Couldn't have looked after you like we did without the help from St Barnabas hospice staff they were amazing.

Scott, you are the brightest star I know and I hope you're shining bright in Heaven. Love you to the stars and back love from your little sister Fifi xx

Allan a very good friend who will be always remembered

Daniel, Not having you with us all to celebrate Christmas is not something we will ever get use to. This year our first without you will be so hard however Ethan, Harper and I will try to smile and fill it full of laughter like you would have done. Your sense of humour is what got us all through the hardest of times. We will all use this same outlook on life at Christmas to make it as special as it can be. You will be in our thoughts and in all that we do xx You are so missed, yet still loved so much xx

St Barnabes allowed us all as a family to have that quality time. The children were able to spend time with their Dad in a comfortable and safe setting. The staff went above and beyond for us all and embraced Dans wicked sense of humour. They made him feel safe and cared for him with such compassion and dignity. We were all looked after nothing was ever too much trouble. The most important thing they did was allowed us to have some extra time and memories.

Having a light shine in honour of Dan warms our hearts and gives us some comfort.

It was never goodbye but see you soon
Every day is a Dan day
Forever loved

Always Vicky, Ethan and Harper xx

Every

Knowing we can give back to them in this way helps us all feel we are doing something when a Thank you just isn’t enough for our gratitude.

Sending you all my love until we are together again .

I’m watching you in the sky everyday .
Miss you so much dad .

Always missed

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Barrie used to pretend he wasn't bothered about Christmas but deep down I know he did, being close to family and all the grandchildren is what made him the happiest, miss him and his silly ways so much and always will.

These four ladies are all very special and are still much loved and will always be missed remembered for their humour, kindness and unending hugs and love.
