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.
He was one of a kind, biggest heart I’ve ever known, he was an amazing daddy in the short life he had with his daughter and amazing stepdad to Freddie.
He’s my world and he made me believe anything is possible with him beside me. He was so strong loyal and my bestest friend I couldn’t be any more prouder of him. My life become perfect with him beside me. Love you forever sherwood,
Love you too daddy and monkey xxxxx

My Dad loved Christmas! He loved the parties and the presents; he always watched everyone else open theirs and kept his in a pile next to him to savour. He was an incredibly generous man and always made sure everyone who knew him had a treat at Christmas time. This will be our sixth without him; we all miss him very much.
Hi dad, we are all missing you so very much. We talk about you often and remember all the memories you gave us. We look to the night sky and find your star. It twinkles down on us all and says, " Don't worry, I'm always by your side, be strong, and remember yo live life, until we can be together again.
Love you.
Thank you to the St Barnabas nurses from Bourne who looked after my mother with palliative care at the end of her life. ❤️
