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.
Nan was a wonderful lady who always enjoyed herself. Miss you lots Nan, wish you was here to see the girls growing, you would be so proud! Love you lots xx
Oh Rod I miss you more than ever now, but it helps to know you are free from pain now and breathing with ease,
I love you always and forever ❤️????xx
Miss you each and everyday.
This year you would have been a great grandad, and what a great one you would have been. Your great grandson has Johnny as his middle name, after you.
Benjamin, you are in our hearts forever, we miss you so very very much so much more than words can ever say.
Dedicated to our wonderful dad and husband. Loved and missed every day xx
Will be remembered always as a great Dad and loving husband xx
To my lovely Gran and Granfer, Miss you everyday, my light shines brightly for you both. The robins have been visiting, so i know you are near. Biggest love, Minnie xxx
She was a fighter till the end . Rest in peace girl.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
Mummy ????
Forever in our hearts Steve,
We miss you xxx
The years pass by but my love for you remains as strong as ever Mum. Merry Christmas, Love always xx

Remembering my dear cousin Keith who passed away this weekend 8/11/25. . Happy memories of life in Dubai.
My parents passed away 23 years and 9 years ago respectively, and although they didn't require the services of St Barnabas, I feel this local charity is such a worthy cause. The Light up a Life fundraiser is a wonderful idea. You remember your loved ones who have passed each and every day, but this Light up a Life at Christmas is especially special! Forever remembered…
My dearest love. You are missed and thought of every single day.
Miss you everyday

Always remembered
In memory of my lovely mum at Christmas, missed so very much every day.
