On the 22nd of January beloved wife, mother, and grandmother Janet Robe gained her angel wings and tragically passed away after an agonising battle with COVID-19, leaving a devastating impact on her family. Her beloved husband and two children are left to try and pick up the pieces whilst dealing with the heartache and financial burden in the wicked wake of this disease.
Janet was the most caring and selfless woman, always putting the needs of others before her own. She suffered from an autoimmune disease and asthma but despite this, she wanted to give to the community and help as many people as she could. During the first lockdown, Janet reached out to the local area - hand-delivering letters introducing herself, giving her contact details, and reassuring people she was there for them whether this was for an ear to listen, or if they needed support with getting shopping or medical prescriptions; she was there for everyone and anyone.
She has always been such a generous, charitable, and kind natured person, supporting and caring for everyone who came into her life – it was in her nature.
Before lockdown she regularly held MacMillan, coffee mornings and worked for the local council - working with deprived areas in the community as well as working in schools, raising awareness for children in poverty. Janet also supported many other charities including food banks and Christmas appeals. She was an active member in her local church, where she will be dearly missed.
Janet's act of kindness did not stop there as, at the age of 52, she went into fostering. She fostered two boys who lost their grandfather during the lockdown. Again, not thinking of herself but the children that had lost their family. She fostered the boys until she sadly passed away.
This page has been created to help raise awareness of the devastating impact covid-19 has on families and to support her family with the financial costs involved in her passing. In this time of need, Janet’s husband is out of work as he usually works away. This is not something he is able to continue due to the support his children and grandchildren need right now.
Coronavirus really has had a devastatingly emotional and financial impact on her family – please stay at home and take heed of government guidelines, it really could save your life.
