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

Thoughts to all your family this first Christmas without your special aura and presence. As always, special memories of your wicked sense of humour and misheavous smile.xx

Dear Mum and Dad,

It's hard to believe it's that time again already! Thinking of you and missing you every day.

Love,

John

Rembering my family coming on Boxing Day every year and my Grandad falling asleep after lunch!

My heart is still so broken each day I miss you my Butchie. You didn’t deserve what happened to you, but you took it all that was thrown at you with such grace never complaining. I would walk a million miles to see your face one more time or to talk and laugh with you. You will always be in my heart till we meet again. Love Maggie xxxxx

In memory of our lovely mum Helen, who loved Christmas. Your light still shines in our hearts always. xx

Christmas was Mum’s favourite time of year, when she was more excited than even the grandchildren! Having lost Mum earlier this year, Christmas is going to be a really difficult time where her absence is felt so greatly. We love and miss you so much Mum.

A magical person who was a shiny light to all he met, especially our family, amazing dad, hubby we love you always.

The most incredible man, who we all love and miss dearly. Thinking of all our special memories and wishing him a heavenly Merry Christmas. Sending love from us all and a special kiss from his Great-Granddaughter Lilia ❤️

Our first Christmas without Mum (who died 28 July 2020), and the 15th without Dad (29 November 2006). Forever in our hearts.

Barrie used to pretend he wasn't bothered about Christmas but deep down I know he did, being close to family and all the grandchildren is what made him the happiest, miss him and his silly ways so much and always will.

Missing you both everyday especially at Christmas sending love and hugs as always.
Love from Sandra xxx

All were amazing beautiful people with the kindest hearts.

In loving memory of Dad our 1st Christmas without him. xxx

In my heart always x
