Loved and remembered always xxx

The hospice at home team were amazing at supporting my father in law in his last weeks, and allowed the family to spend that time together at his home. His grandchildren would like his light to shine on the tree of life this Christmas, as he was such a big part of all family festivities and was the ‘real’ Santa to all who knew him.

Many treasured memories

My wonderful brother, my best friend from the day you were born.
Always in my heart Bro Love you Forever xx

Thinking of you as always.

Miss you

My favourite Christmas memory was when Kev was unexpectedly discharged from hospital just in time to spend Christmas with his family. We weren't to know that it would be the last Christmas we would share together. The best present we could ever have wished for.

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

Remembering our beautiful mum and nannie; our world, our inspiration, and my best friend; you are always, always with us is in all that we do and we keep you close in our hearts each and everyday.
Shine bright our beautiful guiding light xxx

Remembering happy times

Sis always loved Christmas….. every year the seasonal decorations, lights and ornaments would fill her house with Christmas spirit. And every year all the family would be blessed with the most amazingly thoughtful gifts; Anne had a wonderful way of looking into your soul and knowing exactly what to spoil you with. But best of all, she was just good fun to be around.

Christmas isn’t the same now you’re not here but we’ll raise a cosmo to you again this year, dear sis, and enjoy all the happy memories of Christmas’ past.

Wishing you were here with us at Christmas, we all miss you so much especially as we only said goodbye just before Christmas last year.
There will always be a place a the table and a toast in your honour.
Shine bright up there. Love you xx

So many special memories of mum Shirley Bilton dad Alf Bilton and dad Bill Taylor thank you for all the love and care you gave to us all xxx

Soo Gillespie, I will love and remember you always xxxxxxx

Hello, I have made a kind donation in memory of my amazing mum, Sarah and would love to share her story.

My mum was cared for by St Barnabas hospice, and stayed in the inpatient unit November-December 2024. At the age of 38 she had been diagnosed with a rare, incurable form of genetic lung cancer. Her short battle with cancer was terrible for us all to see, but the incredible care she received at your hospice meant the world to us.

One of the last memories we ever made with our mum was watching the torchlight procession together outside the unit. The staff assisted in bundling my mum up in blankets and fluffy socks and wheeled her outside to watch the light walk with her family and children. There were tears, smiles, laughter, kind words and hugs from those passing by. I am heartbroken yet honoured to be participating in the walk this year in honour of my mother.

On the 4th of December, the staff set up their conservatory to allow us to spend one last Christmas Day as a family. We laid presents under the beautiful tree, played music and ate a Christmas dinner and cakes brought in by family. My mum was able to watch her young boys and teenage girls open the presents she’d picked out for them earlier in the year, alongside being spoilt herself with lots and lots of bracelets, teddy bears and skincare! The nurses were constantly on hand to assist with pain management and ensuring my mum was comfortable throughout the day.

The staff gave it their all, from washing, brushing and drying mum’s hair to being there for a broken family in the worst moments of their life. They went above and beyond to allow us to make those last memories. The nurses constantly spoke to me and my siblings and ensured we were staying as strong as possible! Mandy stayed with us as my mum took her last breaths and I’m forever grateful that we had her support and guidance, and that she showed my mum complete compassion and gentle care right up until the end.

My mum was treated with respect and dignity until the moment she left your unit. She loved the yummy food, joking around with her nurses and watching the squirrels and birds from her window. It felt like home.

Thank you St Barnabas, we will always keep your charity close to our hearts. You have made a huge difference to our lives.

Much love x

Forever enjoying the view

Mum and Dad
Love and miss you every day xx
