Eric was a special human being, he was the leader of our family. A role model that all could up to, who you could count on to check how you were and the only true representation of our family.

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

Grandad,
We especially miss you at this time of year, you loved Christmas and the excitement (and aggravation) that came with it. You were such a big part of our family christmases.
My fondest Christmas memories were staying at Grandma and Grandad's from Christmas eve until January!

Thank you for all the wonderful memories.
All our love Lizzie, Sean, Rupert and Felix xxxx

This is the first Christmas without Richard. I want to thank St Barnabas for all the amazing work they do and support they give to families going through similar situations to ours.

To our son, grandson & nephew Elijah, we love you so much. Thank you for teaching us true love, gratitude, happiness and giving us the confidence and courage to get through dark times. You are dearly missed and loved by all ❤️

To both my beautiful, kind, loving mother's & grandmothers thank you for supporting us in everyway shape and form, thank you for loving us beyond limits you are both dearly missed and loved ❤️

Thinking of our lovely parents especially at this time of year. Always loved, always remembered xxxx

Your forever in my heart.

My grandma collected on behalf of St Barnabas for many years prior to her sad passing. I spent the majority of my Christmas’s with her, sharing the festive day which normally ended with some games of scrabble, of course, she always won! In honour of all the work she did to help St Barnabas, I want to carry on her legacy by supporting this charity which was very close to her heart.

Happy first Christmas as a Nana to our beautiful Mum. We miss you now more than ever Mum. Xx

Best friend sadly missed x

A shining bright just for you! Always remembered and loved missed everyday! Love you dad love Carrie xx

Dearest Mum,

I miss you more than words can say
I miss you every minute of every day
I struggle to cope and understand
And wish that you could hold my hand
And help me through this time of struggle
And give me a kiss and a cuddle.
I hope and pray that once again
You are reunited with your beloved Jim.
I will do my best to make you proud
And always say your name out loud.
I will remember your words of support and advice,
And loving memories will always be part of my life.
I love you now, forever and always.

Love you loads
Linda xx????????

Two ladies who were earth angels. So kind and beautiful with gentle souls. I loved Christmas with Hilary my sister, we would shake and rattle presents to try guess what they were. Always hoped dinner would finish in time for top of the pops, so we could dance. My mum Ivy always cooked a splendid dinner and never asked for anything for herself.
Both together again.. Until we meet again, merry christmas beautiful ones.
All my love
Eileen

Jeannettes poem,

When you were with us you weren’t one for soft spoken words.
Any attempts at emotional conversation you’d effortlessly swerve.
If you were here now and you sensed this heart-pour.
You’d tell me to shush, sit down, to ‘close the door’.
We’d all sit in the lounge, all cosy and all warm.
Put a film on the TV, then talk through it all.
With a cat on your lap and the dog at your knees.
You’d pet and you’d fuss until I agreed ‘Aren’t they so pretty’.
We’d sit there for hours and put the world to rights.
Reminiscing and laughing about all the good old times.
Giggling at memories till the day turned to the dark.
Like the new haircut ‘chode’ or your day trip to the park….
Even at the end you were always true to you.
A fabulous diva, and you, through and through.
Walk past your reflection and your hair you would tease.
With your effortless style and you in your dungarees.
One thing is for certain, there’s no one quite like you.
Even treatment shakes were taken by champagne flute.

Now you are gone, and it’s time to say.
That you could bring sunshine to the darkest of day.
And although I never said it, you know what you meant to me.
My life lived with you is full of endless happy memories.
From little girls to little women, with you I have grown.
You have been there from the beginning, your home is now my home.
So I want to say Thank you, for everything you have done.
In my heart you are my family, you are an adopted Mum.
You have always been there so Goodbye is hard to say.
But I know I’ll see you again, on the other-side one day.
You’ll be holding hands with Dereck and Barbs, Molly and JellyBean too.
And I will get to tell you…. J-dog, I love you.

Thinking of you always

Missed so much, not just at Christmas. Those happy memories you left us with will last a lifetime x

We miss you and love you all so very much at Christmas and always xxxxxxxx

You are missed so much by so many
