Final Farewells: A Week of Heartfelt Goodbyes Across Lincolnshire

Every week, we honour and remember the lives of those we have sadly lost across Lincolnshire. These reflective tributes from family and friends have been published in the Lincolnshire Echo and remain eternal on our website and the UK’s leading death notice site, funeral-notices.co.uk. From Saturday, March 22, until Friday, March 28, 2025, we pay tribute to 15 loved ones whose lives have deeply touched their families, friends and community. Among those commemorated this week are Gillian Phyllis Altoft, a cherished grandmother and friend, who passed away peacefully at home. Michael Fletcher, a beloved uncle and friend from Metheringham, also left us this week. Jennifer Gibson, a dearly loved wife, mother and grandmother, sadly passed away at Bassetlaw Hospice. Rita Maude Harker of Boston, Helen Clare Harris, a local primary school teacher from Sleaford, and Eric Hull, a dearly missed husband, father and great-grandfather, are also remembered. Our thoughts go out to the families and friends of Christopher Jones, Michael Sydney Kirkby, Richard Long, Malcolm Medcalf, Carole Ann Pears, Joan Victoria Perry, Betty Ransom, Hilary Sharpe, and Lawrence Edwin (Eddie) Stephenson, who have also bid their final goodbyes. We extend our deepest condolences to all who are grieving during this time.
