The family have urged those who loved and cherished her to know that they need only look around themselves to see the love which formed a monument to her life.

Devenish also took the opportunity to thank Alice Spenser Higgs and Ludwig’s Roses for donating huge bouquets of roses to ensure that the chapel was decorated with Boje’s favourite white roses.

“As a family, we have been overwhelmed by the huge number of tributes which have poured in for Val. From tributes heralding her professional capabilities, assisting organisations in the city with projects, and streams of journalists who she helped, mentored and cared for were all of great comfort to us.”

“We had absolutely no idea that she had touched so many lives – and touched them so profoundly, but I believe her passion for her job gave her an opportunity to nurture talent and people.”
