This site is dedicated to 'My Yiddishe Mama'
My Yiddishe Mama, I need her more than ever now.
My Yiddishe Mama, I'd love to kiss that wrinkled brow.
I long to hold her hands once more as in days gone by
And ask her to forgive me for things I did that made her cry.
How few were her pleasures, she never cared for fashion's styles
Her jewels and treasures, she found them in her baby's smiles
Oh, I know that I owe what I am today
To that dear little lady so old and gray
To that wonderful Yiddishe Mama of mine.
Anne Cohen was born in London on February 18, 1926. She was much loved and is deeply missed by all her friends and family.
She was taken suddenly, unexpectedly by something that had never caused a problem before and so died painfully of septacemia, and because of this she suffered until the end and we her children sat and watched her during the last 12 days of her life and were helpless to help ease her pain.

Nearly 3 years without you,
how time has gone so fast,
yet in my hard is a ache that will always last.
Each it seems much harder to live without you near.
Oh Mum how I love you
It will never dim over the years.

You would have been 98 today mum. Hope you met your birthday twin in 2022 - HM The Queen who you loved. The 17th birthday without you here to celebrate with you. Miss you as much now as the day you passed. Hope Danielle Louise is with you or you see her and if do tell her, her mum will never stop missing or loving her. xxxxx

16 years now since you so suddenly left us. You are missed beyond measure. So many new Great Grandchildren you would have taken such pleasure in and your oldest one about to marry, how you would have enjoyed that but they are ensuring you will be there by name and photo and I hope in spirit. Love you always Mum. xxx

Even now mum after all this time (15 years) I still nearly every day think when something I would normally tell you has happened think I must phone you and tell you, never mind missing our daily chats. Love you always xxx
