Heartbreaking Loss: Mum and Grandmother Pass Away Within Days 💔
In a tragic turn of events, the Gregory family is mourning the sudden loss of both Donna and Carla Gregory, a beloved grandmother and mother. Carla, 60, fell ill shortly after her mum Donna, 79, passed away, leaving their family in shock and heartbreak.
Carla, who was a cherished dinner lady in Cardiff schools and a passionate bargain hunter, returned to the city when Donna was hospitalised. Sadly, not long after arranging her mum’s funeral, Carla also fell seriously ill and despite medical efforts, she too passed away. Her daughter, Shannon, shared that her mother had been diagnosed with cardiomyopathy but had been living a vibrant, fulfilling life with a defibrillator assisting her heart.
The double tragedy has left Shannon, Amber, and Liam grappling with grief and struggling with unexpected funeral costs. The siblings have set up a fundraiser to honour their mum and nan properly. The family expresses profound gratitude for nearly £4,000 already donated by kind supporters.
Donna’s career as an NHS nurse and Carla’s dedication to Cardiff schools left lasting impressions of love, kindness, and service. Shannon recalls her mum’s joy in finding bargains and creating beautiful diamond art, treasures the family will hold dear. Donna’s legacy as a devoted NHS nurse is equally celebrated.
The Gregorys are seeking answers about Carla’s sudden decline, while also navigating the emotional and financial strain of losing two treasured family members so close together.
You can support their cause and help provide a fitting farewell to both Donna and Carla. Remaining funds will be donated to The British Heart Foundation and Age UK, reflecting their lives’ work and passions.
Thank you for the overwhelming support during this difficult time. Your kindness brings much-needed comfort.
