Today would have been her 48th Birthday so I am lighting a candle for her memory, St Barnabas were amazing in caring for her at the end and we are forever grateful xx

This will be my first Christmas without you mum. Dad it will be the 11th. I promise to carry on your traditions for your grandchildren and I will always remember books don't count. Love to you both always and forever Mandy and Sally xxx

Remembering Paul, our dearly loved husband and father. Not just at Christmas but always.

MISS YOUR COMPANY AT COUNTRY CLUB IT'S NOT THE SAME WITH OUT YOU

Always thinking of you both

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.

To Phil a much loved & missed husband, Dad & Grandad
Love from us all xx

It breaks my heart having a Christmas without you here Nanna. But you will forever be in our hearts. You have given me wonderful warm Christmas memories which I will cherish forever, and I will be smiling while I think of them this Christmas. Love you lots Nanna xxx

The love of my life, we shared 48years together, raised our son & daughter, Chris & Laura, They were incredibly lucky that I fell in love with a wonderful girl. She was an amazing lady and we were all devastated to lose her. God bless you my darling. xx

I’ll be lighting up a life again for my Pops.. this is a special occasion and so moving.. We like to think he’s shining bright on top of the Christmas tree and like to visit throughout the festive period. St Barnabas means a lot to us they give amazing care as the most difficult times not only to their patients but families too.. I’ll also be dedicating lights to my Mama, Grangrad & Ella.. FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS ♥️???????? xx

To mum

All my love Martin xxx

He was my world

A strength I'm still learning from. One I should have realised earlier than I did. Love you mum.

Missing dad this Christmas

The team at St Barnabas looked after my uncle with such care and dignity. I will never forget everything the truly amazing team at the inpatient unit does for everyone of their patients. They deserve the world. I'm so happy to carry a torch in my uncles memory, and to support such amazing people.

My mum said she didn't like Christmas much and its was a big fuss for one day. She loved shopping and buying gits for everyone though! She had a stash of presents from around April.

You will always be our shinning light, lighting up our sky at night
Forever in our hearts, we love you so, so shine bright for us to know
You are always with us xx

Miss my lovely Mummy so much this time of the year Christmas just isn't the same without you.
Love you Mummy ❤️
ALWAYS
