Deborah James’ children show same strength as mum as they carry out her final wishes

The Daily Mirror: Deborah James passed away at the age of 40 on June 28, after a five-year-long battle with bowel cancer

Wobbling just a little as his mother’s coffin was lifted on to his shoulder, 14-year-old Hugo Poland Bowen began the slow, painful walk into church, demonstrating the same fierce courage Dame Deborah James had shown during years of illness with bowel cancer.

That walk into church, the weight of his mother’s wicker coffin bearing down on his shoulder, will have been the longest, most surreal of Hugo’s life.

But Hugo, his sister Eloise, 12, and their father Sebastien bravely carried out Dame Deborah’s final wishes and under dazzling sunshine that reflected the most vibrant of women.
