Tina Maria Squires
Obituary
Our mum was more than just a mother to us—she was a force of nature, a woman of remarkable strength, and a constant source of love and inspiration. Not only did she raise me and my three brothers with endless patience, wisdom, and warmth, but she also thrived in her professional life. As a skilled landscape gardener and a qualified bricklayer, she brought beauty and craftsmanship into everything she touched. Her hands built more than just walls and gardens—they built a home, a family, and lasting friendships. Her passion, work ethic, and determination shaped the lives of those around her, teaching us the value of hard work, resilience, and kindness. To her friends, extended family, and all who knew her, she was a beacon of strength and love. We are who we are today because of her, and she will forever live in our hearts, guiding us as she always has.

I remember all the times mom made the best Sunday roasts, no one, NO ONE has ever made a dinner like she does, and I wish we could all sit around and have it again with her, have a huge laugh and crack a couple beers with the music channels on. Miss you mom ❤️ Love you forever and ever, amen x

I remember when I was helping mom clean the swingy chair and she suddenly shouted omg there's a spider on your shoulder!! And I sprinted all the way down the garden, stripping my clothes off and patting myself down, screaming, all while mom was absolutely howling at the top of the garden, for her to eventually say "only joking" haha. Miss you mom xx

Our Auntie Tina brought fun, laughter and strength to all. A fantastic sister to my mother Trish and her other brothers / sisters. Tina loved having her family close and treasured the time with her grandchildren. So many fond memories over the years and stories we will remember forever. I’ll be raising a pint of the favourite beverage. Love from Matt, Sarah and Bam. xxxx

Pad and I have lots of memories with Tina going abroad and in this country, including weekend sight seeing breaks to London and going to the West End shows. Her favourite place we went was definitely Turkey, we had the best time ever. I Will miss the shopping around Redditch with her, and our nights out. She wasn't just my sister, she was also my best friend ❤ I will always love and miss her forever ❤💜

I will always remember after nights out with Jase would stay up with Tina just chatting away until early hours in the morning! Spending Saturday afternoons having brunch, you've been framed being on then having music quiz nights... She would always beat me at guess the song no matter how hard I tried she always knew every single song lol!!!
I will miss you so so much Tina 😢 Love you always. Bec ( sometimes necky lee ) xxx

I remember taking mom to her first proper gig, John Mayer, at the O2 arena in London, we spent the day in London, going round all the places you would go to in London, then went to O2 early, had a slap up Italian meal, she ordered tomato Pasta, she loved it, we then got into thr Arena and I remember how amazed and in awe of the size of the place, she didn't take her eyes off the stage! She sung along to every word of her favourite JM song, New Light, and it was played last with confetti coming down, she had the best time and I know how much it meant to her going there. Love you Mom x

When it comes to the best mum, I feel I have won the lottery. I have had the best childhood any one could have hoped for, I never went without, never needed or wanted for anything, mum always provided! She was the most unselfish person I ever knew, she always put us, her kids, above all. My mum, best friend, agony aunt, I am going to miss you so so much each and every day. Keep grandad, nan and bobby busy until I get up there. I love you so so much!
