My Uncle Lew was 2nd dad and my favourite person. He used to call me that too, "his favourite". My Auntie Bett is my 2nd mum and is my real life Fairy God-mother. She's now in the Hospice, being nursed and looked after by the wonderful nurses. Uncle Lew will fetch her when she's ready and they'll be together again. I love them both so much and I dedicate my light to them. They've lit up my life for the last 41 years and will do forever and ever. I feel so blessed they loved me back.

My favourite Christmas memory was when Kev was unexpectedly discharged from hospital just in time to spend Christmas with his family. We weren't to know that it would be the last Christmas we would share together. The best present we could ever have wished for.

In loving memory of a dear husband and father

Every year without fail mom would drop the turkey- it was a Christmas tradition!

Dad,

Missing and loving you more than yesterday but less than tomorrow. Endless love sent to the stars, Happy heavenly Christmas.

merry christmas jay! i hope you’re partying hard up there. love you always <3

Mum, each day is a little darker without you so I hope this brings a little light. I hope we are making you proud. We vow to always stick together even though nothing is the same. Sometimes it feels as though you're here with us, just a little out of reach. Some days we could do with your honest (and probably brutal) advice, to make us see the right path. We will continue to work hard every day and support each other as you taught us.
Wish you were here ❤️
Merry Christmas Mum/Nanny/Maria

There are no goodbyes for us…
Wherever you are, you will always be inside our hearts. Merry Christmas Dad♥️

To Simo, Remembering all the special times we had together as a family at Christmas. The first will always be hard but we know you’ll be shining down on us. We’ll raise a pint to you on Christmas Day. We all miss you so much. Shine bright my Simo. Lots of endless love from your Kezza, Tom, Jack and all your loving loving family. ❤️ xxxxxx

HER SMILE WOULD LIGHT UP A ROOM. THE MOST SELFLESS AND CARING DAUGHTER ANY FATHER COULD ASK FOR. LOVED HER SO MUCH.

Our first year without you at Christmas. It will feel very strange. We miss you Mum/Grandma, Helen & Alice xxx

Missing you everyday, Nan. Always in my thoughts and forever in my heart. Love you always xxxx

Always remembered xxx

Another Christmas nearly upon us without you. We Love, miss and think about you every day. Sending you lots of love, Sarah, Jeremy and family ❤️xxxxx❤️

My father who art in heaven..
A prayer couldnt save you from what came,
Although now I whisper your name,
Every day and every night
It's a hug I need, and to hold you tight.
On Christmas day, I will set your place, and pour your drink, play your games, then shut my eyes to see your face.
Merry Xmas dad, your presence will always be felt. X

Dear Daddy, your golden voice will ring through the ages and your music will touch many more hearts to come. We miss you immensely and may your tenor voice be ringing out true and clear wherever you are. I love you Daddy.

My mum spent her last moments in st barnabas and I am so grateful for the care they provided her and were able to give us those last special moments with her. All staff were amazing. I have no words that would forever show how incredible the place is!

Remembering a very special stepdad at this time of year, we think of you everyday and you will stay forever in our hearts. This will be the first Christmas without you and it won’t seem right not writing and sending a special Christmas card to you. Your light will shine on the tree and bring us comfort as will the light on our Christmas tree. As we decorate our tree we shall be remembering you with loving affection and although it will bring a tear your light will bring us comfort. Loving you always and remembering you each day, love from Julie, Daryll, Sean, Michelle and Mark xxxxx
