Alec – thoroughgoing Lancastrian – actor, brilliant singer, lovely, lovely bloke.

Whilst Dad didn't use the hospice in his lifetime he had many relatives that did and he was a big supporter of St Barnabas being a local lad. After such a tough year he will be missed at Christmas and we think this is a lovely way to remember him.

Always in our hearts Never forgotten
Missed everyday Hope you celebrate together wherever you maybe
Love and Missed Always

Your birthday was 21/12 .. we were always allowed to decorate the Christmas tree after that special event .. almost thirty years after you've died ..still missed and loved…

My friend Brigitte is from Australia and visited Lincoln every two years when she came to England for a holiday she was very dear to me we met on holiday in Whitby in 1997 and wrote to each other sadly on my birthday this year she passed away aged 66 I’ve just found out from a family member. Brigitte thank you for many years of happiness and our strong friendship I will treasure it forever. God bless you my dear friend xx

For a loving Nanny, Mum and Wife. This will be our first Christmas without you, but you are not forgotten and will be in our hearts forever and allways.

We love you so much and will allways think of all the wonderful memories and hugs we shared ❤️

Dad loved Christmas! He was always so generous with his time and with his gifts. He liked to make a real fuss of people.

We remember him every day but especially at this time of year, and raise a glass or two. We all miss him very much xx

Merry Christmas to you in heaven although you cannot be with us and there is an empty space at the table our hearts are always full with memories of you.
Christmas time a time to remember and reminis of times gone by, happy memories and full hearts keep you near.

He is always in my heart.

At Christmas we celebrate JOY to the World – without Jesus we would have no hope

Very special woman. You used to say I was your favourite grandchild, and I was there at your last breath. Miss and love you always x

Miss you dad. Baxter enjoyed putting his ‘Grandad Craig’ angel on our Christmas tree this year. Love you always Becky xxx

We will be thinking of you as always this Christmas. It is the first Christmas that our family is back together in your old house, so it will bring back so many happy memories. You will both be missed, especially Grandad’s jokes and Grandma’s mince pies and trifle!

Lots of love,

Hannah, Lucy, Ian and Ruth xxx

Christmas was always such a lovely family time, full of fun and laughter and lots of food! This will be my first Christmas without my mum and dad and I know it will be difficult, but I take comfort in the many lovely past memories we have xx

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.

This is the 10th Christmas without you.
Another year too of you not playing Father Christmas for the playgroup.
All the family will be thinking of you. Xx

A wonderful caring Dad whose legacy of love and devotion still shines through and always will.

Kevin its our first Christmas without you but our hearts and thoughts will be filled with love for you, miss you x

Remembering you both with love
