daughter and we will never get over her pasing. my daughters taisha and sasha used to call her bigga
nana!!! n used to help her!!!
she was 82 when she died in manchester royal infirmary on march 19th 2000. it was the darkest day
our lives when god took her away from us.
she lived in salford all her live and often moved from house to house lik a gypsy lol
she suffered diabetes in later life triggered by the passing of her eldest son georgie and this was
a contributing factor to her passing.
she was in a wheelchair and my mam used to take her out a lot . on a sunday you would find my mam
pushing my nana round salford car boot where she would buy anything haha mainly ornaments. she had a
lovely little flat and it was her pride and joy. when her son anthony took her on the car boots he
would just flit passed all the stalls and she would moan to my mam about it. she always came to my
mams for her dinner on sunday and while my mam was cutting up the lamb my nan used to nik a bit
haha. i miss all these memories and a whole lot more. now when we go to me mams for dinner my mam
gives one of my girls a piece of lamb and they take it in the living room, hold it up to her picture

mean a lot to us x thank you X WE ALL MISS U NAN XX
On the road that all must tread,
you have travelled on ahead.
Out into the morning light,
out of earshot, out of sight.
But never very far away,
because, every hour of every day,
On the wings of memory,
something brings you back to me.
Some simple and familiar thing,
will start my heart remembering,
The times we had, the good, the bad,
the days, the years, sweet things and sad.
A song, a joke, a cup of tea,
something brings you back to me.
On the road that all must tread,
you have travelled on ahead.
Out into the morning light,
out of earshot, out of sight.
But never very far away,
because, every hour of every day,
On the wings of memory,
something brings you back to me.
Some simple and familiar thing,
will start my heart remembering,
The times we had, the good, the bad,
the days, the years, sweet things and sad.
A song, a joke, a cup of tea,
something brings you back to me
Mum, I'm frightened I might forget your face,
Your loving smile, your warmth, your grace
Your hands that held me, oh so close
These are the things I'm missing the most..
Mum, I'm frightened I might forget your thoughtful ways
Caring, & unselfish, thinking of others, every day
The many ways you enriched my life - the best of mothers
You taught me to know right from wrong and to see good in others.
You have left me and I thought you'd never die
It makes me sad and hurts so much, that I begin to cry
Oh Mum, I love you and know that you loved me
Is it true that you can see me and are you proud of me?
I'd give the world to see you once again
To tell me of another life, a life without pain
A better world, than we've ever known
A Heaven, where we are all God's own.
One more chance to hold your hand, or touch your skin
It's warmth and softness, felt so comforting
Once more to see your smile and hear your laugh
But for this, I need more, much more, than a photograph.
I visit your grave and silently pray
That we will meet again some day
The tears still fall unexpectedly
When I am alone with my memories.
I know memories may see me through this time of sadness
And although it's hard to think of you with any gladness
I want to thank you for your unending love
And hope you are safe in the arms of the Lord above.
My love for you Mum, will never die
Even if my heart's heavy and I often cry
Living my life without you, I feel very alone
But I survive by thinking of you looking down.
Goodnight dear Mum and God bless
I'll try to make my life a success
So you won't feel that I've let you down
I'll love you forever, the best Mum ever known.
When I see the bright summer skies
I remember the sparkle in Nans loving eyes
When I feel the summer sun up above
I remember the warmth we found in her love
In times of trouble who was there?
Nan!!! with the love she wanted to share
When I was down and feeling blue
She was always there to cheer me up too
As I sit and think back to when I was a kid
I cant help but smile at the things that she did
I remember the hugs tucked up in her bed
The tea and biscuits and sugar on bread
The family all there, Her little buds
As she sits with her knife peeling the spuds
Steak and onions and gravy and dipping our bread
\\\"There is no one better\\\" is what we all said
I cant help but remember all the yesterdays
and take time to think of her sweet loving ways
Loving eyes, warm heart and a soft little grin
Expressing the love she felt for us, her kin
Through memories, pictures and stories we swear
that a place in our hearts for you is there
Peace be upon you, your work here now is done
as we remember you as granddaughter or son
I look around now and feel so much grief
so much love in this room, its hard to believe
I have to say shes loved in the only way I can
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE LIKE OUR NAN!!!
I Can’t Tell You Sweetheart
How Many Tears I’ve Cried
Since The Day I Was Told
My Precious NANA Had Died
It Seems Impossible
Although I Know It’s True
Because Everything I See
Reminds Me Of You
I Still Hear Your Laughter
See The Smile On Your Face
I Would Have Lost My Sanity
If Not For God’s Saving Grace
I Have To Close This Letter Now
But This Is Not Good-bye
For You Will Forever Walk Softly
In My Heart And In My Mind
Loads of love forever
I miss you more than anyone knows
As time goes by the emptiness grows
I laugh, I talk , I play my part
But behind my smile is a broken heart.
If all the world was mine to give,
I would give it, yes and more
To see the face of the one I love
Come walking to my door...
PLEASE LIGHT A CANDLE OR TRIBUTE XXXXXX
♥***♥***♥***♥***♥***♥***♥***♥***♥
Prayer of Faith.
We trust that beyond absence there is a presence.
That beyond the pain there can be healing.
That beyond the brokenness there can be wholeness.
That beyond the anger there may be peace.
That beyond the hurting there may be forgiveness.
That beyond the silence there may be the word.
That beyond the word there may be understanding.
That through understanding there is love.

Quietly I Weep
By Lyndie Sorenson
Although I seem to hide it
My sorrow's still so deep
Missing you in silence
Quietly I weep
I long to see your smile
Hear your laughter, hug you tight
But you're no longer with me
You've headed toward the light
I'm sure you are quite happy
Here on earth I miss you so
Asking that same question
Why was it you that had to go?
I am sure there is an answer...
One that might make sense
When others offer reasons
I'm just on the defence
If they could understand me
Know how hard life is with grief
Just hold my hand and listen...
That would be a great relief
Although I seem to hide it
My sorrow's still so deep
Missing you in silence...
Quietly I weep

♥ Only we who grieve ♥
♥ Tis only we who grieve
♥ They do not leave
♥ They are not gone
♥ They look upon us still
♥ They walk among the valleys now
♥ They stride upon the hill
♥ Their smile is in the summer sky
♥ Their grace is in the breeze
♥ Their memories whisper in the grass
♥ Their calm is in the trees
♥ Their light is in the winter snow
♥ Their tears are in the rain
♥ Their merriment runs in the brook
♥ Their laughter in the lane
♥ Their gentleness is in the flowers
♥ They sigh in autumn leaves
♥ They do not leave
♥ They are not gone
♥ tis only we who grieve.

♥ I Believe ♥
(Written By Skip Ewing and Donny Keyes Copyright 2002)
(Song performed by Diamond Rio)
Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And it's like you haven't been gone
A moment from my side
Like the tears were never cried
Like the hands of time are holding you and me
And with all my heart I'm sure
We're closer than we ever were
I don't have to hear or see
I've got all the proof I need
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe
That when you die your life goes on
It doesn't end here when you're gone
Every soul is filled with light
It never ends and if I'm right
Our love can even reach across eternity
I believe, I believe
Forever you're a part of me
Forever in the heart of me
I will hold you even longer if I can
The people who don't see the most
Say that I believe in ghosts
And if that makes me crazy
Then I am
'Cause I believe, oh I believe
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, oh I believe
Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And I believe
'Cause I believe, oh I believe.

☼ The Sea and the Beach ☼
(Tessa Wilkinson)
The sea seems to illustrate pain and sorrow so well
It comes in and goes out
For a while it is there, overwhelming, covering everything
Then slowly the tide turns and it withdraws
For a while we can see the beauty of the shells, the seaweed
We can rejoice in the patterns in the sand
We can feel the corrugated ripples under our feet
Alive to what is around, and beyond
But then the tide turns and again it is all washed away, all overwhelmed
We feel like the crashing of the waves on rocks
Raw and out of control
Full of anger and rage
Battered and bruised
Tossed about like flotsam floating wherever we are thrown
There are so many questions. Why now? Why her?
But no answers
Then the sea calms and gently the waves lap the rocks
We are soothed and the inner turmoil is calmed
In time we can learn to move up the beach as the tide comes in
Out of its reach
Not to be overwhelmed
The pain is still there, but in control
We can recognise the pain
Revisiting the sadness
Acknowledging how much the person is missed
We learn to turn away and look to the future
Knowing the person will always be part of us
Always loved and always remembered.

~~ The Angels ~~
May angels rest beside your door
May you hear their voices sing
May you feel their loving care for you
May you hear their peace bells ring
May angels always care for you
And not let you trip and fall
May they bear you up on angels wings
May they keep you standing tall
May they whisper wisdom in your ear
May they touch you when you need
May they remove you from each trace of fear
May they keep you from feeling greed
May they fill you with their presence
May they show you love untold
May they always stand beside you
And make you ever bold
May they teach you what you want to know
About life here and here-after
May they fill you always with their love
And give you the gift of laughter
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
~~ Angel In My Pocket ~~
I am a tiny angel
I'm smaller than your thumb
I live in peoples pockets
That's where I have my fun
I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect
Though i'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met
Before I was an angel...
I was a fairy in a flower
God himself hand picked me
And gave me angel power
Now god has many angels
That he trains in angel pools
We become his eyes and ears and hands
We become his special tools
And because god is so busy
With way too much to do
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you
When he tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with angel care
Then told me to never leave you
And I vowed always to be there
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
~~ Guardian Angels ~~
When angels sense you need them
and angels always do.....
they come unseen from everywhere
to help and comfort you
they hover close beside you
till all your cares are gone
till they can see you're ready
once again to carry on
Then some of them may fly away
and take their gentle touch
to other hearts that need
the love of angels very much
but one at least stays with you
as your constant friend and guide
for guardian angels never leave
they're always at your side
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
Lots Of Love Always ~~ Elaine...x♥x

~ Immeasurable (by Sean Ashcroft) ~
Laughter will still sound,
even though you’re gone.
But the decibels will dip,
with some smiles, painted on.
Hopes will still soar,
dreams float on high.
But the altitude will drop,
as will the supply.
Passion will still drive us,
desire wave us off.
But the revs will decline
and the engine might cough.
Time will be bejewelled,
lives lit by waltzing light.
But the carats will diminish,
its brilliance a lesser sight.
Yet memories have no volume,
love no mass nor weight.
These will broaden, widen, deepen,
a true measure of something great.
*♥* *♥* *♥* *♥* *♥* *♥* *♥* *♥* *♥* *♥*
~ Life Beyond ~
Let them go, but not completely.
Hold on to them, but not too tightly.
Love them as you know you will,
as you always have.
Rejoice that they are well, the only difference
now is that you cannot see them,
But you feel them still and they will always be with you.
The spirit does not die as the body dies
and Love is of the spirit.
Nothing you have experienced together can be taken from you.
And your loved one shall be eternally yours in that love.
Weep not too long, that they may also cry,
But rejoice in their life and in yours also.
Let yours continue to be a celebration of all life; of your shared love,
Knowing that God holds you both in the palm of his hand
And in loving you both shall reunite you.

•♥ Heaven ♥•
A silver thread that keeps me near
To those I love and hold so dear,
Will someday slip, and I'll swim free.
A soul afloat in a bounteous sea.
I'll also soar in maddening glee,
To places unseen by you and me.
Through darkest night and brightest day,
I'll fly to a far and magical bay.
In ethereal havens of love and peace,
My God-given life will never cease.
The passing of time will be obsolete ...
Travelling the auras, no great feat.
Don't you grieve, notice the sound
Of my songs to you with love abound.
I'll never leave you, don't you see?
I'll live with you, eternally!

ღ♥ღ Till Healing Comes ღ♥ღ
My heart is closing deep inside
from all the pain I feel;
while others are so full of joy
my hurt feels very real.
I want to find a bit of light
but part of me feels dead,
and though I see the joy around
my soul is sad instead.
It's hard to enter deeply in
when you're no longer here.
It's like the lights have all gone out
and won't be lighting up this year.
And so this year I must be
just how it is I am.
So that soon my heart can heal
I'll do the best I can.
The only thing that I can do
is to stay present in the now,
to feel my grieving pain
and trust I'll heal somehow.
As this year gently comes
and as my heart is torn in two.
I'll open just a little bit
as I'm deeply missing you.
I'll trust the gift of life that's here
and trust that I'm ok,
and be with how it is right now...
..till healing comes my way.
