Lyn and I didn't meet until our mid-40s and it turned out we had less than 8 years together, 4 of which were in the shadow of cancer until she passed away in November 2016. But in those 8 years she made me the happiest man in the world. We were married in 2011, just over a year before her diagnosis after which we still made the most of the time we had remaining. She never complained, never sought pity and a lot of people didn't even realise her situation until the last months when she had to give up work. The St Barnabus Hospice At Home team were the greatest source of help and support in that final period, and the day centre were too before and, for me, after that. I'll never be able to thank them enough.

A very special Wife, Mum and Nanna, who is missed more than she will ever know, two beautiful girls have joined us since you left us but we know you are with them every step of the way love you and miss you always. Sleep tight and sweet dreams.

I just remember how incredibly loving he was, I lived with them for a few yrs in my teenage yrs and it was the best yrs ever as I got to build a bind with my grandad many people don't get to build, he was just alway there x I miss his smell, I miss his face and I'm scared I will forget your voice ????

My friend Brigitte is from Australia and visited Lincoln every two years when she came to England for a holiday she was very dear to me we met on holiday in Whitby in 1997 and wrote to each other sadly on my birthday this year she passed away aged 66 I’ve just found out from a family member. Brigitte thank you for many years of happiness and our strong friendship I will treasure it forever. God bless you my dear friend xx

Always love you grandad

This was always your favourite time of year Mum, it’s so hard not having you here, but your memory will always live on by lighting a light and sharing your stories. I love and miss you so much Mum my Angel xxxxx

Dear Dad,
Each day I miss you and wish you were here
But how blessed am I to have so many precious memories that keep you near.
I listen for you in the music we enjoyed and shared
And, even though a tear may fall, my spirits are lifted and I know you're not far away at all.
Love you Dad – always.

First Christmas without my loving husband Denis, miss you every day, love you always. XxX

We miss you both dreadfully. Although we are happy you are both back together again. I think of you both every day and I’m so grateful I was there for you both. Keep shining that light down for me. Until we meet again we love you ❤️

Mum lives with us in our hearts every day of the year and is loved and sadly missed ❤️❤️❤️

Dad, you passed away 18th Oct 2020, you were our hero and the strength and backbone of our family.
Mum, you passed away 20th Dec 2020, you were always there for us when we needed to talk. We are all so shocked but understand that you didn’t want to be separated from dad after being together for 58 years.
We are devastated and in so much pain right now from losing you both, the only bit of comfort we have is knowing that you are back together, side by side where you belong. Please don’t worry about us, in time we will be ok and we will look out for one another like you’ll want us to do.
We will never forget you and everything you did for us, you will be missed so much and our lives from now on will never be the same.
Take care of one another mum and dad, we’ll see you again one day, sleep tight,
Your loving daughters,
Michele, Simone and Rosalind

You will always be in our hearts and we will raise a glass to you every Christmas Day.

We will remember our nanna because she helped Joe build his lego carousel last Christmas, because she made Evie two aprons, and the one with castles on it is her favourite, and for all the pennies she gave Joe and Evie every year for the advent calendars she made for them. We will so miss our Nanna this Christmas but we will love you forever. Joe and Evie xxxx

They say that time is a great healer but as the years pass I miss you more.You were both so very dear to me . You made my heart lighter ,my life brighter. My memories will never fade but I’d give the world for just one more hug.

Remembering a Mum / Nanny who passed away 25/11/2016

Love, like starlight, never dies xxxx Love you always, Mum

Happy Christmas to my King!
You were the best Dad in the world and I miss you everyday!
