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.
I miss you playing little jingles to wake us up on Christmas morning. I miss the smile on your face and excitement in yours eyes when you present us with Christmas stockings – that you STILL did for us all even as adults each year. I miss the strange/odd gifts you used to buy me that you thought I’d love! I miss seeing you dancing and singing to ‘rocking around the Christmas tree’ (usually in something red!) in the kitchen while we prepped and cooked Christmas dinner together… and so much more besides.
I regret that you never saw me happy with Russ who I met the year after you passed and I am saddened that you never got to hold your Grandchild Oakley. But you live on in all of us and Russ tells me he feels like he knows you as I speak of you so often and Oakley will feel the same in time I’m sure it – he already has a lot of love for ‘Nanny Bear’ who he kisses and cuddles often. I tell him he has to be a good boy as Nanny is always watching and checking in on him!
We miss you Mum, our sun moon and stars xxxxxx
Loved and remembered always xxx
Love and miss you all so much xxxx
In loving memory of my beloved parents, who are now reunited.
My dad.
We lost suddenly.
He was loving, caring, protective of his girls and funny. He was a fantastic husband and grandad.
We miss you every single minute of the day.
You loved christmas and all the sparkle of the lights and getting excited with the kids new toys.
This light represents that sparkle you brought us all at christmas time.
With all our love dad. Merry Christmas
Our first Christmas apart Dad, I will love and miss forever ????????????
The hospice at home team were amazing at supporting my father in law in his last weeks, and allowed the family to spend that time together at his home. His grandchildren would like his light to shine on the tree of life this Christmas, as he was such a big part of all family festivities and was the ‘real’ Santa to all who knew him.
My dear Mum loved Christmas – it was her favourite time of year, bless her..
My father-in-law Keith was born on 23rd December – remembering him on his special day.
Clarkey,
Christmas was always your favourite time and your presence is missed so much more at this time of the year. We will carry on celebrating you as you keep on watching over us. Always loved Forever missed xxxx
Wishing my dad and father in law a merry heavenly christmas truly the best time of the year. You might not both be here in body but your spirit is alive and you are both remembered every day. These lights are for you, and will shine brightly for all to see ss this is the time we wish you were here.
Think of you every day. I miss you.
It has been 2 years dad and I miss you every day.
