Always and forever in my heart, Not only at Christmas, Everyday. They say it gets easier.. with time.. It doesn't and whilst I've had a few Christmas's without you Grandad, Itll be my first without you both, Hopefully Ryan has found his way, to you, back in your arms x Forever 27, My brother 🤍

We are remembering my Grandad. An amazing trombone player in his day as well as a terrifically talented joiner. My Grandad was like a built in best friend. So funny, his smile and laugh just lit up the entire room. And I would always feel safe and secure whenever he was near, he just had a calming presence. He always reassured you that you would be fine and give you a big squeeze and you would instantly feel better. My grandad was so determined, this showed when he had a stroke when I was younger and he had to learn how to read, write and speak again and he did. He passed away two years ago now from falling on a rainy day and after all he had achieved recovering from those traumas, it left such a hole in our lives for him to be suddenly taken when he was so healthy. Our lives are definitely different without him as he was such a light and a joy. Everyone who met him says the same, he was just a force of nature. The best husband, father and grandad in the world.
We are also remembering my Granny (Grandad’s wife) unfortunately she passed when I was a baby so I didn’t get much time with her, which really upsets me but when I hear all the wonderful and also funny stories about her I truly feel like I know her so well. She was so kind, so creative, also a force of nature. She was very determined, she ran a restaurant whilst taking care of her family and just had so many feathers to her cap! She had an eye for detail. I wish I could have spent years on end with her, going around antique shops which she so dearly loved. She was a treasured wife, mother and Granny.
We are also remembering my Auntie Bridget. When my granny passed away Auntie Bridget sort of took on the role of Granny duties. And to this day , I can say she truly shaped who I am. She was so kind, so delicate, always fair. Auntie Bridget loved church and keeping her rosary beads close to her (which is something I like to do now because of her), everything in her home was perfect and beautiful. Some of the best memories of my childhood are school holidays at my Auntie Bridget’s. And walking through her front door and getting a whiff of her homemade chicken soup that she was cooking. Everyone who knew her, held a special place in their hearts for Auntie Bridget and that’s a fact. We miss her everyday.

And finally we are remembering my Granny Flynn (Auntie Bridget’s sister and my Mums Granny) she too passed when I was baby so I don’t have any memories with her and I so wish I did because of the stories I hear she was such a kind and wonderful person to know. I have one picture of her holding me when I was just born, I’m asleep in her lap and she is looking down at me just like an angel and she is so very gently holding my tiny hand with the tips of her fingers, the picture is so beautiful and special because although I never knew her that picture shows how much she loved me and how many memories we would have made together , the memories would have been wonderful. My mum describes her as so elegant and very much “a lady” and she was a huge part of my mum’s growing up, almost everyday they would see her, she was like a “second mum”. It just shows how treasured she was.

Dearly loved, never forgotten, sadly passed away in 2014.
Resting in a place with her Mum and Dad and her sister, Joanne.
Bless you all.

To a beloved husband and father, Merry Christmas Peter, love you.

Our first Christmas without you mum, my heart is broken, miss you so mum. ♥️ xx

Shine bright, we love you all so so much and I am sure one day we will meet again!

Daniel, Not having you with us all to celebrate Christmas is not something we will ever get use to. This year our first without you will be so hard however Ethan, Harper and I will try to smile and fill it full of laughter like you would have done. Your sense of humour is what got us all through the hardest of times. We will all use this same outlook on life at Christmas to make it as special as it can be. You will be in our thoughts and in all that we do xx You are so missed, yet still loved so much xx

St Barnabes allowed us all as a family to have that quality time. The children were able to spend time with their Dad in a comfortable and safe setting. The staff went above and beyond for us all and embraced Dans wicked sense of humour. They made him feel safe and cared for him with such compassion and dignity. We were all looked after nothing was ever too much trouble. The most important thing they did was allowed us to have some extra time and memories.

Having a light shine in honour of Dan warms our hearts and gives us some comfort.

It was never goodbye but see you soon
Every day is a Dan day
Forever loved

Always Vicky, Ethan and Harper xx

Every

Knowing we can give back to them in this way helps us all feel we are doing something when a Thank you just isn’t enough for our gratitude.

The first Christmas without you!. We have a big Stuart (Dad) shaped hole in our lives that cannot be filled. We miss you so much, love Phil, Ryan and Jack xx

Dad, second Christmas without you. I miss you every minute of every day and still can't believe you are gone.
My heart aches for you and always will. I hope you are now resting, finally pain free! Taken far to young at 63. I promise to keep your memory alive and live the life that you couldn't. All my love forever and always. Your girl, your proud daughter, Charley xxx

Gill, the most caring mother, wife, nanna and friend. Your love and encouragement shown to all of us are our strength and encouragement to do the very best for you, "Do it for nanna", as you say. We all miss you so much. We love you for ever.
Kevin, Claire, Stuart, Jess, Rosie, Jayden Jacob, Heidi and Brett

I will always remember our Christmas just the 3 of us in the Cayman Islands and you falling off the boat at Stingray City

Gone, but never forgotten!
Our first Christmas without you.
We Miss You & Love You

Hello Dad
We have many Memories. We can share. At Christmas.. we knew you were with us every day. We all are sending our love to you today. ❤️

Carole is in our hearts and with us every day but Christmas was her favourite time of year, she loved being in the heart of the kitchen laughing and joking with everyone.
Miss you big sis xx

Love and Hugs at Christmas xx

Christmas has never been the same since losing you all. You are missed so very much. X

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.

My wonderful much loved Mum. Forever in our thoughts, hearts and minds!

Christmas won't be the same without hearing your lovely voice.
My beautiful mum shines bright now and always, loved and missed so very much xxx

An amazing Uncle, Husband, Father, Brother, Grandad, Son and more! I will never forget all the times he made laugh and the unique sense of humour he had. Forever missed and forever loved.

You were my best friend and I will miss you forever and love you always-until we meet again

Both lost to cancer and missed every day, but especially at Christmas
