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.
The strongest, bravest, most whole-hearted little boy.
Your memory lives on through your mummy and daddy and everyone who loves you.
Merry Christmas our little angel, you're in our hearts everyday.
Missing you so much sleep tight x
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.
Missing you both very much and remembering all of the wonderful memories of been with you both.
Lots of Love Sylv, Lauren , Greg , Louise, Tilli, Indie and Ava
Happy Christmas Dad/Bryn, you’ll be with us all Christmas as always, and we’ll be looking out for the robins! All our love, always xxxxx

Presents on the sofa, chocolate before breakfast, letters from santa and the anticipation of opening the lounge door, chestnuts and stuffing, pudding when we are stuffed. Then walks to the park with the dogs in all our new clothes and buffet tea that we all wanted but didnt need, tuna and sweetcorn vol au vents and quiche, christmas cake love it or hate it, then tele snuggled together, new pyjamas 'father chistmas' and his happy blooming christmas
Vic darling this is our 2nd Christmas without you we love and miss you every day and you will be in our hearts forever ❤
Another Christmas without you both, yet not a day goes by that I don’t think of you. This time of year still doesn’t feel the same, but I reflect on every moment we got to share. The grief of your absence is strongest amidst the festive joy, yet it reminds me how fortunate I was to be so deeply loved.
Merry Christmas, Grandma & Grandad –
cheers to you with a Sherry or two!
I’ll light a candle in memory of you;
two loving hearts still guide me through.
All my love, forever and more –
I’ll see one day, waiting at Heaven’s door. ♥️
Miss you each and every day
Our visits to see the Christmas lights on Regent Street will be one of my most special memories. I miss you dad xx
Missing you every day beautiful girl❤️❤️❤️????????????????????????????????????
Always missed.
Simon always choose to have a great day. Since his death I choose JOY every day. JOY to The World
We will remember our nanna because she helped Joe build his lego carousel last Christmas, because she made Evie two aprons, and the one with castles on it is her favourite, and for all the pennies she gave Joe and Evie every year for the advent calendars she made for them. We will so miss our Nanna this Christmas but we will love you forever. Joe and Evie xxxx
A wonderful lady, with a warm smile and a wicked sense of humour. Only knew her for a short time but fond memories and a lasting respect and appreciation of her as a work colleague and friend.
Remembering our lovely Lizzie . Missed and loved by us all every day.
In memory of both of our mums and dads. We miss you every day. Love always. Forever in our hearts. Love Anne & John xxxx
Celebrating Christmas with you in my heart. I hope you know you are loved and missed every day of the year.
Love you always and forever xxx
