Thinking of members of my family who sadly are not here to share Christmas with us this year. Sorely missed.

There is not a day goes by that, I Don't think about you Diane.
I miss our days out together, and all the laughter we shared.
Forever in my heart.
Your ever loving sister Jacqui.xxxxxxxxxxx

With almost a year passing since you left us. Loved and thought of every single day. Miss you so much mum. Life just isn’t the same without you. Your forever heartbroken daughter Michelle, son in law Al and adoring grandchildren Rory and Lottie xxxxx

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.

You will always be remembered but Christmas will never be the same without. You loved Christmas and we will continue to keep it a happy, fun and a lovely family day! Miss you always ❤️

Always in our thoughts and much loved and missed by all of his family.

Remembering, my dear Mum & Dad and my brothers too…miss you all so much xxxx

I will always remember our Christmas just the 3 of us in the Cayman Islands and you falling off the boat at Stingray City

Always in our thoughts, we have so many memories to treasure forever in our hearts.
As the years go by we miss you more than words can say.
All our Love
Wendy, Graham, Nicola, Ross, Matthew, Josh & Lily

Always on my mind, forever in my heart

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.

A light dedication for our wonderful Mum who always shone the brightest at Christmas. She was the best Mum and Grandma who has started traditions that we will continue. We love and miss you to the moon , Donna, Lisa, Laura and families xxx

Mum and dad you are missed more than you can ever imagine, wish you was here for Luca-Lee first Christmas you would make it so magical, we will look for you in the stars and have pork pie for breakfast

The man who never grew up, filled our hearts with happiness and our lives with unforgettable memories.
A loving husband, Dad and Grandad.
Remembered each and every day.
Our love, always.

Daniel, Not having you with us all to celebrate Christmas is not something we will ever get use to. This year our first without you will be so hard however Ethan, Harper and I will try to smile and fill it full of laughter like you would have done. Your sense of humour is what got us all through the hardest of times. We will all use this same outlook on life at Christmas to make it as special as it can be. You will be in our thoughts and in all that we do xx You are so missed, yet still loved so much xx

St Barnabes allowed us all as a family to have that quality time. The children were able to spend time with their Dad in a comfortable and safe setting. The staff went above and beyond for us all and embraced Dans wicked sense of humour. They made him feel safe and cared for him with such compassion and dignity. We were all looked after nothing was ever too much trouble. The most important thing they did was allowed us to have some extra time and memories.

Having a light shine in honour of Dan warms our hearts and gives us some comfort.

It was never goodbye but see you soon
Every day is a Dan day
Forever loved

Always Vicky, Ethan and Harper xx

Every

Knowing we can give back to them in this way helps us all feel we are doing something when a Thank you just isn’t enough for our gratitude.

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

Forever in our hearts, we miss you so much!

Wendy is a friend I’ll never forget. She made such an impact on my family’s life. We will never forget her. William was the most lovely young man. He brought a smile to everyone’s faces and will always have a special place in my heart.

Grannie was an incredibly special person who meant the world to us and we miss her dearly x

Gill. Although you are not with us in person we see you and feel you every day in our hearts, and we have some of the best conversations. We still go everywhere together hand in hand and we always will. I hear you shout encouragement to the boys when they play football and I know they feel your support. We love you so much, Kevin, Claire Brett Rosie, Stuart Heidi Jayden Jacob & Jess xxxxxxxxx
