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.

Remembering my lovely Dad, a very special man who is missed every day but especially at this time of year.

Miss you every day Mum but especially at Christmas. Lots of love always, Kate & Mick xx

Another year without you but you are remembered every day and truly missed xx

Remembering a much loved Husband, Father, Grandfather, Father in law, and a friend to many this Christmas, our first without him. ????

Always on my mind, forever in my heart

You may be gone but never forgotten love you both forever

To my beautiful Mum
Miss you always. Love you forever.
Our chain is broken until we reunite again.

Adam loved Christmas, but it is not the same now without you here. You are missed and loved so much.

We spent every minute of every day together and Yvonne passed away 5 days before our silver wedding 5 years ago. She’s still with me every day. I cared for her at home for the last seven weeks with the help of St Barnabas.

Tony, I miss you every day. My life is now dedicated to your memory and the life we had together.

Dave you were my big brother and a wonderful uncle to the girls. You kept your sense of humour until the very end. Proud to say you were my brother.
Love you lots Sue x

Strength not measured just in years, but seen in kindness measured forever.

Always in our hearts, especially at Christmas xx

Merry Christmas to a much missed Mum, Nan & Great Nan. Xx

For my beautiful mum who loved a scone and a whiskey, though not necessarily at the same time 🙂

Dedicating a light to my dad who loved Christmas and made it so magical for us as children, and then for my children. Always look for the brightest star in the sky.

My Darling wife, taken too early, I will always love you. I am sure that you shine a light, wherever you are.????
