"No One's Gonna Bother You,"
However hard the grief is I know I'm fortunate to have had both these lovely people in my life.
To my big brother, Dave and my best friend, Karen – love never dies.
Rembering my family coming on Boxing Day every year and my Grandad falling asleep after lunch!
So many special Christmas memories. Love you always, miss you forever my darling. xxx
Love and peace from all the family x
Thinking of our Mum Beryl who we lost in 2005 and also our Step-Mum Jan who we sadly lost in September. You were both very much loved and are missed every day xx
We were in the forces and we would come home to Lincoln to see our families. Nan would take us on the bus to town and we would always have a marshmallow cone from the cake shop on the way home. Christmas was always a time for family and still is with fond memories of those times growing up at Christmas and spending time with family we didn't see the rest of the year.
I will always remember his loving and caring personality
Elaine was the most beautiful, kind, caring and compassionate wife and mum. 41 years of marriage and our love grew stronger year by year. So unlucky to lose her too soon but so lucky to have met her and for us to realise we were meant for each other. Elaine, you will never be forgotten, I will never stop loving you; until we meet again, forever yours, Richard xx
We think of you both always, Christmas is no different but oh how we wish you both were here with us. Lots of love always xxxx
We miss you Stuart, the best co worker and an even better human being. The kindness and positivity you showed us all continues to warm our hearts.
Love your friends at Anglian Water Business
Christmas is a really difficult time of year for me. It really is a time for family and with you both gone, it is just not the same.
I love and miss you both so much.

Not a day goes by that I don't think about you.
I hope you're looking down and watching over me.
Miss you always
Hello, I have made a kind donation in memory of my amazing mum, Sarah and would love to share her story.
My mum was cared for by St Barnabas hospice, and stayed in the inpatient unit November-December 2024. At the age of 38 she had been diagnosed with a rare, incurable form of genetic lung cancer. Her short battle with cancer was terrible for us all to see, but the incredible care she received at your hospice meant the world to us.
One of the last memories we ever made with our mum was watching the torchlight procession together outside the unit. The staff assisted in bundling my mum up in blankets and fluffy socks and wheeled her outside to watch the light walk with her family and children. There were tears, smiles, laughter, kind words and hugs from those passing by. I am heartbroken yet honoured to be participating in the walk this year in honour of my mother.
On the 4th of December, the staff set up their conservatory to allow us to spend one last Christmas Day as a family. We laid presents under the beautiful tree, played music and ate a Christmas dinner and cakes brought in by family. My mum was able to watch her young boys and teenage girls open the presents she’d picked out for them earlier in the year, alongside being spoilt herself with lots and lots of bracelets, teddy bears and skincare! The nurses were constantly on hand to assist with pain management and ensuring my mum was comfortable throughout the day.
The staff gave it their all, from washing, brushing and drying mum’s hair to being there for a broken family in the worst moments of their life. They went above and beyond to allow us to make those last memories. The nurses constantly spoke to me and my siblings and ensured we were staying as strong as possible! Mandy stayed with us as my mum took her last breaths and I’m forever grateful that we had her support and guidance, and that she showed my mum complete compassion and gentle care right up until the end.
My mum was treated with respect and dignity until the moment she left your unit. She loved the yummy food, joking around with her nurses and watching the squirrels and birds from her window. It felt like home.
Thank you St Barnabas, we will always keep your charity close to our hearts. You have made a huge difference to our lives.
Jane, miss you so very much. Christmas will not be the same without you. Love you lots xxxx
Tony, keep shining bright. We miss you.
My dad always my hero

Always thinking of you dad, we love you so much and miss you everyday 🫶
My first Christmas without a hug and smile from you will be difficult but I will remember how lucky I have been to call you ‘Mum’ for so many years and how wonderful it was to be your son.
To a mum and dad who always made Christmas such a special time of year for their children and grandchildren. We love and miss you both. We will remember you this and every Christmas, and will take inspiration from the values and traditions you taught us. With love from Paul and Jo (and from all the family) xxxxxxx
Broken hearted without you. Love and miss you. All my love Jill
