NEVER FORGET.XX

ALTHOUGH WE SMILE
AND MAKE NO FUSS
YOUR DEEPLY MISSED BY ALL OF US,
NOBODY KNOWS THE GRIEF WE BEAR
WHEN WE ALL MEET AND YOUR NOT THERE

THOUGH YEARS HAVE PASSED
SINCE THAT SAD DAY
YOU CLOSED YOUR EYES
AND SLIPPED AWAY,
THE LEAVES WILL FALL
THE SUN WILL SET,
BUT THOSE WHO LOVED
WILL NEVER FORGET.

missing you so much .......

You were a precious gift from God above,
so much beauty, grace and love.
You touched our hearts in so many ways,
your smile so bright even on the bad days.
You heard God's whisper calling you home,
you didn't want to go and leave us alone.
You loved us so much, you held on tight,
till all the strength was gone and you could no longer fight.
He had called your name twice before,
you knew you couldn't make him wait anymore.
So you gave your hand to God and slowly drifted away,
knowing that with our love we will be together again some day.

LOVE ALWAYS XXXXXXX GOODNIGHT SWEETHEART

We do not need a special day to bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake we know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache as we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly; in death we love you still.

There will always to be a heartache, and often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory of the days when you were here.
If tears would make a staircase, and heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven and bring you home again.
We hold you close within our hearts; and there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives until we meet again.
Our family chain is broken now, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again

nite maureen my love to you xxxxxxxxxxxx

thank you

wont to share this poem today
with some dear friends
all so true
i wont to thank you for
everything you do
the pictures you leave in
the gallery and the candles
you light each day

and help me on my way
god bless you

Thinking of you.XXX

I was loved, therefore I am,
And in being loved, I am treasured.
When I peeled away my layers,
And all that was left was my essence,
The bareness of me,
I was still loved.
I was loved, therefore I am,
And in being loved I was able to grow.
In my mistakes held,
In my successes celebrated,
I was always loved.
I was loved therefore I am,
And in being loved I learned to love.
In the sun filled day,
In the ecstasy of the night,
I was loved and loved others.
To be loved is all you need:
I was loved....and so, I will always be.

Although words seem to say so little,
I hope they help in some small way
to ease the sense of loss
that you’re experiencing today.

Hold fast to your memories
to all of the cherished moments
of the past,
to the blessings and the laughter,
the joys and the celebrations,
the sorrow and the tears.

They all add up to a treasure
of fond yesterdays
that you shared and spent together,
and they keep the one you loved
close to you in spirit and thought.

The special moments
and memories of your life
will never change.
They will always be in your heart
today and forever more.

Goodnight Maureen my love to you xxxx

I had a dream early this morning, one of those really weird muddled up kind that we all have now and then...but you were in it Paula, I touched your skin and you were warm, I looked into your beautiful bright eyes and you were so alive, it felt so real, I was so happy to see you.... but then I woke up and the hurt and the tears came flooding back because you were gone, I miss you so much,

My sister dealt with cervical cancer with the utmost dignity and courage we all admired.

My special sister, I want you to know how much you mean to me.
My special sister had strength and courage her whole family could see.
My special sister, through all her pain, never once gave up or complained.
My special sister had dignity, warmth, and inner beauty that can't be explained.
My special sister, with all she was going through, always thought of others.
My special sister always took time to give of herself to friends, sisters and brothers.
My special sister was always there with her kind thoughts, deeds, and caring.
My special sister is well known and loved for her capacity for sharing.
My special sister needs to know how much she means to those who love her, especially me.
My special sister's strength, courage, and beauty are a shining example for all to see.
My special sister had carried a heavy burden for quite a while.
My special sister would not allow us to share any of her pain but always her smile.
My special sister was surely a guardian angel sent from above.
My special sister, these heartfelt words are for you, from all of us who care, with all our love.

I stood by your bed last night;
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.
I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
'It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here.'
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached to me.
I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today; you tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I flew with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently landed on you; I smiled and said, 'it's me.'
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, 'I never went away.'
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say 'good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning.'
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll fly across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me.
