It is with great sadness that we have to announce the death of Rashida Jackie Ali, who passed away at Bedford Hospital on Friday 5th June 2026, aged 79.
She lived a life of fun and adventure, often overcoming obstacles and was proud of her children and grandchildren's achievements.
She will be very much missed by family and friends.
All are welcome at the funeral and wake on the 2nd July 2026.
No flowers please but donations are welcomed for the Shand Stroke Unit at Bedford Hospital, via this link:

We were so impressed by the care that Mum and others received in the Stroke Unit. They are raising money for a Rehab Cafe to help patients recovering from a stroke rebuild independence by practicing everyday skills.
