Dear Nan, you were the light of our lives and the heartbeat of our family. Losing you so suddenly has left a void that can never be filled. Our lives will never be the same without you, but I promise you will never be forgotten nor will the ones you lost in your life either. Your love and kindness will always be with us, guiding us through the darkest times. Here's a message you can use:

Christmas was always your favourite time of year, and we will honour you by keeping all of our traditions alive. We will make sure to celebrate in true style, just as you would have wanted. Your spirit will be with us every step of the way, and we’ll cherish those memories as we come together as a family xx

This is a sad and happy time of year for me; as I remember your passing in Oct 2014, but also a happy time in December as it was also your birthday and we started our celebration of Christmas by attending the Carole service in the Cathedral and then celebrated Christmas with all the family.

My Lovely Little Lady Hannah. I love you so much and miss you every day. Your love passion and care is unrivalled.

Love You To The Moon and Back xxxxxxx

Always in our thoughts xxx

Remembering my husband, Roger, and my two sons, Pete and Jamie who all loved Christmas. I miss them sooo much at this time of the year. Roger died in the loving and kind care of Lincoln St Barnabas Hospice.

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen,unheard, but always near, Still loved,still missed
and forever near.
Forever in my thoughts Dad xxx

St Bs were amazing looking after both my Dad and best friend through their valiant battles – this time of year they are especially missed and it’s so important we support the hospice and staff continue their vital work. Huge thanks to you all!

Dad, I don't know how to make the stuffing like you and grandad did so dinner can never be the same. Thank you for the years you kept opening the kitchen door, always at the wrong time, and rolling your eyes at my obsessive list checking. No one else can take that place. I miss you.

My guiding light ,shine as bright as you always did . Miss you and love you more x
