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.
Merry Christmas up in heaven i look up to the stars and look for the brightest one and think of you down here is not the same here without you love and missing you so much xx
The most amazing person ever an extra special mum grandma and matma. Will be missed always. Dedicated her life to family and also to teaching.
Thinking with love and very special memories of my soulmate, David, his Father, my parents, my brother and my special friend. I miss you all so much.
Pete and Dave,
Two much loved brothers and an uncle to Charlie and Erin. You are both sadly missed and taken far too soon. You were both amazing brothers and as you left, a little piece of my heart left with you. You are both together now and pain free. I’m sure you look down over the girls with pride.
Love you lots
Sue, Joe, Charlie and Erin x
Family is the most precious thing in life. We miss you all dearly.
The light of Jesus shines through all those who work in St. Barnabas
Hospice. Thank you so much for your love and support.
Remembering you this Christmas as I do every day. Love and miss you

Chris – Although 8 years ago, not a day goes by when I don’t think of my mum. Far more than when she was with us – a lesson to be shared – hug your mum tight if you are still lucky enough to have her. My mum passed away aged 63. We knew her wishes and we were honored to support her decision in the sharing of her organs. Two people’s lives were saved that day, many more improved and that is the little light at the end of dark path of sadness. She lives on, somewhere. Her gift made sure those people’s families got to celebrate another year with their loved one, and for that I am immensely proud of her. Best mum, kind to the core. X
Miss you all lots. Christmas is not the same without you. My light is in memory of you all so dear to our hearts. Love you xx
