memory. Purple and green were her two favourite colours.

It will be an emotional day, but we would like to ask everyone to come with a smile as Val would have wanted.

Wow, what an impact you had on me, met you for the first time at work and obviously what did we discuss, walking and hiking, which route was best. Gone too soon, will be greatly missed.

We always admired how Val's positivity about life in general shone through, along with the cheeky smile that went with it. Your strength and courage right to the end will always be remembered. An inspiration to others on so many levels.

Val was a total "one-off" - quirky, fun, warm hearted and game for a challenge. As a Walks Leader she led by example and ensured that we all enjoyed ourselves, including singing songs to keep us going! She will be sadly missed. Rest in peace, Val. Much love. xx
