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.
The most loving and beautiful parents anyone could wish for. Holding you in our hearts forever ❤️
My mum was a very special lady who lived her last months with the same peace and humour which had accompanied her throughout her life. I miss her every day and I know Christmas will be a little less merry without her, but I am lucky to have many very happy memories which keep her with me always.
To my Dad for being a rock to me and supporting me at my lowest. My fondest memory was spending time watching our favourite team Oldham Athletic home and away through the years. I love and miss you Dad xx
TO GRANDMA,
WE MISS YOU SO MUCH, NOTHING IS THE SAME WITHOUT YOU, WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHINGTHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR US.
LOTS OF LOVE,
OLIVIA AND ELLIE XXX
Dad was cared for by St Barnabas inpatient unit for just over 3 weeks this year and they did a fabulous job to make dad comfortable and pain free as per his wishes. Also doing all they could to involve us during the pandemic. Dad lived in Lincoln all his life and memories with him will always be in our heart. Lighting a light for him will light up the memories we have of him, especially being the first Christmas period without him.
Always on my mind, forever in my heart

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.
