Loving Mum to Colin Ellis and daughter-in-law Dinah.  Much loved Granny Vee to Caroline and Matt, Abi and Jake, and to great-granddaughters Maple and Lois.  Vee was an energetic, stylish, sociable and caring lady, who loved entertaining, fashion, good food and wine, gardening, travel, taking long walks, crosswords and her Zumba classes!
