Lyn and I didn't meet until our mid-40s and it turned out we had less than 8 years together, 4 of which were in the shadow of cancer until she passed away in November 2016. But in those 8 years she made me the happiest man in the world. We were married in 2011, just over a year before her diagnosis after which we still made the most of the time we had remaining. She never complained, never sought pity and a lot of people didn't even realise her situation until the last months when she had to give up work. The St Barnabus Hospice At Home team were the greatest source of help and support in that final period, and the day centre were too before and, for me, after that. I'll never be able to thank them enough.
IN MEMORY AT NOT JUST CHRISTMAS BUT ALWAYS IN OUR THOUGHTS
Dearly loved, never forgotten, sadly passed away in 2014.

Christmas wasn't a time dad was fussed about but he always made an effort. Asking what meat I wanted from M+S then saying it must be bloody good at that price ha ha. A walk and drink in weatherspoons and coconut talc and liquorice was always wrapped up as a gift ❤️ Memories are forever in my heart.
Christmas will never be the same, but we have lots of memories to cherish and also lots more to make.
Wonderful parents who are sorely missed especially at this time of the year.
