Christmas was his favourite time of year; it's not the same without his practical jokes, dancing Christmas hats or wicked sense of humour. Loved dearly x

My Rock. Always in my heart.

Dad i still can't actually believe you aren't here even though its been a whole year. You are missed by so many but will always remain in our thoughts and in our hearts. Dad i love you Millions xxx

There are no words to say how much I miss you, and especially at this time of year on our first Christmas without you. You always made Christmas so magical for us growing up and I’m trying to do the same for the girls, after all I was taught by the best, but without you every day is tinted with a little grey

Merry Christmas mum, I love you xxxx

Thank you for teaching us what it’s all about..LOVE! We’ll miss you and hopefully we won’t forget the carrots! MISS YOU & LOVE YOU SO MUCH, ALWAYS! Love Rachel, Gav & Neve XXX

Life is fragile, my love of you is forever

Daniel, Not having you with us all to celebrate Christmas is not something we will ever get use to. This year our first without you will be so hard however Ethan, Harper and I will try to smile and fill it full of laughter like you would have done. Your sense of humour is what got us all through the hardest of times. We will all use this same outlook on life at Christmas to make it as special as it can be. You will be in our thoughts and in all that we do xx You are so missed, yet still loved so much xx

St Barnabes allowed us all as a family to have that quality time. The children were able to spend time with their Dad in a comfortable and safe setting. The staff went above and beyond for us all and embraced Dans wicked sense of humour. They made him feel safe and cared for him with such compassion and dignity. We were all looked after nothing was ever too much trouble. The most important thing they did was allowed us to have some extra time and memories.

Having a light shine in honour of Dan warms our hearts and gives us some comfort.

It was never goodbye but see you soon
Every day is a Dan day
Forever loved

Always Vicky, Ethan and Harper xx

Every

Knowing we can give back to them in this way helps us all feel we are doing something when a Thank you just isn’t enough for our gratitude.

Remembered with love

Thanks for sharing 60 wonderful years.

Remembering with much love this Christmas time

Remembering my dear husband, but also thankful for the excellent care and support the Hospice at Home team gave him during his last few weeks

Remembering fondly happy family times with love.

This Christmas is the first without my beloved Grandma, Sylvia. My Grandma loved Christmas and I cherish lots of memories around the Christmas period that I had with her.
Shine bright Gma and I hope you’re pulling all the crackers up there. I love you.

Another Christmas Mum, another year without you. We all miss you so much. Love you always Sarah, Jeremy and all the family. ❤️xxxxx❤️
