Nanna,
My first Christmas without you here.
Another massive void was left in my life, the day you returned to Grandad and Mum's arms, but I was fortunate to have you by my side for so long. Forever grateful for the love and happy memories you left behind. I will hold onto those, until we meet again my beautiful Nanna.
I love and miss you 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.
Let your spirit be free. Love Jane x
Remembering my mum Jeanie who is loved and missed by so Many x
With lots of love, remembering you at Christmas and always xxx
"and if I listen to my heart, I'll hear your laughter once more" quote from "Goodbye" by Kenny Rogers
To my amazing and much loved mum who passed away on 7 November 2022. You were the strongest woman I have ever known and I feel so proud that I was your daughter.
Remembering you both with love
Christmas was our special time and have many happy memories of spending it together. You are loved and missed every day but especially at Christmas. Julie and Rog
I still miss you so much my dear John, even though it’s several years since I lost you.
Forever heartbroken. Taken far too soon. Christmas will never be the same again. You were the best Santa ever xx
Remembering our darling son Jack not just at this special time but always. Forever in our thoughts and hearts…. #Onejacknotty ????
Miss you Dad more and more each day. There is a big part of my heart which you held, that can never be filled. I'll always remember the childish playfulness we had and always getting told off. You'll always be my daddy dumpling darling. Wish you were here to see mine and Nick's first child. Love you always, forever your little girl. Kimberley. Xxx
Love and miss you so much. Never forgotten. Love Mum. xxx
We know you are shining down on us this christmas Nanny. You are missed more than you could ever imagine. God Bless xxx
Remembering all the Christmas's we had with you.
Gran,
This is the first Christmas without you. Will always love you and miss you everyday. When anything happens, you’re the first person I want to call and for a brief second, I forget I can’t.
I sponsored this light as it helps to keep you shining. You’ll be shining outside the Cathedral. Remember when you came up for my graduation and we pushed you over the cobbles. I will always remember your laugh that day.
Love you forever
Mum always loved Christmas and spending time with all the family. We really miss her every day and hope she can see the light shining for her xx
We had the privilege of being with our baby Emma for just one day yet ever since keeping her lovingly within our hearts.
My grandma collected on behalf of St Barnabas for many years prior to her sad passing. I spent the majority of my Christmas’s with her, sharing the festive day which normally ended with some games of scrabble, of course, she always won! In honour of all the work she did to help St Barnabas, I want to carry on her legacy by supporting this charity which was very close to her heart.
As you mentioned, when the fireworks go off across the season we will continue to think of you and your forever spirit (living on in us) remembering silly moments including you allowing swings on beams inside!
Missing dad this Christmas
In memory of my amazing Mum who I miss so very much. She loved Christmas, so I will make this time of year extra special for my daughters in her memory. I love you mum, miss you more each day x
