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.

Our first Christmas without you both, we are so lucky to have so many happy memories to cherish. All our love, always.

Remembering our amazing incredible mum/nannie today and everyday.

My best friend, my world, my inspiration; always with me in my heart and all that I do.

Our beautiful, guiding light, we miss and love you; our memories of times together carry us on..

Shine bright

Love always Caroline, Chris, Harry & Adam xxx

Love and miss you

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.

My fun loving Auntie and uncle that have been missed for so long but loved for longer! Xxx

My dad was my best friend, always smiling no matter what. At Christmas even when bedbound because of his cancer he would still be there with his raindeer antlers and flashing red nose.

Tim is missed so much, even though it has been nine years. His wit and banter on the golf course are much missed……..

For my dearest Auntie Bett. A year has passed and it seems like only yesterday. Those last weeks were made bearable by the love and care of the wonderful hospice. What I'd give just to have a hug again. I miss her more than words.
