Christmas was one of Pauline's favourite times of the year. She loved everything about it. Buying gifts and wrapping them. She loved spending time with family generally eating, drinking and being merry.
It has been 3 years in January since she passed away and it's not getting any easier. I miss her so much. XXX
Missing you both always
Wishing you a Merry Christmas
Love from
Joan, Paul and the family

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.
You are dearly missed, may you forever rest in peace. We love you both
I have so many memories of my wonderful Grandad, but one of my absolute favourites was when I took him to the hospital for an appointment earlier this year. When we got there I got to wheel him around in a wheelchair which he found absolutely hilarious as I was so scared of pushing him into a wall or a door frame! He even joked as we were leaving about me passing my wheelchair pushing license – making a joke about me not passing my driving test yet! But this is one of my favourite memories because it was the first time I had seen my Grandad genuinely smile for a very long time.
Forever missed but always in our thoughts and remembered. A loving wife & mother a faithful friend that all have treasured memories of you. Admired and respected for who you were a Lovely Irish Treasure. God Bless Youxxxx
Thinking of you all, at Christmas and 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.
My Mum was the light and glue of our family. We have been lost without her and this time of year is always such a reminder of the missing piece of our family. Merry Christmas Mum xxx
Cracking open a tin of biscuits for you this Christmas! We all love and miss you lots, from the Lewin and Potter family. xxxxx
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.
Love you always Carl xxx
A lovely girl with the kindest heart and a beautiful smile.
Everyone loved her. She lit up a room.
Dear Colin
This is a special time of year for us with your birthday closely followed by Christmas. Sadly it is also the time that I lost you unexpectedly last year. This year has been the toughest of my life and I miss you so much. Wishing you were here with me this Christmas. Debbie xx
Mum loved Lincoln Cathedral at night, especially at Christmas when it was surrounded by Christmas trees. To know that she is being remembered by having a light dedicated to her this Christmas makes it very special.
We miss you so much and you are always in our thoughts
