HER SMILE WOULD LIGHT UP A ROOM. THE MOST SELFLESS AND CARING DAUGHTER ANY FATHER COULD ASK FOR. LOVED HER SO MUCH.
We are remembering my Grandad. An amazing trombone player in his day as well as a terrifically talented joiner. My Grandad was like a built in best friend. So funny, his smile and laugh just lit up the entire room. And I would always feel safe and secure whenever he was near, he just had a calming presence. He always reassured you that you would be fine and give you a big squeeze and you would instantly feel better. My grandad was so determined, this showed when he had a stroke when I was younger and he had to learn how to read, write and speak again and he did. He passed away two years ago now from falling on a rainy day and after all he had achieved recovering from those traumas, it left such a hole in our lives for him to be suddenly taken when he was so healthy. Our lives are definitely different without him as he was such a light and a joy. Everyone who met him says the same, he was just a force of nature. The best husband, father and grandad in the world.
We are also remembering my Granny (Grandad’s wife) unfortunately she passed when I was a baby so I didn’t get much time with her, which really upsets me but when I hear all the wonderful and also funny stories about her I truly feel like I know her so well. She was so kind, so creative, also a force of nature. She was very determined, she ran a restaurant whilst taking care of her family and just had so many feathers to her cap! She had an eye for detail. I wish I could have spent years on end with her, going around antique shops which she so dearly loved. She was a treasured wife, mother and Granny.
We are also remembering my Auntie Bridget. When my granny passed away Auntie Bridget sort of took on the role of Granny duties. And to this day , I can say she truly shaped who I am. She was so kind, so delicate, always fair. Auntie Bridget loved church and keeping her rosary beads close to her (which is something I like to do now because of her), everything in her home was perfect and beautiful. Some of the best memories of my childhood are school holidays at my Auntie Bridget’s. And walking through her front door and getting a whiff of her homemade chicken soup that she was cooking. Everyone who knew her, held a special place in their hearts for Auntie Bridget and that’s a fact. We miss her everyday.
And finally we are remembering my Granny Flynn (Auntie Bridget’s sister and my Mums Granny) she too passed when I was baby so I don’t have any memories with her and I so wish I did because of the stories I hear she was such a kind and wonderful person to know. I have one picture of her holding me when I was just born, I’m asleep in her lap and she is looking down at me just like an angel and she is so very gently holding my tiny hand with the tips of her fingers, the picture is so beautiful and special because although I never knew her that picture shows how much she loved me and how many memories we would have made together , the memories would have been wonderful. My mum describes her as so elegant and very much “a lady” and she was a huge part of my mum’s growing up, almost everyday they would see her, she was like a “second mum”. It just shows how treasured she was.
My mum loved Christmas but could be very last minute with the wrapping & delivery of presents, she enjoyed the baking and always took charge of the Christmas Dinner
To the best mum and nanny there ever was! Love and miss you loads Lucy and family
Much loved Husband, Dad and Grandad xxxx
An amazing wife, mum, granny and great granny.
Always in our hearts and always in our thoughts.
Miss you so much.
This will be the first Christmas without Rob, having been together for 52 years. He was lucky enough to spend his last 4 days in your hospice which I will be forever thankful. Keep up the good work St Barnabas, your amazing.
With everlasting nonstop memories and love to my dearest darling wife. Forever in my thoughts and dreams
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.
could you please send three separate cards and decorations as the sister one is for my aunty
Couldn't have looked after you like we did without the help from St Barnabas hospice staff they were amazing.
Always thinking of you dad, we love you so much and miss you everyday 🫶
