A very proud rock ape who was so brave to the end. A loving husband and dad we will love and miss you always . Susan + Samantha xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Two years ago, heaven gained their queen angel. You were the best of us, and I will carry your kindness with me.
This was my husband’s most favourite time of the year. He loved all things shiny and glittery and would decorate the house with as much as he could get away with. This is our first year without him. ????
Loved Deeply and never forgotten
This is a sad and happy time of year for me; as I remember your passing in Oct 2014, but also a happy time in December as it was also your birthday and we started our celebration of Christmas by attending the Carole service in the Cathedral and then celebrated Christmas with all the family.
Mum & Dad, Nan Nan & Grandad we miss you so much, lots of love Craig, Sarah, Maisie & Olivia

To Dad, my hero,
I think of you and miss you every single day. There is a dad shaped hole in my heart that feels more prominent at this time of year.
This light is dedicated to you. May it shine as bright as your smile.
Merry Christmas.
Love you always

We are remembering my Grandad. An amazing trombone player in his day as well as a terrifically talented joiner. My Grandad was like a built in best friend. So funny, his smile and laugh just lit up the entire room. And I would always feel safe and secure whenever he was near, he just had a calming presence. He always reassured you that you would be fine and give you a big squeeze and you would instantly feel better. My grandad was so determined, this showed when he had a stroke when I was younger and he had to learn how to read, write and speak again and he did. He passed away two years ago now from falling on a rainy day and after all he had achieved recovering from those traumas, it left such a hole in our lives for him to be suddenly taken when he was so healthy. Our lives are definitely different without him as he was such a light and a joy. Everyone who met him says the same, he was just a force of nature. The best husband, father and grandad in the world.
We are also remembering my Granny (Grandad’s wife) unfortunately she passed when I was a baby so I didn’t get much time with her, which really upsets me but when I hear all the wonderful and also funny stories about her I truly feel like I know her so well. She was so kind, so creative, also a force of nature. She was very determined, she ran a restaurant whilst taking care of her family and just had so many feathers to her cap! She had an eye for detail. I wish I could have spent years on end with her, going around antique shops which she so dearly loved. She was a treasured wife, mother and Granny.
We are also remembering my Auntie Bridget. When my granny passed away Auntie Bridget sort of took on the role of Granny duties. And to this day , I can say she truly shaped who I am. She was so kind, so delicate, always fair. Auntie Bridget loved church and keeping her rosary beads close to her (which is something I like to do now because of her), everything in her home was perfect and beautiful. Some of the best memories of my childhood are school holidays at my Auntie Bridget’s. And walking through her front door and getting a whiff of her homemade chicken soup that she was cooking. Everyone who knew her, held a special place in their hearts for Auntie Bridget and that’s a fact. We miss her everyday.
And finally we are remembering my Granny Flynn (Auntie Bridget’s sister and my Mums Granny) she too passed when I was baby so I don’t have any memories with her and I so wish I did because of the stories I hear she was such a kind and wonderful person to know. I have one picture of her holding me when I was just born, I’m asleep in her lap and she is looking down at me just like an angel and she is so very gently holding my tiny hand with the tips of her fingers, the picture is so beautiful and special because although I never knew her that picture shows how much she loved me and how many memories we would have made together , the memories would have been wonderful. My mum describes her as so elegant and very much “a lady” and she was a huge part of my mum’s growing up, almost everyday they would see her, she was like a “second mum”. It just shows how treasured she was.
Stu, the pain of losing you never goes away, but the memories and joy that you brought shine through even the darkest days. x
To Dad/Grandad Timmy
You loved Christmas with your musical socks and singing Christmas gadgets.
A day doesn’t go by without thinking of you and your jovial sense of humour.
Love you always xx
Love and miss you at Christmas and every day of the year x
My first Christmas without my
much-loved Mum. Thought of and missed every minute of every day.
My Dad died in St Barnabas Hospice on 7th October 1994 & I will never forget all you did for us as a family.
My Mum died on 1st August 2014 & my lovely husband on 10th August 2016.
I miss them all every day but more so at this time of year.
They will always be loved & forever in my heart.
