In loving memory of Irene (Rene) Templeton, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Rene was much loved by her friends, family and her many dogs, she will be greatly missed.

A kind Hillside supporter, who sadly passed away on 31st October 2021.  Rene loved animals, especially dogs and had many over the years. She took in waifs and strays that nobody else wanted and gave them a safe and loving home.  

For many years Hillside Animal Sanctuary was close to her heart and one of her preferred animal sanctuaries. Rene was a regular donor and visitor to Hillside, she also sponsored various animals at the sanctuary. Rene wanted donations to Hillside to be made instead of flower tributes for her funeral.

Her family and friends hope you are able to continue to support Hillside's good work in her memory.

If you would like to make a donation in Rene's memory, you may do so here.  Hillside are very grateful for any donations received.

You are also welcome to ring the Sanctuary office on 01603 736200 to make a donation.

Thank you...
