Tim was a friend to everyone, kind, gentle and nothing was too much trouble.
Tim attended Lincoln City Foundation ladies walking football matches, not only to support his wife Caz but to give a everyone present a reason to smile. From picnics to a supporting hug Tim was always there, taking photos, giving a full briefing on the matches via social media and making us laugh.
Tragically following a short battle with the c word, Tim was taken from us too soon.
Tim leaves behind a devastated family, especially wife Caz, and a very upset and confused daughter (aged 6), who does not really understand where or why her daddy was taken and cannot return.
Christmas will be hard for the whole family, but with the support of many people, will make it as best as we can for them, and never forget Tim.

HER SMILE WOULD LIGHT UP A ROOM. THE MOST SELFLESS AND CARING DAUGHTER ANY FATHER COULD ASK FOR. LOVED HER SO MUCH.

Grandma looked forward to coming round for Christmas dinner every year, so this year me and my family have decided to keep with our traditional dinner, in honor of my Grandma, and keep celebrating Christmas for her. Family is what makes us stronger and we will always remember Linda for making us strongest.

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.

I will always remember how brave and strong she was.

Best friend sadly missed x

I miss you more and more each day Mum. The most amazing Mum and Grandma to my girls. Love you endlessly. Becki, Caitlin & Hollie x

Wonderful memories of great times spent together. Adrenalin-fuelled planning, 'who' was coming and 'when'? Last minute shopping a certainty! The fraught stages of prep forgotten as the day filled with love, laughter, and good cheer. Remembered now with great love as that Christmas Table shrinks, albeit gradually.

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.

Mum and Dad, sadly missed at Christmas time and always.

Our beautiful Ann, you fill our hearts with love.
We think of you everyday you gave us such wonderful memories.
You taught us to open our hearts and care for people.
Your smile would light up a room and we still feel your arms around us keeping us safe.
You will always be our shining light and our rainbow through the storm.
We will carry you in our hearts forever.

Thinking of you both everyday, you are now reunited. We love you both so much, love Gillian, David, Helen, Craig, Laura, Alice, Hannah, Alex, Harry xxxx

Miss you all everyday, until we meet again, so much love xx

My Mum always made Christmas so magical, we love and miss her more and more each year xx

For our dear friend Lyn
You were an inspiration and special friend to us all. You are talked about often and remembered always with love, laughter and tears. We miss you so very much.
Big Jugs, Little Jugs ????♥️????♥️
