Our first Christmas without you, shine bright up there. Loved and missed everyday xx xx

Always in my thoughts mum

Missed by his wife, children & grandchildren so many christmas memories

A strength I'm still learning from. One I should have realised earlier than I did. Love you mum.

Thinking of a much loved son, brother, father and uncle xx

We often think of you Yan especially this time of year. I know you are at peace now with mum and dad
Miss you always xxx

Jeannettes poem,

When you were with us you weren’t one for soft spoken words.
Any attempts at emotional conversation you’d effortlessly swerve.
If you were here now and you sensed this heart-pour.
You’d tell me to shush, sit down, to ‘close the door’.
We’d all sit in the lounge, all cosy and all warm.
Put a film on the TV, then talk through it all.
With a cat on your lap and the dog at your knees.
You’d pet and you’d fuss until I agreed ‘Aren’t they so pretty’.
We’d sit there for hours and put the world to rights.
Reminiscing and laughing about all the good old times.
Giggling at memories till the day turned to the dark.
Like the new haircut ‘chode’ or your day trip to the park….
Even at the end you were always true to you.
A fabulous diva, and you, through and through.
Walk past your reflection and your hair you would tease.
With your effortless style and you in your dungarees.
One thing is for certain, there’s no one quite like you.
Even treatment shakes were taken by champagne flute.

Now you are gone, and it’s time to say.
That you could bring sunshine to the darkest of day.
And although I never said it, you know what you meant to me.
My life lived with you is full of endless happy memories.
From little girls to little women, with you I have grown.
You have been there from the beginning, your home is now my home.
So I want to say Thank you, for everything you have done.
In my heart you are my family, you are an adopted Mum.
You have always been there so Goodbye is hard to say.
But I know I’ll see you again, on the other-side one day.
You’ll be holding hands with Dereck and Barbs, Molly and JellyBean too.
And I will get to tell you…. J-dog, I love you.

Stu, missing you more than ever, five years on yet it seems like yesterday x

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

Christmas was Hannah's favourite time x

For Dad -A Beautiful Gentleman, Father and Grandfather we will love you always and forever. We remember your final words and give thanks everyday. It is exactly as you said Dad "We must give thanks to the Lord for the life he has given us" We are always thankful for the Lord and for you more than you will ever know. Much love.

I love you with all my heart . I miss you so much

At Christmas we celebrate JOY to the World – without Jesus we would have no hope

We love and miss you Dad/ Grandad/ Husband and Great Grandad
Happy Christmas and shine bright
