My John was a beautiful man inside and out.He loved music,snooker,dancing, his family and friends
but most of all life.When he was told he had bowel cancer 8 years ago he did not give in to it he
just carried on had his operation to remove the tumour then went for chemo,which he hated but did
not moan about because he wanted to live so much.The cancer returned 4 years ago in his lungs,that
did not stop him enjoying life he just carried on as normal,still went for a pint with his
friends,went to Skeg for all his holidays to our caravan which he loved.He made a lot of friends at
the city hospital oncology clinic which he was calling his second home.The only moan he had over the
years was when he had to start having injections every day to thin his blood because of blood clots
in his leg.In the last 2 years of his life he had a lot of illness and the cancer returned in is
bowels which was removed again.He took ill again in November with a massive bleed on the brain,this
time the illness beat him and he died peacefully in the City hospitals hospice Hayward House.I would
like to thank all the staff of Hayward House and all the staff at the oncology clinic for the
fantastic care and friendship you gave John he loved you all.A special thank you to Dr Wilcock,Dr
Potter and her team,Carol,Tracey and all the girls,THANK YOU.I will miss you and love you for the
rest of my life John,thank you for being my partner and my love for so many years.LOVE YOU FOREVER.
PS. He did have a big moan in his life he hated waiting,whether it was for treatment,trains,buses
whatever he hated waiting.


In Loving Memory Of My Dad, My Hero, My Friend.

Dad, you were my hero
from beginning to the end.
I admired with much love
and respect.

Dad, you were a remarkable man
In all things great and small..
Dependable, loving and caring.
You one in a million.

Dad you were a perfect man
At least you were to me..
And whatever faults you might have had,
My eyes could never see.

Dad, you were my teacher
What a brilliant mind you had..
You taught many things,
that endure forever more in my heart.

Dad, you've passed on to the other side
Though I wish you could be here with me..
You're irreplaceable and unforgettable
The best dad there could ever be.

With love always, I remember you,
With fond memories, I think of you..
With hope I believe we'll meet again.
Rest in Peace, Dear Dad, Always.
By Yvonne L.
From Kerrie.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For John from Carol
I wish that I could see you
Just for one more day
Hold you close to my heart
And never let you slip away

I wish that I could kiss you
And say all I want to say
I'm hurting now John
Since you went away

There will never be another
Not like my dear John
I miss him like no other
Now that he is gone

TODAY AND ALWAYS XXXXXXXXX

Angelversary Day~ SENT WITH LOVE FROM HALINA XXX


This day is Angelversary
A gathering of love
To celebrate your precious one
Now safe in heaven above
May whispers from the heaven's
On this your angel's day
Touch your soul with all you need
So you're loved in every way



An angelversary so special
Of memory, delight
Thinking of your sweetheart
The beauty of their life
God bless you every moment
And hold you very near
In remembrance of your dearest
Nevermore to fear



There's angels singing for you
The light of heaven glows
'Tis only just a little while
With them you will be home
May heaven's window open
(Where your beloved waits)
With all God's peace to comfort
Your angelversary day



I spent a day of total peace
with the shore, the sky, and sea.
And I've felt down deep inside my heart,
how much my Lord loves me!

In Memory Of You
*******************

We want to always remember
The beautiful life you lived
And keep alive the memories we have
Through remembering what you did

For you're so special to all of us
A wonderful person indeed
Your love, laughter and warm smile
Reflected a heart that believed

Just in the everyday things we do
We remember your faith and love
In the words you spoke to help us through
Is a continued reminder for us

Although we miss you so very much
We know we'll see you once more
For this is the hope we have in God
Being re-united in the Lord

And as we gather we'll continue to share
Special times we went through
For these are memories that warm our hearts
As we honour the memory of you
unknown.

Thoughts Today Memories Forever LOVE THERESA XXXXXXXX

Theresa M Last night

CAROL!!!

can’t comprehend just how sad you must feel
For the loss of someone you love.
This sorrowful time must still feel unreal
And you’re looking for strength from above.

I hope, from my Heart, that your pain will decrease,
That your spirit will gain strength again,
And I pray that your faith will create inner peace
And that God will send blessings–Amen.

Till then, if you need me to lighten your load,
I’m waiting to come to your aid.
Just call on me, and I’ll walk down that road,
Until the dark times start to fall

Love always,Lynn.xxx

When you feel you miss me most,
As time goes drifting by,
Each memory will prove to you,
That love can never die,
That while I left you far too soon,
I did not go alone,
For the Father sent his Angels,
To gently guide me home,
Take comfort when you think of me,
Keep my love deep within your Heart,
And with the warmth of each memory,
We will never be apart.

LOVE FOR THE WEEKEND FROM ANNEMARIE XXXXXXXXX

God's Heavenly Garden



Sometimes God picks the flower that is in full bloom:
sometimes the rosebud's chosen that we
feel He's picked too soon.

Sometimes the flower is fading with petals
floating down, but God knows the perfect time
to gather flowers from the ground.

There is a heavenly garden in which God takes
great pleasure because He's placed within it the
loved ones that we treasure.

He walks among the blossoms giving them eternal
rest, and I know that it must please Him because
He chose the very best.

♥Love Lives On♥

(Amanda Bradley)

♥Those we love
are never really lost to us -
we feel them
in so many special ways-
through friends
they always cared about
and dreams they left behind,
in beauty that they added to our days...
in words of wisdom we still carry with us
and memories that never will be gone...
Those we love are never really lost to us -
For everywhere their special love lives on♥

My broken Heart..
Will never mend
So lots of kisses..

We think of you..
In a better place
With beautiful wings..
And a smile on your face

Every day is a struggle you see
Trying to cope..
So please help me

How do I cope?
I do not know
My Heart is broken..
So that goes to show

I can't accept you are gone
