My mum, an incredibly bright, intelligent, strong & kind woman who placed helping others above and beyond herself. She is my inspiration and I continue to grieve each and every day. There are no words that can express just how much I miss you mum.

Not a day goes by that we don’t think of you, but Christmas brings your memory even closer. We can almost see you with a glass of red in hand, laughter lighting up the room just like you always did. You filled our lives with warmth, kindness, and joy — and that light still shines in our hearts. Cheers to you, always.

With love, from Mum and me x

My beautiful mum lost her fight for life in lincoln st barnabus hospice on 9th Jan 2020 aged 68 with me and her son and husband by her side. I held her hand tight as she took her last breath. My mum loved Christmas, even her last Christmas which she spent with her family even though she was very poorly. She managed to make Christmas special as she always did. I have so many memories but last Christmas I remember how brave and selfless she was, putting on a brave face for us all. New year 2019 I spent in A & E with mum, not knowing 9 days later I would lose her. Even then, she managed to make us laugh and her bravery shone through. To this day I still don't know how she did it. Mum….this year, Christmas for me is all about you. Wherever you are I hope you will look down and see my tree shining brightly and find us so you can be with us in spirit. I miss you so so much and I love you with everything I have. Always and forever mummy ♥ ❤ xxxxxxxxx

To mum
missing you so much .thank you for being there whenever I needed you . I know your looking down on me
All my love Martin xxx

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.

Missing you at Christmas and always 💙

With love to a very special husband, Dad and Grandad this Christmas xxxx

My mum passed away from cancer in spring this year aged 70 years old. I miss her dearly and am still rather shocked she is not going to be here this Christmas. She was a fantastic dancer and used to be a go go dancer back in the 70s. As she got into her 60s she started doing ballroom dances and going to dances every weekend. She loved dressing up in fancy outfits (usually a charity shop bargain). My children will miss their little nanny this Christmas. And I will miss my mum. My son (age 3) thinks she's gone to the moon. ???? From there she can watch over us.

To the sweetest, kindest Angel that was taken too soon, you will always be remembered with love and never forgotten xxx

Nan, not a day goes by that I don't think of you. Christmas was your favourite time of year so I hope you and grandad Reg are up there having the times of your life. Love you so much Nan. You were the best xxxxx

Missing you this Christmas and always

Whilst Dad didn't use the hospice in his lifetime he had many relatives that did and he was a big supporter of St Barnabas being a local lad. After such a tough year he will be missed at Christmas and we think this is a lovely way to remember him.

You were and still are and always will be the centre of my universe, my soul mate. I miss you every day and your Bah Humbug at Christmas xx

So many Christmas memories of the biggest kid of them all. So loved, so missed xxx
