Our darling Phoebe passed away suddenly but peacefully on the 7th February at the age of 14 years old.
Much adored daughter of Kev and Laura Symons and adored little sister of Jago and Oscar.
Her insatiable curiosity, wisdom beyond her years, humour and sassiness, intelligence, determination and kindness touched so many lives. She was always there to offer a smile and comfort to others even if she didn’t know them well. She was a light, pure soul who will be so very missed by many. Fly high beautiful girl.
There will be a private family funeral on Friday 4th April which will be followed by a Celebration of Phoebe’s life to be held at Holmleigh Park High School on Saturday 5th April at 3pm.
Everyone is welcome to attend and please wear something green as it was Phoebe’s favourite colour. We would welcome as many people as possible to give our beautiful girl the celebration that she deserves.
No flowers please.
Donations in memory of Phoebe will be given to the Bristol Children’s Hospital. Your donation can be placed in the collection envelopes at the service or given online using the donate here button below.
