My dearest love. You are missed and thought of every single day.

Wishing my Mum and Dad – Pauline and Tom – our niece Emma, Uncle Brian and my Father in Law George a Happy Heavenly Christmas. We miss you all so very much.
Shine Brightly, God Bless

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.

Miss you more than words can say. We love you and should have told you more x

When you left us, you did the most amazing thing. You gave life and sight to others. You were always so kind and thoughtful and this was reflected in your gift, even after you had gone. I hope the recipients are happy, healthy and are loved. Perhaps one day we will hear from them but until then, know that we are proud to call you our mum. Love you my mummy x

You were all taken far too early and I miss you all every day. Always in my thoughts.

David was a wonderful and much loved husband, father and grandfather. A man who loved his family especially at Christmas so we will raise a glass of malt whisky to him and always remember good times. Love you always xxxx

Always thinking of you both

I miss my beautiful daughter Lesley everyday, and always donate to Light up a Light and raise funds by holding a coffee morning. Lesley always enjoyed her weekly trips to St. Barnabas to socialise with other people in a similar position to herself. Her last few days were spent in St. Barnabas where she had tender loving care. My only child she left met the best legacy of all – a wonderful grandaughter and grandson. I now have 4 great grandchildren and I know Lesley would be so proud of them all. xxxxx

Maurice stayed with you in the hospice at the end of his life and we are grateful for the care you gave. Maurice is always in our memories and much missed especially by his daughter's Juliet and Lauren xx

Merry Christmas Mum, I can’t believe its nearly been 3 years already, I miss you everyday, you’ll always be the brightest star in the sky, Love you forever❤️❤️

Hope you both are together, where ever you are ❤️

Merry Christmas Mum. Sending you a big hug wherever you are! Love you always x

Missing my family and dear friends every day and especially at Christmas time.

I miss you so much. I will think of you when I am in Australia at Christmas, just as you had told me I had to go. Wish you could be with me. Love you forever.Andy x

Thanks for always being there Dad, Lots of love xxx

Mum, Christmas won't be the same without you, but I promise there will be laughter amongst the tears. You gave us all so many magical, joyful Christmas memories (and delicious food!). That magic will never fade.

You spent your life helping others, and now I know first hand just how invaluable St. Barnabas nurses like you are.

To all of you at St. Barnabas, you are angels on earth.

Missed every single day
Love from Lily

He was our Bill, he loved looking after us and was the most generous and kind man. Wonderful husband, dad and grandad. Who loved Disney world the most.

Remembering you both this Christmas. Xxx

Much love x
