I miss you playing little jingles to wake us up on Christmas morning. I miss the smile on your face and excitement in yours eyes when you present us with Christmas stockings – that you STILL did for us all even as adults each year. I miss the strange/odd gifts you used to buy me that you thought I’d love! I miss seeing you dancing and singing to ‘rocking around the Christmas tree’ (usually in something red!) in the kitchen while we prepped and cooked Christmas dinner together… and so much more besides.

I regret that you never saw me happy with Russ who I met the year after you passed and I am saddened that you never got to hold your Grandchild Oakley. But you live on in all of us and Russ tells me he feels like he knows you as I speak of you so often and Oakley will feel the same in time I’m sure it – he already has a lot of love for ‘Nanny Bear’ who he kisses and cuddles often. I tell him he has to be a good boy as Nanny is always watching and checking in on him!

We miss you Mum, our sun moon and stars xxxxxx

You will both be very much missed. Christmas isn’t the same without you. Xxx

We love and miss you so much Daddy. Xxxx

I love that you are my person
and I am yours, that whatever door we come to, we will open it together.
Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday.

Wonderful memories Dad
Much love Jill xx

Missing you so much x

A lovely girl with the kindest heart and a beautiful smile.
Everyone loved her. She lit up a room.

Buying the Christmas tree

To mum we all love and miss you so much you were the best mum anyone could have love from Donna Angie Vicki and Steve Xxxx

Thinking of you both

For my Auntie Bern, who was so selfless to everyone who had the pleasure to know her.

For the lovely Jeannette who lovingly welcomed me Into her family and home.

I hope you both are sharing the gossip with a glass of Prosecco!

Love you lots.

Remembering you Dad all year and especially at hogmanay. Special times.

Wonderful memories of great times spent together. Adrenalin-fuelled planning, 'who' was coming and 'when'? Last minute shopping a certainty! The fraught stages of prep forgotten as the day filled with love, laughter, and good cheer. Remembered now with great love as that Christmas Table shrinks, albeit gradually.

Sending you all our love now and forever.XX

My wife passed away over four years ago. She had dementia and later cancer. She is with me every day and missed by so many. She was looked after in her final seven weeks at home with help from St Barnabas.

Mum,

Forever loved, forever missed xxx

Love you dad , your so loved and sorely missed xx rip dad xx poppa love all the children and grandchildren xx

Together, we saw the whole of the moon. Thank you for the days.

You may not be with me in person but your presence in my heart and mind has not dimmed with the passage of time. The excitement of Christmas has never been the same since we lost you.

We miss you and thinking of you always

Lovely, irreverent, Liz

Dear Daddy,
