Our first Christmas without Mum and it will feel very empty. Mum was always the life and soul of any gathering at Christmas and throughout the year and will be hugely missed. We will especially miss her delicious Christmas pudding! I’ll be raising a glass to Mum and hope she’ll be doing the same along with all her friends & family. Love always xxx

PAT, love you always. Thank you for your love. Miss you for ever sweetheart

In memory of my beautiful mum Denise Fenn
Forget me not as time goes by,
For you can find me in the sky.
Forget me not for we’re apart,
For you carry me within your heart.
Forget me not although I’m gone,
For my memory will always live on.
Instead, remember me in every special way,
Keep me close to your heart
We’ll meet again one day xxx
Loved & Missed every day … love you Mam xxxx

We never did much to celebrate at Christmas, treating it as any other day really. However, this will be first Christmas without you and I’m expecting it to be difficult, as it is was at the time of our anniversary and birthdays.
We shared so many special times.
Happy heavenly Christmas my darling ????????????

WE MISS YOU STEVE X LOVE ALWAYS XXX

My dear Dad who passed away due to Cancer on the 19th November 2020. How I wish you were still here Dad you will always be in my thoughts x

Always in our hearts.

Remembering you Mum at Christmastime.

Hello, I have made a kind donation in memory of my amazing mum, Sarah and would love to share her story.

My mum was cared for by St Barnabas hospice, and stayed in the inpatient unit November-December 2024. At the age of 38 she had been diagnosed with a rare, incurable form of genetic lung cancer. Her short battle with cancer was terrible for us all to see, but the incredible care she received at your hospice meant the world to us.

One of the last memories we ever made with our mum was watching the torchlight procession together outside the unit. The staff assisted in bundling my mum up in blankets and fluffy socks and wheeled her outside to watch the light walk with her family and children. There were tears, smiles, laughter, kind words and hugs from those passing by. I am heartbroken yet honoured to be participating in the walk this year in honour of my mother.

On the 4th of December, the staff set up their conservatory to allow us to spend one last Christmas Day as a family. We laid presents under the beautiful tree, played music and ate a Christmas dinner and cakes brought in by family. My mum was able to watch her young boys and teenage girls open the presents she’d picked out for them earlier in the year, alongside being spoilt herself with lots and lots of bracelets, teddy bears and skincare! The nurses were constantly on hand to assist with pain management and ensuring my mum was comfortable throughout the day.

The staff gave it their all, from washing, brushing and drying mum’s hair to being there for a broken family in the worst moments of their life. They went above and beyond to allow us to make those last memories. The nurses constantly spoke to me and my siblings and ensured we were staying as strong as possible! Mandy stayed with us as my mum took her last breaths and I’m forever grateful that we had her support and guidance, and that she showed my mum complete compassion and gentle care right up until the end.

My mum was treated with respect and dignity until the moment she left your unit. She loved the yummy food, joking around with her nurses and watching the squirrels and birds from her window. It felt like home.

Thank you St Barnabas, we will always keep your charity close to our hearts. You have made a huge difference to our lives.

My Dad was the best. He died too early 26 years ago. I still miss him loads.

Forever in my thoughts and always in my heart.

My favourite person, a best friend I miss more and more every day

Shine bright Dad, you are loved and missed every day. Never forgotten ❤️

In memory of our beautiful Mum who we miss every day. Xxx

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.
Love you always Carl xxx

Merry 1st Christmas our darling girl

Dad, you are so missed, especially now. Christmas was a time you always made so special and magical. Thank you for being the best Dad anyone could ask for, I’ll always be grateful for the years we had and for the memories you left behind. You & Mum gave me the best life I could’ve asked for, full of love and laughter. No words can ever describe how much you are loved and missed, every day. ❤️

In loving memory of Alison Margaret Breese
Loved and very much missed
Love you to the Moon and back xxx
