Welcome to The Fighting Cocks Pub

 My beautiful Sister was the life and soul of the party. She was loved by everyone. She walked into the room and her presence lit it up. My mother's heart is broken. We are all devastated. Thank you everyone for your kind words. Xxx 

 In Loving Memory of Annie

There are no words big enough to hold all the love, warmth and laughter that Annie brought into our lives. Annie had a way of making people feel welcome and special. Her kindness was immense and her smile and spirit unforgettable.

She lives on, in the memories we shared, in the lives she touched and in the love that surrounds her always. We will miss her —her spirit, her gentleness, her joy.

Rest peacefully, Annie. You were so deeply loved and always will be.

Love Chris, Jenny, Charlotte and Jasmine Edge 

 Our gorgeous Annie - sending you all so much love .

I am so deeply saddened to read the awful news about Annie’s passing. I have visited the pub twice in recent times and she was a wonderful host. The second occasion she was having a terrible time with low gas pressure and the meals were taking forever to cook. She dealt with the customers so expertly, didn’t show the pressure. She was such a warm lovely person. My deepest condolences to Rob and her family.

   Annie made a massive contribution to community life in Stottesdon and will be missed so much. 

Such devastating news for Rob, her family and for people whose lives she touched.

Annie was a lovely lady. She had a great sense of humour, and love of life. You could always guarantee a warm welcome when you visited the Fighting Cocks pub. 

Rest in peace Annie - you will be sorely missed . 

Sending our sincerest condolences .

Loved your passion for flowers and creating with you!

Rest in peace.

Annie was wonderful, so full of warmth and happiness, truly a light has gone out in our village. My 5 years olds words “That’s not fair she was too lovely”

Thoughts and strength to Rob and her family xx

We're completely heartbroken and still in disbelief. Our sons utterly adore Annie. Whenever she heard them enter the pub she always greeted them with "hello darlings!" and the biggest smile. Both Annie and Rob always took the time to listen to their stories, let them order their own "beer", she always sat with us and chatted about what was going on in our world, and always made sure the boys left with handfuls of jelly beans. Annie is just the kindest and most generous person.

All our love to Rob and his family, Annie's family and the fighting cocks team. Emma, Jamie, Oz and Finn xx

 Devastated by this heart breaking news! Annie was a wonderful lady, kind, caring and the life and soul of our community! We had my nans 80th and grandfathers wake at The Fighting Cocks Stottesdon and both Annie and Rob went above and beyond for us! She will forever be in our thoughts and prayers as will Rob and family! Words just can’t express how sorry we are! From all of us at The Bull Ring Cottage Barbara, Anna, Mike, Kate, Al, George & Grace xxx
