My dad passed away 15 days ago at home with me holding his hand. I can not thank St Barnabas hospice home care enough for how they looked after my dad in his final week and how they supported me also. So much care and empathy from the nurses that tended to my dad. I will forever be grateful. Thank you
The most gentle and generous man who I was lucky enough to live with. So many memories but I loved bringing your lunch to the fields when you were harvesting and sitting with you in the sunshine. We are looking after Gran for you and miss you everyday xx
Dad, you passed away 18th Oct 2020 and I still can’t believe you are gone, my heart is breaking. You were my hero and I’m going to miss you so so much, I’ll never forget you. Happy Christmas dad, love you, sleep tight, Michele xxx
Uncle Ed, you passed away 23rd March 2020, I’ll miss you. Please look after dad for me, keep each other company. Happy Christmas, love you, sleep tight, Michele xxx
Our family's had some wonderful holidays and Christmases together. Julie was always the life and soul of any party's we had. She was a wonderful sister.
Lisa was diagnosed with terminal Melanoma in 2020 and when the time came was cared for, as she had wished, by the wonderful " Angels" that work at the St Barnabas Hospice in Lincoln. I can say without a moments hesitation that from the second we arrived at the Hospice the care and attention that was shown to Lisa and all our family was simply unbelievable in every way. We will always be thankful for those last few days that made a heart breaking time a little more bearable for us all. I am not a particularly religious person but i say "God bless each and everyone of you". Thank you and Happy Christmas to you all.
For my dear Mum, missed every day xx
Whilst Dad didn't use the hospice in his lifetime he had many relatives that did and he was a big supporter of St Barnabas being a local lad. After such a tough year he will be missed at Christmas and we think this is a lovely way to remember him.
To a one in a million Dad
Loved and missed every day.
God bless. shine bright
Love from Mandy, Jack, Frankie @ Loulou xx
Always in our hearts.
Always in our hearts
In memory of my mother.
Stuart, you are greatly missed every day, but your memories are strong and cherished, love always Alistair x
In memory of mum and dad at Christmas.
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.
Our first Christmas apart I miss you so much
Rest peacefully
Happy Christmas, miss you so much, love Tracy, James, Mark, Rachel, Cy, Lucy and Emily x
This light is dedicated to my beloved husband Martin Lumb who passed in February this year. The hospice looked after my husband in his last few days and supported Martin and I through the palliative care stages . They are the most wonderful people and we couldn’t have done it without their support.
Martin passed with dignity and peace and that meant the world to his whole family.
Miss you every day my darling and will be thinking of you this Christmas as we spend time together as a family without you, you will be in all our hearts and thoughts. Will love you forever my darling .

Missing you this Christmas and always
In memory of Mum, 25 years on, I remember you sitting in your fluffy 'click-clack' slippers watching us open our presents, from our pillowcases, then on to a breakfast of ham and eggs… passing those traditions on to the grandchildren, you never got to meet … and thanks to the care at St B, never forgotten always loved.

Every year I have a light to in memory of my Queen, my Nan. I love you lots and miss you dearly. Also this year I lost my fabulous Uncle Mick who was always there for me and my girls. This light is for you too. Love Sarah, Scott, Lilly and Poppy xx
Miss you more than words can say. We love you and should have told you more x
When you left us, you did the most amazing thing. You gave life and sight to others. You were always so kind and thoughtful and this was reflected in your gift, even after you had gone. I hope the recipients are happy, healthy and are loved. Perhaps one day we will hear from them but until then, know that we are proud to call you our mum. Love you my mummy x
Loved and remembered by us every day.
Margaret who died 28.11.2001 and was cared for so brilliantly by all at St Barnabas,

Dear Mum and Dad,

Love,
