Jeannette Goodwin
From Miss Eden Laughton
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.

Richard + June Dickinson
From Mrs. Julie Hart
Mum joined dad last year. And we had mum on her own for 20 plus years. My sister and me spent loads of time with mum as did our kids. Her grandkids. We miss her so much but she is dancing with our dad again. She died in Lincoln hospital January 11 2019. we thought she was coming home but died in a comfy chair. She fell asleep and never woke up.I will never forget my sister calling me at 5.45 at work. I was shaking and went into the office and burst out crying saying my mums gone. I felt like the whole world had swallowed me up. How dare they take my mum from me. But she was ready to go to my dad. Big hugs. And lots of kisses from your daughters and grandchildren. You were the rock to our family. Will never forget you. Xxx
