Missing my family and dear friends every day and especially at Christmas time.

So many special memories of such an amazing Mum xx

On Angels wings' you were taken away.
But in my broken heart you will always stay.

We miss you and thinking of you always

Merry Christmas Mum, not a day goes by without us thinking about you

Always and forever in my heart, Not only at Christmas, Everyday. They say it gets easier.. with time.. It doesn't and whilst I've had a few Christmas's without you Dad, It’ll be my first without you both, Hopefully Ryan has found his way, to you, back in your arms. Forever 27, My Son I love you always❤️

This will be my first Christmas without my beloved Florence, and I sadly miss her with all my heart. I know that this is what Florence would have wanted as St Barnabas made her last days comfortable.

Remembering a very special brother, Uncle who is deeply missed but never forgotten.
Love you lots
Your dear sister Sarah and brother in law Jon and Nephew Sam

I miss my family everyday but more so at christmas xxx

Dear Harry , we remember you at Christmas time and every day and know you are with us, daddy loves you very much , until we meet again ❤️ lots of love Daddy, Daizy, Rachel , and all the family . Xxxxxxxxxxx

In memory of our much loved family. How we long to turn back the clock to years past when we were all together. Love and miss you all every day Dawn and Mick xxxx

Miss you more than words can say. We love you and should have told you more x

When you left us, you did the most amazing thing. You gave life and sight to others. You were always so kind and thoughtful and this was reflected in your gift, even after you had gone. I hope the recipients are happy, healthy and are loved. Perhaps one day we will hear from them but until then, know that we are proud to call you our mum. Love you my mummy x

They all went too soon and leaving a hole in our lives but also a huge amount of happy memories. The pain we feel at their loss represents the huge love we have for them.

We remember them frequently: with a smile, a tale retold, a song they loved, a phrase they used and how they made our lives richer. They may not be here in body but they remain with us in our hearts x

For my loving husband who always enjoyed Christmas, this was his most favourite time of the year.

Dearest Dad, Grandad and Great Grandad,
In our hearts forever. You are missed each and everyday. Loved and remembered always. Julie, Alan, Luke, Gemma, Leon, Markus, Mollie, Graeme, Lois and family x x

Dad, always in our hearts and still so missed. Thank you for all the comfort that you give us by knowing you are still watching over us all.
Love Kara, Lisa, India and Taylor. XXXXXX

Remembering my mum Jeanie who is loved and missed by so Many x

Hello, I have made a kind donation in memory of my amazing mum, Sarah and would love to share her story.

My mum was cared for by St Barnabas hospice, and stayed in the inpatient unit November-December 2024. At the age of 38 she had been diagnosed with a rare, incurable form of genetic lung cancer. Her short battle with cancer was terrible for us all to see, but the incredible care she received at your hospice meant the world to us.

One of the last memories we ever made with our mum was watching the torchlight procession together outside the unit. The staff assisted in bundling my mum up in blankets and fluffy socks and wheeled her outside to watch the light walk with her family and children. There were tears, smiles, laughter, kind words and hugs from those passing by. I am heartbroken yet honoured to be participating in the walk this year in honour of my mother.

On the 4th of December, the staff set up their conservatory to allow us to spend one last Christmas Day as a family. We laid presents under the beautiful tree, played music and ate a Christmas dinner and cakes brought in by family. My mum was able to watch her young boys and teenage girls open the presents she’d picked out for them earlier in the year, alongside being spoilt herself with lots and lots of bracelets, teddy bears and skincare! The nurses were constantly on hand to assist with pain management and ensuring my mum was comfortable throughout the day.

The staff gave it their all, from washing, brushing and drying mum’s hair to being there for a broken family in the worst moments of their life. They went above and beyond to allow us to make those last memories. The nurses constantly spoke to me and my siblings and ensured we were staying as strong as possible! Mandy stayed with us as my mum took her last breaths and I’m forever grateful that we had her support and guidance, and that she showed my mum complete compassion and gentle care right up until the end.

My mum was treated with respect and dignity until the moment she left your unit. She loved the yummy food, joking around with her nurses and watching the squirrels and birds from her window. It felt like home.

Thank you St Barnabas, we will always keep your charity close to our hearts. You have made a huge difference to our lives.

For Gary, the biggest kid at Christmas so many brilliant memories of Christmas together. Loved and missed every day but more than ever at Christmas. Special kisses for grandad from Brooke, Blake, Sebastian and Elody xxxxx

I will always remember his loving and caring personality

Gone, but never forgotten!
Our first Christmas without you.
We Miss You & Love You
Darren, Pauline, Jack, Abi & Archie, James & Grace.
