A Christmas memory that always makes my heart pang, as young children we would sing carols around the table whilst leaving a Sherry and mince pie for Father Christmas and a carrot for Rudolph. Miss you! Love from your little brother, Tom.

We miss you especially at Christmas time. With your bah humbug hat on. Eating the minces pies as they came out of the oven.

Think of you and miss you every day love from Mike. xxx

HOPE YOU HAVE FOUND ETERNAL PEACE WITH DAD
THANK YOU FOR MANY HAPPY MEMORIES

Dearest Mum,

I miss you more than words can say
I miss you every minute of every day
I struggle to cope and understand
And wish that you could hold my hand
And help me through this time of struggle
And give me a kiss and a cuddle.
I hope and pray that once again
You are reunited with your beloved Jim.
I will do my best to make you proud
And always say your name out loud.
I will remember your words of support and advice,
And loving memories will always be part of my life.
I love you now, forever and always.

Love you loads
Linda xx????????

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

A truly wonderful caring person, wife, mum and nanny. Sadly missed but not forgotten. Sleep well my Angel. Txx

I remember opening our Christmas stockings on your bed & all the effort you always made to make our Christmasses special. Having to try and stop you from spending too much but the presents always overflowing out from under the Christmas tree. Love & miss you, Txxx

Miss you every day. They say time heals but I wish I could talk to you just for a minute. It was so cruel the way you were taken so quickly nut St Barnabas and Marie Curie ensured you died with no pain. I can never thank them enough.

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.

Always loved and never forgotten.

Love Mum, Emma, Nic, Ruth, Dylan, Bethan, Max, Will and Garry.
