My mum passed away from cancer in spring this year aged 70 years old. I miss her dearly and am still rather shocked she is not going to be here this Christmas. She was a fantastic dancer and used to be a go go dancer back in the 70s. As she got into her 60s she started doing ballroom dances and going to dances every weekend. She loved dressing up in fancy outfits (usually a charity shop bargain). My children will miss their little nanny this Christmas. And I will miss my mum. My son (age 3) thinks she's gone to the moon. ???? From there she can watch over us.

Christmas was Mum’s favourite time of year, when she was more excited than even the grandchildren! Having lost Mum earlier this year, Christmas is going to be a really difficult time where her absence is felt so greatly. We love and miss you so much Mum.

In my thoughts and always in my heart, love you Jan xx

Miss you mum, loved you always xx

Our dear mum was a beautiful lady who cared for everyone she ever met. She was kind, loving and funny. It was a privilege to have her as our mum. She was also the best Grandma in the World and we miss her every single day. We hope you’re having fun with dad again. Sweet dreams both of you.

Thank-you mum for making all of my Christmas Days so lovely. Nearly one year without you and things will never be the same but I will always do my best to make Christmas special. I've even made a cake this year! I love you, I know you are there, Happy Christmas xxx

My Dad is my hero and my best friend and I miss him so much, especially a round this time of year as he died at the end of November – so Christmas is not the same without you xx

Whilst Dad didn't use the hospice in his lifetime he had many relatives that did and he was a big supporter of St Barnabas being a local lad. After such a tough year he will be missed at Christmas and we think this is a lovely way to remember him.

We love and miss you so much Daddy. Xxxx

Another year has gone by without you.
You are always in our thoughts.
We hold our memories of you deep in our hearts forever.
All our Love
Wendy,Graham, Nicola, Ross,Matthew,Josh & Lily

Love you to the moon and back xx

This light is dedicated to my beloved husband Martin Lumb who passed in February this year. The hospice looked after my husband in his last few days and supported Martin and I through the palliative care stages . They are the most wonderful people and we couldn’t have done it without their support.
Martin passed with dignity and peace and that meant the world to his whole family.
Miss you every day my darling and will be thinking of you this Christmas as we spend time together as a family without you, you will be in all our hearts and thoughts. Will love you forever my darling .

Happy Christmas, grandma and grandad Sheard, we miss you every year. We raise a glass every year and hope that we are all doing you proud! lots of love

Missing you mum more than words can say, shine bright in the sky like the brightest star you are. Lots of love always Sue xx

Remembering with much love this Christmas

Mum lives with us in our hearts every day of the year and is loved and sadly missed ❤️❤️❤️

For my beautiful mum who loved a scone and a whiskey, though not necessarily at the same time 🙂

In Memory of my beautiful sister, she sadly lost her brave and courageous battle against cancer nearly 6 years ago. She loved Christmas with her Family.

To Kevin,

I’ve never met you, but want to say how wonderful your daughter is. There were times I didn’t think I would make it through the year, but she has saved me in more ways than she’ll ever know and I will be forever grateful.

You should be sooooo proud of her and I know she misses you so much.

Hopefully one day I’ll get to meet you and tell you how wonderful she is, how she has turned in to a beautifully funny and kind person, always thinking about others.

James

Allan a very good friend who will be always remembered

Always in our hearts

I miss you so much Grandad ????
I would give anything to have you back. Love you forever and always xxxx

Remembering Chris and John at this time of the year. So many lovely memories of our times together with Geoff and myself. You will both always be remembered – with all my love Gill

Wendy is a friend I’ll never forget. She made such an impact on my family’s life. We will never forget her. William was the most lovely young man. He brought a smile to everyone’s faces and will always have a special place in my heart.

She was one to remember for Christmas dinner’s and did the best one! Would alway’s stand talking to somebody for ages to make sure they were okay. Will be forever missed. x

Dearest David a year since you left us and I miss you more every day.
So very grateful to the staff at St Barnabas hospice for the wonderful care and love they gave you in your final weeks.
