Miss that smile everyday angel. X
Love you Ray xx

Mum, Grandma & Grandad you are dearly missed especially this time of year as we always spent Christmas as a family.

We all love and miss you.

Always in our thoughts, miss you both everyday. I hold on tight to the special memories I keep.

A wonderful husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, forever missed

In memory of my beautiful sister Donna Markham, who sadly passed away last year. Lovingly looked after by the staff at St Barnabas.

To Kevin,

I’ve never met you, but want to say how wonderful your daughter is. There were times I didn’t think I would make it through the year, but she has saved me in more ways than she’ll ever know and I will be forever grateful.

You should be sooooo proud of her and I know she misses you so much.

Hopefully one day I’ll get to meet you and tell you how wonderful she is, how she has turned in to a beautifully funny and kind person, always thinking about others.

This was always your favourite time of year Mum, it’s so hard not having you here, but your memory will always live on by lighting a light and sharing your stories. I love and miss you so much Mum my Angel xxxxx

He was a Disney loving man who loved us so much.

Love you miss you

Mum and Dad always made Christmas special when I was growing up and love and miss them every day but especially at this special time of year

Millennium Christmas 1999 when we gathered as a Family at Russell And Sue’s House in Rushden, Northamptonshire and had fun, food, and games, it was a good family get together, full of love, joy and laughter to celebrate ringing the New Year 2000 in.

In loving memory of our dear daughter and mother, Gayle you are with us always.
Parents Jan, Tom, Children, Reece, Georgia, Sophie, Chloe and Charlie.

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.

Dear Mummy,

Miss you so much, love you even more.

Lots of love,
Soph, Georgie & Ed

In loving memory of such a wonderful Dad x

Miss you every day.
Remember you every day.
Love you forever.
Happy Christmas

We will be thinking of you as always this Christmas. It is the first Christmas that our family is back together in your old house, so it will bring back so many happy memories. You will both be missed, especially Grandad’s jokes and Grandma’s mince pies and trifle!

Lots of love,

Hannah, Lucy, Ian and Ruth xxx
