In Loving Memory of

Chloe

Some of you will be aware by now of the passing of our beautiful Chloe Homewood-Allen on 05/02/22. Chloe was, as many of you know, the most compassionate, caring and fun loving soul. She touched many lives and leaves behind an amazing legacy. Chloe reflected many times, since becoming a mum, that her greatest achievement was having her three beautiful children Maisie, Sam and Coral with her loving and courageous husband Steve. We would love for you to share your memories and photos of this wonderful woman. ❤️ (words by Caroline Wilson & Bea Carroll)

This is such sad news & I am so sorry to hear about Chloe.  Please pass on condolances to all of her family & friends. She was just so friendly and welcoming, smiley & happy. I learnt so much from attending her courses and drop in sessions & will always be grateful. Her weekly mindfulness drop in sessions during lockdown were just such a help during this difficult time. Thank you Chloe! Thinking of her family & friends Alison…

I went to Chloe’s class in 2018 and knew I had met a extraordinary person and teacher. I believe that she change a part of me so skilfully and compassionately that I was unaware but changed . Tonight, after 4 years of failing back into the wildernesses of the mind I decided to look for her course to join it again seeing this as  a great decision to seek her wisdom and guidance.once again . I am shocked and heartbroken at this news and wish her family all of my thoughts and prays …

Its taken me 8 months to be able to read these messages or even look at photos. We were blessed with a visit from Steve, Maisie, Sam and Coral this summer, who I love so much. I read this poem this morning and for the first time it felt right to post. Chloe’s dash is the strongest of anyone I have ever met. We all need to channel Chloe’s dash to make the world a better place.  The Dash Poem (By Linda Ellis)   I read of a man who stood to speak At the funeral of a friend He referred to the dates on the tombstone From the beginning…to the end   He noted that first came the date of birth And spoke the following date with tears, But he said what mattered most of all Was the dash between those years   For that dash represents all the time That they spent alive on earth. And now only those who loved them Know what that little line is worth   For it matters not, how much we own, The cars…the house…the cash. What matters is how we live and love And how we spend our dash.  …

To our lovely Chloe, we will miss you so very much.   Meeting you at the start of our family journey and then having you alongside us for the last 14 years was so special and when I look back in years to come, you will always be a big part of my memories when our girls were little; from bumps, to babies, toddlers to teenagers and all the good and bad times those years held for us. Chloe really was something special.  Her warmth, kindness, compassion, energy, positivity, insightfulness, slightly chaotic tendencies! and humour was a package so unique I can definitely say I have never met, nor likely to ever meet someone like her again – she was an absolute one off!! Chloe seemed to live a life with lots of luck, both good and bad.  I admired her determination and struggles with Maisie’s food allergies and how she coped with whatever stresses the family were going through but also she was blessed to have such amazing kids and husband, Steve by her side.  Her luck at the school tombola (and every other competition she entered) was off the scale and we always had a good laugh…

Dearest fun loving Chloe- bouncing curls and always looking for some mischief in the world. You taught me to take my time and appreciate the moment, to be patient and you wrapped your kindness around us all like a warm blanket. Your beautiful children and brave husband Steve will do you proud Chloe though it cuts deep that you’re not here to share in their achievements. A little white feather fell on your sunflower seeds the other day and I like to think you were reminding me to plant those beautiful favourite flowers of yours. I will continue to see your smiling face in the beauty of nature around us and take some comfort in knowing you lived life to the full and made that wonderful presence so well known. Miss you and feel the better for having had you in my life. Your darling Steve, Maisie, Sam and Coral are in our hearts and our thoughts.  Much love Karen, Colin, Iona and Calum xxxx…

What a terrible shock it was to hear about lovely, vivacious, funny, kind Chloe.  We still can’t quite believe it.  We both worked with her at the BBC many years ago, and remember her so fondly and are deeply saddened by her loss.  Chloe touched us, as clearly she touched so many others.  We remember her incredible attention to detail but most of all, all the times we were rocked with laughter.  She was so funny!  Her celebration of life was a loving, heart-rending testament to a truly special woman – beautiful both inside and out.  We send Steve, their three beautiful children, and all Chloe’s family lots of love at this terrible time.  Our hearts are with you.  Adieu belle Chloe….

                                                                                      I met Chloe at a baby group in 2008, she was sitting across from me with baby Maisie lying on a mat in front of her and was so warm and friendly chatting away to everyone like she had known them forever.  Eventually we became friends and many times over the years I thought to myself I have never met any one quite like Chloe before…. she was unique. Many years ago I sat chatting with Chloe in her house in Thorncliffe Gardens, it was not long after she had left the BBC and she was establishing a new career teaching Mindfulness.  She talked so passionately about Mindfulness, about the positive impact it had on her life and how she was determind to share her practice and knowledge so others could benefit from it too.  Years later she ran Mindfulness sessions for service users in my workplace and some continued to talk about the positive impact…

Beautiful Chloe, I have tried to write this a few times, so here goes.. She was the most amazing friend and I feel very lucky to have had her in my life. I don’t really know where to start with the many memories we have shared. I have been lucky enough to know Chloe since Middle school. I hope to be able to share more stories with Steve, Maisie, Sam and Coral sometime. I have tried to include a few things here that they might find funny and will hopefully be of comfort. I met Chloe when she lived on Silverdale Drive and I remember that house very well. Lots of playing in the garden and dressing up and fun Birthday Parties. If Chloe wasn’t allowed out to play, I would hide in the bushes under her window so we could chat. I think it was around this time that we joined Riverside Youth Theatre which was so much fun. We were in lots of productions over the years; The Evacuees, Great Grandmothers Day, lots of Pantomimes and Variety shows. Chloe had the most beautiful singing voice and was a great performer. When Chloe moved to French St we…

Beautiful Chloe, your mad, crazy, joy-filled soul has left an unfillable hole. While your time was over too soon what an incredible legacy you leave in all the hearts you have touched, lives you have changed and of course your three incredible children. You were a unique and amazing woman and it has been an utter priviIege to have called you a friend. I will treasure the times we shared and will never forget all your love and laughter. Rest in peace beautiful girl. Lots of love Leo x…

Chloe was one of the warmest, kindest, most caring people I have ever met. She had a beautiful smile that always put you at ease and made you feel welcome. Although I didn’t see Chloe very often, she really meant a lot to me. I have so many lovely memories of her when Maisie and Aidan were babies. Chloe taught me so much and supported me through some really difficult times in my life. Chloe I am so grateful to have had you in my life. I will miss you so much. Goodbye my beautiful friend xxx  …

Chloe’s smile and her laugh were so infectious. She hasn’t aged a day since I last saw her – many moons ago when we were at University together. I’ll never forget the scrapes we got into, her raucous laugh and our road trips… culminating in beers along the banks of the Thames in Lower Sunbury. Little did I know that I would live just over the river many years later.  I was hoping to get back in touch with Chloe and although I am so sad that this was not meant to be, it is so special to see that she had a loving and beautiful family around her.  I remember you most fondly Chloe and I’m sure you are having lots of laughs wherever you are now, watching over your lovely girls and husband. RIP xxx…

I remember the start of my mindfulness journey was a course that Chloe and Kristine were running. I  loved the relationship you had that really showed up during the course. Lots of fun laughter and compassion and learning. Thinking of you all. Chris…

I first met Chloe at Samye Ling during a mindfulness course where we realised we share a mutual friend in Angela Trainer. She subsequently became my mindfulness MA supervisor offering her guidance and support. My fondest memory of Chloe was not long ago in October when we both attend ‘prayer for the planet’ in support of COP26. It was an inspiring day spent celebrating and connecting with nature. I’d like to share the photos of Chloe delivering a beautiful meditation to the group and also the prayer that we created collectively. I’d like to extend my sincere condolences to yourself, Heather and everyone at the Mindfulness association as well as her family. She will be missed very much. I look forward to joining the Chenrezig meditation in honour of Chloe each Saturday, With warmth and love, Shirley Reynolds…
