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.
Our first Christmas without your nanny and your first Christmas up there with grandad. Love you both x
Dad, you are so missed. I hope you are looking down from heaven upon all of us and are aware of how much we all love and miss you. I am so thankful for your influence. I owe so so much to you and mum.
Love Always
Adam xx
Emma is our daughter, born 14 June 1988, who stayed with us for just one day. We have taken part in the Light a Light procession every year since, this is her part of Christmas.
Tilly is our first grandchild, born March 2020, whom we have not been able to meet and cuddle yet due to the COVID Pandemic and travel restrictions across the World. Instead of being able to show her the Christmas Tree in person, to have her own light shining on it is the next best thing.
All way's with us in our hearts.
Never to be forgotten.
Our love goes on for you all.
My 3 Angels in Heaven ❤️ Forever Missed

Mum lived all her life in Nettleham and did flower sales in support of St Barnabas. She passed away at the hospice in January 2022. She lived Christmas and her family and is sorely missed.
Jeff was a family man in every sense of the word. He loved us all unconditionally. Jeff loved Christmas and every year would fill the house with all things festive. He is missed so much at this time of the year. Xx
A dear friend and employer.
Fond memories of 7 years as your carer.

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
Our first Christmas without you both, we are so lucky to have so many happy memories to cherish. All our love, always.
Always in my heart xx
