This will be our first Christmas without our dad, it was his favourite time of year and we have so many magical memories of our childhood , at this time of the year. We love and miss you every single day xx

Dear Dad,
Each day I miss you and wish you were here
But how blessed am I to have so many precious memories that keep you near.
I listen for you in the music we enjoyed and shared
And, even though a tear may fall, my spirits are lifted and I know you're not far away at all.
Love you Dad – always.

It will be the first Christmas without you. It will never be the same. Love always Sue xxx

I will forever miss you.
Thank you for everything.
Goodnight, god bless
I love you

Happy first Christmas as a Nana to our beautiful Mum. We miss you now more than ever Mum. Xx

We were in the forces and we would come home to Lincoln to see our families. Nan would take us on the bus to town and we would always have a marshmallow cone from the cake shop on the way home. Christmas was always a time for family and still is with fond memories of those times growing up at Christmas and spending time with family we didn't see the rest of the year.

First Christmas without my loving husband Denis, miss you every day, love you always. XxX

Mum,
You will forever be in my thoughts, especially at Christmas time, which you loved.
Love and miss you always ????
