All beautiful and much loved and missed members of our family. Emma, George, Dad, Mum and Brian shine brightly this Christmas and always xxx

Love you so much and miss you every second of every day. I wish I could just see you one more time to tell you how much I love you. X

Our dear mum was a beautiful lady who cared for everyone she ever met. She was kind, loving and funny. It was a privilege to have her as our mum. She was also the best Grandma in the World and we miss her every single day. We hope you’re having fun with dad again. Sweet dreams both of you.

My Nana was so much more than just my Nana, she was the most incredible, caring, loving, selfless person I knew. It was and always will be an honour to be her granddaughter. Her love was like no other, her strength and faith unwavering through every single trial and tribulation. She was our Rai of sunshine and our light in the dark, so tonight we will be her light because she no longer can.
Love you until the end of time Nana, from ‘your girls’🤍

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

My dear Mum loved Christmas – it was her favourite time of year, bless her..
My father-in-law Keith was born on 23rd December – remembering him on his special day.

A light in memory of my mother who is dearly missed by all her family. Never forgotten xxx

Remembering my much loved husband , so sadly missed and thought about every day , I will love you forever and never forget you , sleep in heavenly peace my angel ……. Your Jackie ???????????? xxxx

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.

with you always.

Our first Christmas without you, we hope you can see this light shine for you at one of your favourite places. We all love and miss you xxx

Dear Nan, you were the light of our lives and the heartbeat of our family. Losing you so suddenly has left a void that can never be filled. Our lives will never be the same without you, but I promise you will never be forgotten nor will the ones you lost in your life either. Your love and kindness will always be with us, guiding us through the darkest times. Here's a message you can use:

Christmas was always your favourite time of year, and we will honour you by keeping all of our traditions alive. We will make sure to celebrate in true style, just as you would have wanted. Your spirit will be with us every step of the way, and we’ll cherish those memories as we come together as a family xx

These people meant a huge amount to me and provided light in my life and so I want to ensure they continue to provide light to others

You are dearly missed, may you forever rest in peace. We love you both

Love you and I know you’ll both be so proud of me! xx

Loving mother's and grandmothers and now great grandmothers. May they continue to shine in the afterlife as strongly as they did in life

Wendy is a friend I’ll never forget. She made such an impact on my family’s life. We will never forget her. William was the most lovely young man. He brought a smile to everyone’s faces and will always have a special place in my heart.

A wonderful husband, dad and grandad who is sorely missed. Xx

Constantly loved, forever remembered. Xx

Mum and Dad you always made Christmas such a special time. Love and miss you xx
