We all miss you so much, but will love you forever xxx

Remembering you Mum at Christmastime.

My husband passed away 5 years ago, he was cared for at home by your Skegness team of st barnabas nurses , they were so special x

Always in my heart.

In memory of my dearest mum. She was loved by everyone that knew her. She had many friends and no enemies. She was 101 yrs when she died. I miss her so much, love you mum xxx

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.

I miss you each and every day but take comfort in the knowledge that your light will always shine brightly in my life.

Lots of love as always

I have so missed you, since loosing you in August. You loved Christmas and all the decorations. Love you mum xx

Keith; I love you now, I love you always. Thank you for loving me! My heart is broken, but I'm so thankful to have known you. You are missed every single day. All my love, Victoria xxx

In loving memory of our Mum who loved Christmas, our first Christmas without you. Love you – 'all is calm, all is bright, sleep in heavenly peace' xxxx

Keep shining bright for us you are forever missed, more than ever at Christmas time xxx

Not a day goes by that we don’t think of you, but Christmas brings your memory even closer. We can almost see you with a glass of red in hand, laughter lighting up the room just like you always did. You filled our lives with warmth, kindness, and joy — and that light still shines in our hearts. Cheers to you, always.

With love, from Mum and me x

Mum,

Forever loved, forever missed xxx

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.

Our visits to see the Christmas lights on Regent Street will be one of my most special memories. I miss you dad xx

I’ll be lighting up a life again for my Pops.. this is a special occasion and so moving.. We like to think he’s shining bright on top of the Christmas tree and like to visit throughout the festive period. St Barnabas means a lot to us they give amazing care as the most difficult times not only to their patients but families too.. I’ll also be dedicating lights to my Mama, Grangrad & Ella.. FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS ♥️???????? 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.

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 Dad, It’ll be my first without you both, Hopefully Ryan has found his way, to you, back in your arms. Forever 27, My Son I love you always❤️
