This was my husband’s most favourite time of the year. He loved all things shiny and glittery and would decorate the house with as much as he could get away with. This is our first year without him. ????
It's always hard at this time of year and things don't get any easier. However, I have many fond memories, which make me laugh, cry and smile.
Always in my thoughts each and every day.
Love Maureen
Your forever in my heart.
Our first Christmas without you. We miss you so much beautiful boy
Remembering Jules, our beautiful daughter.
Colin and Maureen Nicholson.
I wish you were still here with us all.
Miss you so much Granny

Dear Family and friend who are missed greatly and left too soon.
My wonderful Dad was a loving and caring Dad and Grandad. His birthday was a week before Christmas. We always made it special for him with it being so close to celebrating Christmas. He felt he missed out when he was younger! We always had a family get together – a birthday tea on the 18th December. When we were little and later when our children were small we knew it would be a week until Santa would have visited. I have wonderful memories of my Dad. He is deeply missed every day. Happy Christmas my darling Dad. Forever in our hearts.

For an unforgettable wife of 48 years, who was take by Cancer 11 years ago in November 2013.
Jill was a loving mother and grandmother who can never be replaced.
Why is life so cruel?
Myself and my dad used to have a competition on who would have our Christmas tree up first. Dad always won! He used to ring me saying he had beat me, I really miss having that call ♡
Another Christmas has come since you've gone.
Never will any of you be forgotten.
There is all way's love in our Hearts for you All
Dedicating a light to my dad who loved Christmas and made it so magical for us as children, and then for my children. Always look for the brightest star in the sky.
In loving memory of the best mummy anybody could ever have, who was looked after so well by St Barnabas
I miss you and think of you every day.x
Mum,
Forever loved, forever missed xxx
I miss you both so much!
You are near, even if I don’t see you. You are with me, even if you are far away. You are in my thoughts, in my heart, in my life. Always!
For Helen – the best little sister and friend I could have ever asked for. Missing and loving you now, forever and always. Ga jer xxx
Daniel, Not having you with us all to celebrate Christmas is not something we will ever get use to. This year our first without you will be so hard however Ethan, Harper and I will try to smile and fill it full of laughter like you would have done. Your sense of humour is what got us all through the hardest of times. We will all use this same outlook on life at Christmas to make it as special as it can be. You will be in our thoughts and in all that we do xx You are so missed, yet still loved so much xx
St Barnabes allowed us all as a family to have that quality time. The children were able to spend time with their Dad in a comfortable and safe setting. The staff went above and beyond for us all and embraced Dans wicked sense of humour. They made him feel safe and cared for him with such compassion and dignity. We were all looked after nothing was ever too much trouble. The most important thing they did was allowed us to have some extra time and memories.
Having a light shine in honour of Dan warms our hearts and gives us some comfort.
It was never goodbye but see you soon
Every day is a Dan day
Forever loved
Always Vicky, Ethan and Harper xx
Every
Knowing we can give back to them in this way helps us all feel we are doing something when a Thank you just isn’t enough for our gratitude.
I am dedicating this light to my Nan, Joy. She was an amazing lady who was always the light and soul of everything. We lost you recently and it is so hard that your not here. We miss you everyday and love you so much. Shine bright Nan.
You will never walk alone, and always remembered love, Jane Mark Andy Lynsey Oliver & Phoebe xx
My mum volunteered at St Barnabas and was a nurse for 45 years. She sadly lost her battle with Motor Neurone Disease, this September, after only a few months since diagnosis. She is now at peace and back with her parents, my grandparents xx
Always remembered, always loved, always my hero. Until we meet again always in my thoughts and always in my heart XxX
