How we miss our lovely family Christmases. Those special years will not return when we were all together but with all the love inside our hearts you'll walk with us forever.
Dad now back in the arms of mum.
Shine brightly.
Love Sue, Eloise, Jack and Mylo. Xx

My father who art in heaven..
A prayer couldnt save you from what came,
Although now I whisper your name,
Every day and every night
It's a hug I need, and to hold you tight.
On Christmas day, I will set your place, and pour your drink, play your games, then shut my eyes to see your face.
Merry Xmas dad, your presence will always be felt. X

Our first Christmas apart I miss you so much
Rest peacefully

Always in my thoughts.
My mum my friend my angel.
Till we meet again.
I love and miss you.

Chris Watt – A second year without you Mum. Selfless to the end, you became an organ donor and continued to help others. Giving and caring in life and in death. We are proud to call you our mum and hope that you can watch over us. Miss you every single day. x

Mom, although this will be our first xmas apart we know your are now safe in Gods hands. Our memories of you at this time of year will make us all smile, and you are only ever a though and a prayer away from us all. We all miss you dearly, love you forever Mom.

For my wonderful Daddy. Gone but never forgotten. May your love shine bright and forever in my heart. I miss you terribly.
Love Linny x

Two ladies who were earth angels. So kind and beautiful with gentle souls. I loved Christmas with Hilary my sister, we would shake and rattle presents to try guess what they were. Always hoped dinner would finish in time for top of the pops, so we could dance. My mum Ivy always cooked a splendid dinner and never asked for anything for herself.
Both together again.. Until we meet again, merry christmas beautiful ones.
All my love
Eileen

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.

A beautiful inspirational daughter, a wonderful mother to my 2 grandchildren and Nana to my great grandchildren. Missed but remembered every single day xxxxx

Chris – Although 8 years ago, not a day goes by when I don’t think of my mum. Far more than when she was with us – a lesson to be shared – hug your mum tight if you are still lucky enough to have her. My mum passed away aged 63. We knew her wishes and we were honored to support her decision in the sharing of her organs. Two people’s lives were saved that day, many more improved and that is the little light at the end of dark path of sadness. She lives on, somewhere. Her gift made sure those people’s families got to celebrate another year with their loved one, and for that I am immensely proud of her. Best mum, kind to the core. X

We miss you every day . We would give anything to see you just once more and to hold your hand and tell you that We love you and to see you in you Humbug christmas hat.. haha!!
All our love forever Lorraine xx. Corrie, Tim & Alex. Xx. Gareth, Gemma, Ethan & Ava xx
