Alice MaudHOBSONHOBSON - ALICE MAUD (REES), 18th October 2021 Leaving four children, Alison, Avril, Philip and Robert and her grandson, Lewis. Alice, our mother, was born in Liverpool on 26 April 1926 to parents William and Ada Rees (nee Jones) of Welsh/Manx ancestry. Youngest of three children, loving sister to William and David. Her parents died before her marriage to George (Charlie) Hobson in 1952. After secretarial training Mum enjoyed Conveyancing, working for solicitors in Liverpool, Ormskirk and Southport. She played piano, loved opera, classical music and ballet. Other talents included sewing, knitting, gardening, and legendary baking skills which produced delicious cakes and scones. Inspired by her father she encouraged her children in their studies and interests. Her keen sense of humour and resourcefulness helped her through difficult times. Passionate about wildlife and dogs she supported associated charities and adopted rescued dogs from Freshfield Animal Rescue. Sincere thanks to Mum's friends and neighbours, staff at Care Concern and Southview Lodge, Hesketh Bank, and to Rev Rebecca Clarke at St Stephen's, Banks. Loving and generous mother, considerate to all. We carry you in our hearts and we love you beyond measure. Gorffwys Mewn Heddwch (Rest in Peace).
