This will be the first year of my life that I will not be able to speak to you on Christmas Day. Always in my thoughts. Love you Mum xx

Not a day goes by that we don’t think of you, but Christmas brings your memory even closer. We can almost see you with a glass of red in hand, laughter lighting up the room just like you always did. You filled our lives with warmth, kindness, and joy — and that light still shines in our hearts. Cheers to you, always.

With love, from Mum and me x

Forever in our hearts, missing you all so much. It doesn’t get any easier as time goes by.

We’ll always remember you through our very own little Eva

Dad 18 months has past without you. As Christmas creeps up there is a empty feeling and it isn’t the same because you are gone. You are so missed every single say and so loved. You didn’t deserve to go. Until we meet again. I love you so much, shine bright xxxxxxx

Love, like starlight, never dies xxxx Love you always, Mum

Miss you every day Mum.
Christmas was your favourite time of year, because it brought your family together who meant everything to you.
Happy Christmas Mum, love you lots xxx

We are remembering my Grandad. An amazing trombone player in his day as well as a terrifically talented joiner. My Grandad was like a built in best friend. So funny, his smile and laugh just lit up the entire room. And I would always feel safe and secure whenever he was near, he just had a calming presence. He always reassured you that you would be fine and give you a big squeeze and you would instantly feel better. My grandad was so determined, this showed when he had a stroke when I was younger and he had to learn how to read, write and speak again and he did. He passed away two years ago now from falling on a rainy day and after all he had achieved recovering from those traumas, it left such a hole in our lives for him to be suddenly taken when he was so healthy. Our lives are definitely different without him as he was such a light and a joy. Everyone who met him says the same, he was just a force of nature. The best husband, father and grandad in the world.
We are also remembering my Granny (Grandad’s wife) unfortunately she passed when I was a baby so I didn’t get much time with her, which really upsets me but when I hear all the wonderful and also funny stories about her I truly feel like I know her so well. She was so kind, so creative, also a force of nature. She was very determined, she ran a restaurant whilst taking care of her family and just had so many feathers to her cap! She had an eye for detail. I wish I could have spent years on end with her, going around antique shops which she so dearly loved. She was a treasured wife, mother and Granny.
We are also remembering my Auntie Bridget. When my granny passed away Auntie Bridget sort of took on the role of Granny duties. And to this day , I can say she truly shaped who I am. She was so kind, so delicate, always fair. Auntie Bridget loved church and keeping her rosary beads close to her (which is something I like to do now because of her), everything in her home was perfect and beautiful. Some of the best memories of my childhood are school holidays at my Auntie Bridget’s. And walking through her front door and getting a whiff of her homemade chicken soup that she was cooking. Everyone who knew her, held a special place in their hearts for Auntie Bridget and that’s a fact. We miss her everyday.

And finally we are remembering my Granny Flynn (Auntie Bridget’s sister and my Mums Granny) she too passed when I was baby so I don’t have any memories with her and I so wish I did because of the stories I hear she was such a kind and wonderful person to know. I have one picture of her holding me when I was just born, I’m asleep in her lap and she is looking down at me just like an angel and she is so very gently holding my tiny hand with the tips of her fingers, the picture is so beautiful and special because although I never knew her that picture shows how much she loved me and how many memories we would have made together , the memories would have been wonderful. My mum describes her as so elegant and very much “a lady” and she was a huge part of my mum’s growing up, almost everyday they would see her, she was like a “second mum”. It just shows how treasured she was.

To my mumsy

Happy heavenly Christmas

I miss you more as each day goes by

Love you more xxx

Wonderful Husband, Father and Pappa x

Another Christmas without you both, it doesn’t get any easier, I wish that we could all be together again one last time. Miss you xx
