Auntie Edna was an inspiration to me, and all that had the pleasure of knowing her. Despite challenges she faced, she always had a positive attitude, and such determination, strength and bravery that astounded us all. She had the kindest heart, the biggest smile and will be very missed by all that knew her. She always wanted to help others, enjoyed baking, especially rock cakes, which were amazing and has taught me so much and a real example of the woman I have become. We have so many amazing memories together, from being young in her garden watching the lilies blossom in her pond, baking all sorts of delights together to hours sat on the sofa chatting. She leaves a very big hole, however, I know her star is shining brightly above us.

For my lovely Mum Helen, you loved Christmas, and we all miss you, especially at this time of year. This will be the third Christmas you won't be with us, and it would have been your first as a Great-Grandma. May your light shine as bright on the tree as our love for you still shines. Love you always xx

Thoughts of a much loved husband and father.
Missed every day.

Miss you and love you always xx

Loved, missed and remembered always

Christmas has lost its sparkle for me since the loss of both my soulmate, David, and many of our respective family members. I still embrace the religious significance, but sorely miss our family getting together to enjoy this very special celebration.

Special thoughts of our dear daughter and sister Celina. Missed more than words can say. You are in our hearts forever. Love Mum, Sharon and family.

Dear Granny Grandad, Auntie Bridget, Great Granny and Grandad Flynn and Great Granny and Grandad McGregor, we all miss you very very much especially around a special time as Christmas when we wish you could all be with us. Some of you , Granny, Great Granny& Grandad Flynn and McGregor I’ve unfortunately never got to meet you but some of you may remember me as a tiny baby but I wish that I was blessed with time with all of you to really know what wonderful people you really were but luckily I feel so close to you and I have so many stories from everyone to learn so much about you all and I know you are always with me. Grandad, I got so many wonderful years with you but I’m still not over the fact you are no longer with us, the world was so much brighter with you in it. With your passion for music, your warm embrace whenever you gave me a hug, so tight but so warm. Your determination with everything you did and the fact you just were my best friend in the whole world. Christmas is very hard without you, you would always be helping around the house doing piles of ironing or helping mum with some DIY or suddenly on Christmas Day saying we needed to take the dining room door off ha ha, you were full of surprises. I miss you so very much and I love you, please kiss Granny for me and tell her I am always thinking of her. And Auntie Bridget, who basically became my Granny, you were a pillar in my life, you taught me so much about cooking, elegance and grace, you devotion to God was so admirable and really rubbed off on me. Your gentle voice and guidance in everything raised me to be who I am today. I miss you so much sometimes when I’m having a bad day all I can think of is how much I need you. But I know you are with me and i with you.
Merry Christmas to my wonderful family who are never forgotten and so happy in our thoughts.

Miss you both so much, not a day goes by without thinking of you and holding on to precious memories.
Till I see you on Claire Island.
All my love,
Manda. X

For Gavin, still loved & not forgotten x

Mum & Dad, loved and missed every day but more than ever at Christmas 🎄❤️♥️

My Pete, it's been 9 weeks now and I don't know where the days go or how I get through them. You told me I'd be OK, a strong woman you said. My heart is broken, my tears fall daily. Miss you so much and love you you to eternity. Shine bright always you were simply the best. All my love forever Di xxx

At Christmas we celebrate JOY to the World – without Jesus we would have no hope

Many happy memories of spending Christmas with special parents in Shropshire and Scotland, always missed , always loved????

This is in memory of my mum who always put family first. Christmas was always a special time for our family to come together.

My Dad loved a traditional extended family christmas day lunch. He always laid the table and did most of the washing up whilst myself and 2 sisters went for a walk with relatives.

Christmas was one of Pauline's favourite times of the year. She loved everything about it. Buying gifts and wrapping them. She loved spending time with family generally eating, drinking and being merry.
It has been 3 years in January since she passed away and it's not getting any easier. I miss her so much. XXX
