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.

My beautiful mum, miss you so very much, loves you always, loves you more xx

Merry Christmas Pops
We love you and miss you every day.
All our love,
Jude, Rob, Jenny, Stella, Karen, Mark, Ash, Albert, Elsie and Max xxxx

Christmas is a really difficult time of year for me. It really is a time for family and with you both gone, it is just not the same.
I love and miss you both so much.

Thinking of you this Christmas Mum. Xxxx

Shine bright Dad, you are loved and missed every day. Never forgotten ❤️

I have so many memories of my wonderful Grandad, but one of my absolute favourites was when I took him to the hospital for an appointment earlier this year. When we got there I got to wheel him around in a wheelchair which he found absolutely hilarious as I was so scared of pushing him into a wall or a door frame! He even joked as we were leaving about me passing my wheelchair pushing license – making a joke about me not passing my driving test yet! But this is one of my favourite memories because it was the first time I had seen my Grandad genuinely smile for a very long time.

My Grandma was the bravest and absolute best person in the world. Gave the best cuddles and advice and I hope I am making her proud every day.

Thinkink of you all, even more so at Christmas time. You are dearly missed and never forgotten! All our love xxxxx

My Beautiful Hannah, I Miss You so Much. I Love You to the Moon and Back my Little Mole Pie xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My husband and I remember our much loved parents with great love always and especially at Christmas. This year we have lost 2 special people from our extended families, whose loss has been hard especially more poignant in these extraordinary times, but still missing from our lives.
My husband and I and a close friend always take part in the light a light with love and respect for everyone’s loved ones and will do so this year albeit virtually ❤️

Second Christmas without you, happy memories live on though. Remembering you this year in a very special way as myself and family lead the Torchlight Procession

Dad was cared for by St Barnabas inpatient unit for just over 3 weeks this year and they did a fabulous job to make dad comfortable and pain free as per his wishes. Also doing all they could to involve us during the pandemic. Dad lived in Lincoln all his life and memories with him will always be in our heart. Lighting a light for him will light up the memories we have of him, especially being the first Christmas period without him.

Anita was one of the kindest of people, always helping others

I didn’t get the opportunity to hold my daughter, she was taken too soon. I’ve never stopped loving you and it will be your 21st birthday this December so I would like to take this moment to wish you the best 21st birthday ever my darling daughter love mummy xxx

We were forever. We still are. We always will be.
My world is empty but I keep going because my eternity will always be you.
