It is especially hard at Christmastime without you. You loved Christmas and we would always look forward to spending it with you. Miss you always xxx
Always in our hearts Jamesy, Christmas was your most favourite time of the year and it was when you chose to go xx
Barrie used to pretend he wasn't bothered about Christmas but deep down I know he did, being close to family and all the grandchildren is what made him the happiest, miss him and his silly ways so much and always will.
Jane was very well cared for at the hospice in her final few weeks. It's almost 8 years but she's still very much loved and missed. It's the anniversary of us losing our lovely Dad tomorrow to Covid. Brother Dave & I will be together and raising several glasses to him.
My wonderful husband and love of my life forever in my heart
Love and miss you so much Babe.
Forever yours, Mary

Life isn't the same without you, Mum. Missing you loads. Love, Tina xxx
This light is dedicated to my mum and dad. May its light shine as brightly as their love.
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.
We were in the forces and we would come home to Lincoln to see our families. Nan would take us on the bus to town and we would always have a marshmallow cone from the cake shop on the way home. Christmas was always a time for family and still is with fond memories of those times growing up at Christmas and spending time with family we didn't see the rest of the year.
Love and miss you always Grandad.
Love Mason, Jaxon & Amelia ???????? xxx
Getting engaged on Christmas Day, it was very emotional.
Daddy was unique, a classical tenor, a jack of all trades, mastering most, he built our family home in Greece himself, taught us independence and to enjoy the little things, breaking free of generational shackles to love and support us with our Mummy. We are lucky to have had you in this life as our Daddy. We love you and will miss you fiercely.
Remembering my husband, Roger, and my two sons, Pete and Jamie who all loved Christmas. I miss them sooo much at this time of the year. Roger died in the loving and kind care of Lincoln St Barnabas Hospice.
Always thinking of you dad, we love you so much and miss you everyday 🫶
First Christmas without you forever 28, we love you so much, your the brightest Star in the sky
Miss you mum more than words can say shine bright like a star ❤ with lots of love always Susanne xx
However hard the grief is I know I'm fortunate to have had both these lovely people in my life.
To my big brother, Dave and my best friend, Karen – love never dies.
Loved and remembered always xxx
You always were and forever will be a light in my life Dad,
Forever missed and loved.
Your Daughter xx
Lots of happy memories sadly missed
Life just isnt the same without you 831 xxx
We will be thinking of you as always this Christmas. It is the first Christmas that our family is back together in your old house, so it will bring back so many happy memories. You will both be missed, especially Grandad’s jokes and Grandma’s mince pies and trifle!
Lots of love,
Hannah, Lucy, Ian and Ruth xxx
