Arrangements for the celebration of Samantha Judge-Clark-Beeston

Samantha Judge-Clark-Besston

Monday 12th May 2025 at 12 noon

Highbury Hall

We have now reached the limit in terms of capacity for guests at Highbury Hall – we’re sorry if you haven’t already had the chance to reply.

Family and friends are invited to a ceremony at Highbury Hall to remember and celebrate Sam’s life.

The ceremony will begin at 12.30pm and will last around an hour, please arrive from 12 noon. Sam’s coffin will then sit in a separate room to enable everyone to say a personal goodbye and place a flower if you wish, until around 2.30pm. At this point everyone will follow her outside to wave her onwards. A private cremation will take place the following morning.

After the ceremony you will be invited to place a flower in a band around Sam’s coffin – if you can, please bring a single stem with you so that you can take part.

Everyone is invited to remain in the hall for refreshments and food afterwards.

    Will always remember your smile, your laughter, your love for life and your friendship.

    Will never forget our covid quiz and taskmaster nights where we had such a laugh during difficult times with family and friends

    You are such an inspiration and we will miss you, but never forget you.

    Love You Sam xx

      I was lucky enough to work alongside Sam for a while at the WB Studio Tour and she was a lovely person; very easy to work with and get along with. She had a beautiful smile and a lovely laugh – I don’t think I remember her ever NOT smiling. She was warm and friendly and didn’t mind us telling her how handsome we thought her father was; she clearly was very proud of her family and loved ones and when she left the role, it was to go with Tom on a new adventure. She fought the illness with incredible bravery and displayed such courage. My sympathy and love to her family and friends.

    Sam was amazing. We shared our Jellycat obsession and planned a visit that sadly never got to happen. She was an inspiration and will be missed greatly. In her honour we will be training for a marathon for the race for life and we will be running in her name.

    Sam always lit up the day every time I saw her. She was kind, amusing and fun. I never saw a down side to her. There are no goodbyes for us. Wherever she is I will always remember her!!

    My first true neighbour who then became a friend… or like my daughter called you ‘The beautiful lady with the cat!’. One of the most strongest women I have ever came across….. a true inspiration. Thank you for being you!

    Sam , you lit up room with your smile and your beauty. You were funny, kind and caring
    Our quiz nights during lock down were amazing especially the night when we were doing
    Catchprase. You were convinced you had the right answer . You kept saying it was Chilly Willy. It turned out to be As cool as Cucumber. Mind you I do think a few cocktails had been drunk.

    Sam we will miss you so so much and will never forget you.xx

      Sam, beautiful Sam. I have never known anyone to have such a zest for life like you had. You lit up every room with your personality. It always makes me smile when I imagine you welcoming Harry Potter fans into the Great Hall as though you were Harry’s best friend! I can almost hear you telling brides how amazing they looked in their wedding dresses. And I remember your face when Neil showed his ‘cheeks’ on holiday in Italy! These are how I will remember you Sam, with tears and laughter 🥰

    Sam was a little ray of sunshine appearing at our front door with her beaming smile & joyful demeanour. She would bus over from Hove & meet up with Georgia our daughter, put her make up on & walk to school. She became a big part of our little family. Dancing & singing round the lounge, watching the latest Disney movies & simply bringing joy to everything she became involved with. You are missed by so many & the pain we’re feeling is a testament to the love we all had for you. Sending sincere condolences to the Judge-Clarke-Beeston-Muckles

    Watching you grow from a toddler into a beautiful, caring and always smiling young lady are memories I will treasure forever. Your Nan always said your love of Disney was down to my collection of books and I will always remember you leafing through them even though they were so large and heavy you could barely hold them… Love you my Darling ‘adopted’ Granddaughter… xxxxxx

    I am fortunate to have known Sam from a young age. Though our paths hadn’t crossed in recent years, it’s wonderful to know that she remained the same bright, joyful spirit I remember—always full of energy, warmth, and kindness.
    I’ll always remember the beautiful bond she shared with Kelly and Gill—it was truly special.
    My heartfelt sympathy goes out to everyone who knew and loved her.
