It is 5 months since you left us Mum.
We miss you so much but hope you are now at peace.
Christmas will never be the same and we will think of you at this special time.
Lots of love from us all xxxxx
Our first Christmas without you both, we are so lucky to have so many happy memories to cherish. All our love, always.
Thanking you all from our hearts for looking after dad. ????????Jilli, Kev and family xxxx
The hospice at home team were amazing at supporting my father in law in his last weeks, and allowed the family to spend that time together at his home. His grandchildren would like his light to shine on the tree of life this Christmas, as he was such a big part of all family festivities and was the ‘real’ Santa to all who knew him.
forever in my thoughts and always in my heart especially at Christmas.
Love you Jan xx.
Miss you every day
Dad, I don't know how to make the stuffing like you and grandad did so dinner can never be the same. Thank you for the years you kept opening the kitchen door, always at the wrong time, and rolling your eyes at my obsessive list checking. No one else can take that place. I miss you.
May the Light of Christ shine on all who are bereaved and missing their loved ones this Christmas.
Beloved parents and Grandparents, we especially miss you at this time of year, forever in our hearts. Xxx
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.
Miss you every day Mum x so happy you got to be my Mum xxxx
Our visits to see the Christmas lights on Regent Street will be one of my most special memories. I miss you dad xx
Thanks for sharing 60 wonderful years.
Mum loved Christmas, the tree, the lights, the food, the presents and the time spent with family. Her tree was always up as early as she thought she could get away with, even if she was coming to spend Christmas with us and wouldn't really be there to see it! On Christmas day she was the biggest kid of all and we would wrap up any amount of random things just because she loved to open presents, however daft they may be. Christmas is not the same without her.
Missing you both every single day. Hope you’re watching ❤️ always loved never forgotten forever missed xxx
Loved & missed everyday, Keep shining bright our clarkey xxxx
The missing parts of my family will always be in my heart and with me wherever I go.
To a beloved husband and father, Merry Christmas Peter, love you.
Loved and missed every day
