Chris loved Christmas and the joy it brings to families and individuals alike. Her birthday was on the 21st December and our daughters wedding anniversary on the 22nd, so a very happy time with lots to celebrate. Chris was a Christian and had faith that Jesus would help her through the difficult times, which I am sure he did. Our Christmas festivities started by attending the carol service at the Cathedral and then getting ready for the big day with our daughter and her family. She took so much pleasure in giving and seeing the joy that it brought to others – that is what I remember about her at this time of year.
We always remember when Mum miss judged her chair and ended up in the Christmas Tree, that hold your breath moment where you wait to see if they are hurt or laughing, and luckily it was laughing especially when she realised a bauble landed in the gravy boat.

Mum, Dad and Debs, loved and missed at Christmas and always XXXX
My beautiful mum, my best friend, the best grandma to my babies, the most selfless and brave person I've ever known.
Our first Christmas without you. Not a day goes by without thinking about you, talking about you and Christmas will be no different. I miss you so, so much.
We love you to the moon and back.
In memory of Alison, who's presence lit up many lives , and her caring nature is so sadly missed.
Christmas was always a special time between my Dad and I. Always big on traditions, we would go pick out a tree together, decorate it and the house whilst listening to Christmas music and eating mince pies!
This year marks 5 years since he passed away, and I have struggled to uphold these traditions the past 5 years, but I finally feel like I will be able to get back to them this year with the fond memories of Christmases past and smile knowing he would be happy that I can get back to enjoying a holiday that I have always loved.
Merry Christmas Dad. I love and miss you everyday. I hope that I do you proud with my Christmas tree choice!! 🙂 xxxx
My wife passed away over four years ago. She had dementia and later cancer. She is with me every day and missed by so many. She was looked after in her final seven weeks at home with help from St Barnabas.
Maurice stayed with you in the hospice at the end of his life and we are grateful for the care you gave. Maurice is always in our memories and much missed especially by his daughter's Juliet and Lauren xx
Lyn and I didn't meet until our mid-40s and it turned out we had less than 8 years together, 4 of which were in the shadow of cancer until she passed away in November 2016. But in those 8 years she made me the happiest man in the world. We were married in 2011, just over a year before her diagnosis after which we still made the most of the time we had remaining. She never complained, never sought pity and a lot of people didn't even realise her situation until the last months when she had to give up work. The St Barnabus Hospice At Home team were the greatest source of help and support in that final period, and the day centre were too before and, for me, after that. I'll never be able to thank them enough.
Hoping you’re watching all our adventures from on high.
We love you and miss you
Love you always xxxx

Dad,
In my heart everyday. Thank you for making me the person I am today. You are forever in all our hearts and forefront of our minds.
Lots of love from all the family.
Dad, you passed away 18th Oct 2020, you were our hero and the strength and backbone of our family.
Mum, you passed away 20th Dec 2020, you were always there for us when we needed to talk. We are all so shocked but understand that you didn’t want to be separated from dad after being together for 58 years.
We are devastated and in so much pain right now from losing you both, the only bit of comfort we have is knowing that you are back together, side by side where you belong. Please don’t worry about us, in time we will be ok and we will look out for one another like you’ll want us to do.
We will never forget you and everything you did for us, you will be missed so much and our lives from now on will never be the same.
Take care of one another mum and dad, we’ll see you again one day, sleep tight,
Your loving daughters,
Michele, Simone and Rosalind
