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.

The best Dad in the world. We miss you so much and th8nk of you every day.
Love you to the moon and back xxx

Love you always miss and think of you every day.

Fly, fly, little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light

Remembering my daughter Sandy, mother Judith and brother Jamie. Always forever in our hearts. Until we meet again.

During my daughter’s life we would often attend events to raise money for St Barnabas not thinking that one day at age 30 she would receive amazing care from the hospice nurses. We miss her everyday but especially at Christmas when we all get together.

Carole is in our hearts and with us every day but Christmas was her favourite time of year, she loved being in the heart of the kitchen laughing and joking with everyone.
Miss you big sis xx

Dad,

Thank you for everything your taught me and memories you created.

So glad you got to meet Zavier, I know your looking down protecting him.

The most gentle and generous man who I was lucky enough to live with. So many memories but I loved bringing your lunch to the fields when you were harvesting and sitting with you in the sunshine. We are looking after Gran for you and miss you everyday xx

Will be thinking of you tonight Dad, 10 years on and we think about you all the time especially at this time of year. We shall have a drink tonight in your memory and enjoy looking at your light shining brightly on the Christmas tree xx love you always Kelly, Stuart, Freya and Noah

Happy Christmas to you all we miss you so so much gone but never forgotten you are always in our thoughts and hearts xxxxxxxx

Merry Christmas Mum, I can’t believe its nearly been 3 years already, I miss you everyday, you’ll always be the brightest star in the sky, Love you forever❤️❤️

Dr. Shah was a light among us! I have such nice memories of her when she would come to the US to visit her daughter, my bestie, Bhaval. She had such a close, loving bond with her grandchildren. And she was always perfectly put-together, even just to do the school pick-up. She will be deeply missed by all.

These four ladies are all very special and are still much loved and will always be missed remembered for their humour, kindness and unending hugs and love.

First Christmas without you dad x
You are missed every day and life will never be the same.
Thinking of you always
Love Ali, Ads & Chris
