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

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.

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

David was a much loved husband, father and grandad. He loved Christmas so is always especially missed at this time. Santa usually brought him a bottle of malt whisky so glasses will be raised in David's memory this Christmas.

Your light is shining forever

Dad we miss you more than words can say, we remember you every single day.
This is our first Christmas without you and we know you loved a 'bit of a do'.
On Christmas day we will raise a glass for you and remember all the good times we had. Love you xxx

Always in our Hearts.

We miss you so much Dad and life just isn’t the same without you in it! We think about you with love every day xxx
