'Where's the year gone, its slipped away
The hours seem to blur, night into day
They say it gets easier as the months and years pass by,
why then when my nana's mentioned, do tears sting my eye's
A thousand words can't bring you back
I know because I've tried
And neither will a million tears
I know because I've cried.
You left behind many broken hearts
and happy memories too
I never wanted memories...
I only wanted you.'
'Perhaps they are not
stars in the sky,
but rather openings
where our loved ones
shine down
to let us know they
are happy.'
'A gift for such a little while,
your loss just seems so wrong,
you should not have left before us,
it’s with loved ones you belong.'
'As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgement,
Courage and integrity?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best?
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us. '
GOD BLESS EVERYONE WHO HAS READ THIS AND LIT A CANDLE IT REALLY IS APPRECIATED THANKS XXXXXXXX

My Nana
Everyday stil doesn't seem to get any easier, even though we were told it would!!! I'm hoping one day to wake up and this was all a bad dream and you will come round the corner and back into our lifes. I still can't believe how long it had been, I just want you back in our life, it's not the same without you, a big hole is now in our life. But I know that where you are, that you are being looked after, but you should still be with us, so we can look after you!!
As you know I did the Race4Life. And I was really proud of the time I got, even though I didn't do any training, But I did this all for you, as I knew that you were watching over me, all I could think about the whole time I ran was you, I know that you will be really proud of me!!
We are taking care of Grandad, making sure that he is okay, and I'm taking good care of my mam, which I know that she misses you soooo much!
I love you soooo much that it hurts!!!!
LOVE YOU!!!!!
To my wounderful Mum and Nana
4 years have gone by, i we miss you so so much. I miss the times when we used to laugh and cry, i miss when we used to have family parties (they are not the same without you) there is such a big hole been left, never to be filled. I miss your cuddles, coz only you mum can give that cuddle that made a difference.
my dad is like a lost sole, its like hes lost his right arm, but you were his right arm. We have to take each day as it comes, coz we have too no other choice. I live off the good memories thats what keeps us going, and known that you are with us by our side step by step off the way through our lives.
I love you mam & nana, forever and always.

4 years ago 2day
We never knew that morning,
God was going to call your name,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
You did not go alone.
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories,
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same,
But when God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
