December is a time that brings back memories of family Christmases when we were young with Mum and Dad making it all so special. Now as an adult with my own kids, we miss having them over to us to celebrate. There is too much space around the dinner table without them.
Missed every single day
Love from Lily
Always thinking of you both, forever in our hearts xxx
My favourite Christmas memory was when Kev was unexpectedly discharged from hospital just in time to spend Christmas with his family. We weren't to know that it would be the last Christmas we would share together. The best present we could ever have wished for.
Christmas, more than ever, I miss my Dad's central role within our family festivities. I miss him so much.

You were the love of my life and I think of you and miss you constantly. Our first Christmas without you will be hard but we will remember the good times we had together (and there were so many good times.) Our memories of you live on in all of us. Sleep tight my love.

My message to Jim:
Though I miss you everyday,
We will never truly part.
For part of you lives on with me,
Forever in my heart.
Clive, our dearly loved husband, dad and grandad. We have so many happy memories of our Christmases together and you will be in our thoughts and our hearts at Christmas as you are every day.
Remembering Ben as we approach his first wedding anniversary and our first Christmas without him. We miss hearing his laughter and his positive approach to life. I feel so incredibly blessed to have so many special shared family memories.
We had the best Christmases ever growing up. We miss you.
We losted Grandma Maxwell in 1989 but we still miss her.

To a loving Husband, Brother, Father and Grandfather – We miss you every day xxxx
My brother was 30minutes old when I first saw him and 67 when I last saw him he left us suddenly in May this year. I loved him from the moment I first saw him ,he was my constant companion throughout our childhood our Christmases were full of fun we did not have much and that didn’t matter ,we always remembered having to put the oranges from our Christmas stockings back on the fruit bowl and never let our Mother forget it how we laughed .God bless bro xx
An amazing Uncle, Husband, Father, Brother, Grandad, Son and more! I will never forget all the times he made laugh and the unique sense of humour he had. Forever missed and forever loved.
Dave – still miss you lots, lots of love Sue
Missed Mum more this year than ever before. I became a Granny and would so loved her to have met baby Martha Melly.
Christmas was always Melvyns favourite time of year so it’s a special time for us as a family. After nearly 19 years we still miss and love you.
We all love you and miss you so very much today, tomorrow, forever and always xxxxxx
In memory of my sister Chrissy and loving husband Chris x x x x
Dad was always so positive & proud of his family. We have a strong bond that death will not part us.
Night dad see you in the morning xx
I miss you playing little jingles to wake us up on Christmas morning. I miss the smile on your face and excitement in yours eyes when you present us with Christmas stockings – that you STILL did for us all even as adults each year. I miss the strange/odd gifts you used to buy me that you thought I’d love! I miss seeing you dancing and singing to ‘rocking around the Christmas tree’ (usually in something red!) in the kitchen while we prepped and cooked Christmas dinner together… and so much more besides.
I regret that you never saw me happy with Russ who I met the year after you passed and I am saddened that you never got to hold your Grandchild Oakley. But you live on in all of us and Russ tells me he feels like he knows you as I speak of you so often and Oakley will feel the same in time I’m sure it – he already has a lot of love for ‘Nanny Bear’ who he kisses and cuddles often. I tell him he has to be a good boy as Nanny is always watching and checking in on him!
We miss you Mum, our sun moon and stars xxxxxx
