Gone too soon, you weren’t ready to go, fly high, test in peace, time to spend Christmas with your mum, external love always xxx

Always loved never forgotten xxx

Dad passed away in March this year and Christmas just won't be the same this year. Every Christmas he would send a lovely card to all of his Grandchildren and on the back of the envelope he would always put a smiley face sticker. Every birthday he would do the same. The kids would always look forward to the cards and sticker on the back. He did this for many many years. At his funeral we stuck a smiley face sticker on his coffin. He would have laughed his unmistakable laugh at this as he had a great sense of humour. We love and miss you dearly Dad /Grandad and now Great Grandad xxx

For my daughter Katy who was tragically taken from us on 18th December 1999 at the age of 15. She is singing now with the angels.
And and wonderful husband Terry Brighton who fought so hard to beat cancer but was taken from us on 31st October 2022.
My sincere thanks to the wonderful St Barnabas nurses who helped and supported us through this dreadful last year. Linda Brighton

Bill always used to stand outside the toilet when I was in there brushing my teeth and sing really loudly or pretend to fly like a plane with his arms in the air, he always made me laugh.

Miss you Mummy.
Lots of love, Ed, Georgie & Soph Xxxx

In loving memory of Dad our 1st Christmas without him. xxx

Much love for all the lovely Christmases we spent as a couple and as a family.
Missed now and always,

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.

We all miss you both every single day.

Thinking of you grandma as always and treasure those special memories and all the laughter we shared as a family over the years. You’ll always be truly treasured in our hearts and never forgotten. Love you always mum, grandma & great gran gran from your loving family xxxxxxx

Remembering you Dad, will miss you this Christmas.

Almost 3 years ago we lost our Mum very suddenly and at a young age to cancer. We are so grateful to all of the staff at St. Barnabas who treated Mum with such respect and love. Sadly in the space of just a few years we have had three family members who have all needed care from the team at St Barnabas. The work they all do is just amazing and they continue to need as much help as possible to continue to provide this level of care for so many families.

Mum you always made Christmas special for us even when there was little money. You are the Angel on top of my tree.????

Wendy is a friend I’ll never forget. She made such an impact on my family’s life. We will never forget her. William was the most lovely young man. He brought a smile to everyone’s faces and will always have a special place in my heart.

To dad merry Christmas we love and miss you so much Sarah Jonathan maisie and Harry

We miss you every day hope your watching over us and know we love you xxx
