Special thoughts of our dear daughter and sister Celina. Missed more than words can say. You are in our hearts forever. Love Mum, Sharon and family.
Thank you for taking Pauline into your care during her dying days.
Life had been so difficult and it was so pleasing to see you take care at such a difficult time
Thinking of you this Christmas, with your red jumper and white beard, always our very own Santa. Miss you xxx
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.
Dad/Pop and Mother,
Remembering many happy times especially at Christmas.
Forever in our hearts.
Love you always,
Ann and Phillip
For my Mum who I miss x
I miss you both each and every day. Look after each other and look out for Jeff xx
Phil was the light in my life! My soul mate, best friend and much more! Phil was always willing to help anyone and is sadly missed by so many. Over the years with me he helped to raise thousands of pounds for many charities! He always found good in people and always had a welcoming smile for every one, a perfect welcoming host. Phil never had a bad word for anyone!
Thinkink of you all, even more so at Christmas time. You are dearly missed and never forgotten! All our love xxxxx
Missing you this Xmas
As we look up to the stars
And see the brightest one
We know it’s where you are looking down on us xx
Barrie used to pretend he wasn't bothered about Christmas but deep down I know he did, being close to family and all the grandchildren is what made him the happiest, miss him and his silly ways so much and always will.
Love, like starlight, never dies xxxx Love you always, Mum
Loved and missed forever Xx
My Grandma was the bravest and absolute best person in the world. Gave the best cuddles and advice and I hope I am making her proud every day.
