Remembering a much loved Father and Mother in Law this Christmas
Roy spent many happy years on his boat moored at Brayford Pool.
We remember him fondly as a charming and kind man, much missed by his family and friends.
A very brave mum, who always made Christmas special
She loved a Christmas sherry…or three!
We all miss you Daddy, you always made life more fun and interesting with your humour and talents. I love you and hope you can see your little Leonidas and keeping Orion company. Your family xxxx
JUST WISHING YOU WERE STILL HERE TO SHARE OUR MEMORIES TOGETHER
Think about and miss you every day. All my love Fiona xx
Remembering my mum Jeanie who is loved and missed by so Many x
My Grandma, who was an amazing, kind woman who made the best chicken pies that would put Delia to shame! She is missed every day.
Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen,unheard, but always near, Still loved,still missed
and forever near.
Forever in my thoughts Dad xxx
Christmas was always a special time between my Dad and I. Always big on traditions, we would go pick out a tree together, decorate it and the house whilst listening to Christmas music and eating mince pies!
This year marks 5 years since he passed away, and I have struggled to uphold these traditions the past 5 years, but I finally feel like I will be able to get back to them this year with the fond memories of Christmases past and smile knowing he would be happy that I can get back to enjoying a holiday that I have always loved.
Merry Christmas Dad. I love and miss you everyday. I hope that I do you proud with my Christmas tree choice!! 🙂 xxxx
Always talked about always loved so so missed
Forever in our hearts, we miss you so much!
Love Natasha, Ben, Rebecca, Tom, Evie, Jacob, Lacey and Watson

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.
Keith you were my light of my life xx
I’m watching you in the sky everyday .
Miss you so much dad .
Thinking of you this Christmas, thank you for sending us our precious baby girl ~ Ada Denise ~ to help heal our broken hearts.

Clemmie xxxx
