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.
We miss you everyday clarkey but at Christmas your absence is felt the most…your favourite time of the year! xxxx
My mum was a very special lady who lived her last months with the same peace and humour which had accompanied her throughout her life. I miss her every day and I know Christmas will be a little less merry without her, but I am lucky to have many very happy memories which keep her with me always.
Dad was a dearly loved by us all and we hold fond memories of him.
He was lovingly cared for by the St Barnabas nurses in his own home, where he chose to be at the end , for which we will be forever grateful.
Our beloved Mum, Margaret, died this May and is now reunited with Dad.
Always in our hearts and minds.
Born an angel
