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.
Not a day goes by that I don't think about you.
I hope you're looking down and watching over me.
Miss you always
The memory of your beautiful smile my darling will light up my Christmas.
Wishing you were both with us all at Christmas, we will be playing some of your favourite songs thinking of you both.
If you get a chance to look down on me, I hope you know that I am missing you.
A light in memory of my mother who is dearly missed by all her family. Never forgotten xxx

My Dad loved Christmas! He loved the parties and the presents; he always watched everyone else open theirs and kept his in a pile next to him to savour. He was an incredibly generous man and always made sure everyone who knew him had a treat at Christmas time. This will be our sixth without him; we all miss him very much.
To Mum and Dad
Merry Christmas
Miss you more than words can say
Love you millions
Big hugs and lots of kisses

This is in memory of my mum who always put family first. Christmas was always a special time for our family to come together.
My mum said she didn't like Christmas much and its was a big fuss for one day. She loved shopping and buying gits for everyone though! She had a stash of presents from around April.
23rd Christmas without you and it still feels like yesterday, loved and remembered every single day, xxx
The love of my life, we shared 48years together, raised our son & daughter, Chris & Laura, They were incredibly lucky that I fell in love with a wonderful girl. She was an amazing lady and we were all devastated to lose her. God bless you my darling. xx
Died in St Barnabas hospice 30 May 2024.
Not a day goes by that we don’t think of you, but Christmas brings your memory even closer. We can almost see you with a glass of red in hand, laughter lighting up the room just like you always did. You filled our lives with warmth, kindness, and joy — and that light still shines in our hearts. Cheers to you, always.
With love, from Mum and me x
