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.
Dear Nan, you were the light of our lives and the heartbeat of our family. Losing you so suddenly has left a void that can never be filled. Our lives will never be the same without you, but I promise you will never be forgotten nor will the ones you lost in your life either. Your love and kindness will always be with us, guiding us through the darkest times. Here's a message you can use:
Christmas was always your favourite time of year, and we will honour you by keeping all of our traditions alive. We will make sure to celebrate in true style, just as you would have wanted. Your spirit will be with us every step of the way, and we’ll cherish those memories as we come together as a family xx
Peace to All
All remembered with love by sons daughter & grandchildren

You were the love of my life and I think of you and miss you constantly. Our first Christmas without you will be hard but we will remember the good times we had together (and there were so many good times.) Our memories of you live on in all of us. Sleep tight my love.

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.
Remembering and loving you forever Mum. May your light shine now and always.
Grandma and Grandad; a duo, a pair, a double act. We miss you so much, but will think of you shining brightly. Our two stars together again x
