My Dad is my hero and my best friend and I miss him so much, especially a round this time of year as he died at the end of November – so Christmas is not the same without you xx
Very special people and much missed
Merry Christmas Mum. Thinking of you always. Love John Amy & boys xx
Such happy family times, now there's only loving memories that remain
Miss you everyday.. Love you forever, Karen xx
St Barnabas made it possible for my husband to spend his last weeks at home as he wished and I was well supported.
Thinking of you both at Christmas & always. Forever in our hearts xxx
Love and miss you every day Dad xxx
Setting up the tree
Thinking off you , at Christmas we all miss you , not being with us to celebrate Christmas with us .
Jeannettes poem,
When you were with us you weren’t one for soft spoken words.
Any attempts at emotional conversation you’d effortlessly swerve.
If you were here now and you sensed this heart-pour.
You’d tell me to shush, sit down, to ‘close the door’.
We’d all sit in the lounge, all cosy and all warm.
Put a film on the TV, then talk through it all.
With a cat on your lap and the dog at your knees.
You’d pet and you’d fuss until I agreed ‘Aren’t they so pretty’.
We’d sit there for hours and put the world to rights.
Reminiscing and laughing about all the good old times.
Giggling at memories till the day turned to the dark.
Like the new haircut ‘chode’ or your day trip to the park….
Even at the end you were always true to you.
A fabulous diva, and you, through and through.
Walk past your reflection and your hair you would tease.
With your effortless style and you in your dungarees.
One thing is for certain, there’s no one quite like you.
Even treatment shakes were taken by champagne flute.
Now you are gone, and it’s time to say.
That you could bring sunshine to the darkest of day.
And although I never said it, you know what you meant to me.
My life lived with you is full of endless happy memories.
From little girls to little women, with you I have grown.
You have been there from the beginning, your home is now my home.
So I want to say Thank you, for everything you have done.
In my heart you are my family, you are an adopted Mum.
You have always been there so Goodbye is hard to say.
But I know I’ll see you again, on the other-side one day.
You’ll be holding hands with Dereck and Barbs, Molly and JellyBean too.
And I will get to tell you…. J-dog, I love you.
Reunited and back together like the two halves of the whole you always were. Enjoy your Christmas together
With lots of love xx
I lost Ken 8 years and he is still in my heart
A beautiful inspirational daughter, a wonderful mother to my 2 grandchildren and Nana to my great grandchildren. Missed but remembered every single day xxxxx
This will be my first Christmas without my beloved Florence, and I sadly miss her with all my heart. I know that this is what Florence would have wanted as St Barnabas made her last days comfortable.
Loved and remembered every day, but even more so at Christmas.
Wishing you could both be here to celebrate with your new great- grandson.
Love from us all. xxxx
Missing you all, never forget you.

Sending love this Christmas we miss you.
Mum you loved Christmas so much, this second one without you hurts so much. We carry on for you as that’s what you would want. You will always be the angel at top of our tree.
You all meant so much to us all. We have many happy memories of time spent with you. Missing you so much.
With all our love
Jill, Ian and Chris
Our first Christmas without you, missing you more every day ????
Always loved and remembered by all your family xxx
To Robin Merry Christmas my darling. Love you forever xxKxx
HER SMILE WOULD LIGHT UP A ROOM. THE MOST SELFLESS AND CARING DAUGHTER ANY FATHER COULD ASK FOR. LOVED HER SO MUCH.
