"and if I listen to my heart, I'll hear your laughter once more" quote from "Goodbye" by Kenny Rogers
To my amazing and much loved mum who passed away on 7 November 2022. You were the strongest woman I have ever known and I feel so proud that I was your daughter.

Always in our hearts, forever in our thoughts.xxxx

My heart is broken Mum. I miss you so much and cannot imagine a future without you in it. You are so precious and the pivotal point of our family. It’s not fair that you had to go so soon.
We love you so much.
Your forever loving daughter,
Michelle xxxxx

To my own beautiful Guardian Angel
My Mum
Always in my thoughts
Always in my dreams
Always MISSED

So blessed to have known each and every one of them.

My mum was a loving mother, mother in law and nana who is missed so much. My mum dedicated her life caring for us all and for others as she worked caring for the sick and elderly. St Barnabas hospice looked after her in her last few days which was greatly appreciated by us all. Please keep up the great work you do everyday. Love to you all this Christmas time xxx

Always in our thoughts xx

Miss you so much Dad, but have great memories of our Friday night pints & laughs.
Lots of love

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.

Sylvia lived for Christmas! She loved the lights, singing and being with her family. To be able to look at the tree she admired every year and know she is a part of it means the world to us.

We love you mum even though you are not with us in person you are always with us in spirit. Love you, good night and God bless xxx

In loving memory of Kerry, beloved daughter and sister.
In loving memory of Ian, husband and Dad.
Forever loved, forever missed.

Lovely kind gentleman. He worked so hard for his family all his life and is greatly missed by us all.

Peace to All

Always in our hearts.

My Dad loved a traditional extended family christmas day lunch. He always laid the table and did most of the washing up whilst myself and 2 sisters went for a walk with relatives.

Our first Christmas without you.
Forever loved & missed
Love from Kelly xxx

Missed so much on our first Christmas without you x

Happy Christmas Dad – our first one without you. I'll be sure to have a few pints on your behalf!

We had the most amazing mum and dad who taught us how to live well and how to love. It has been hard learning to live without them them but we carry them in our hearts and they walk alongside us still.

With love and gratitude to mum and dad and to all who care and support those at the end of their lives; Pam, Phil and Gill xx

No star shines brighter in the sky that you Nan I miss you so much. Xx
