BILLY COLLINS

26th April 1948  -

30th September 2018.

Husband

God looked around his garden

and found an empty place,

He then looked down upon this earth

and saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you

and lifted you to rest,

God’s garden must be beautiful

He always takes the best.

He knew you were suffering,

He knew you were in pain,

He knew that you would never

get well on earth again.

He saw that the road was getting rough

and the hills are hard to climb,

so He closed your weary eyelids

and whispered “Peace be thine”.

It broke my heart to lose you

but you did not go alone,

for part of me went with you,

the day God called you home.

Sadly missed by your broken hearted

wife Dianne.

Love you forever and always.

My lovely brother Billy.

Remembrance is a golden chain

death tries to break,

but all in vain,

to have, to love and then to part

is the greatest sorrow

of one’s heart.

The years may wipe out many things

but this they wipe out never,

the memory of those happy days

when we were all together.

There is a link death cannot sever,

love and remembrance lasts for ever.

In the loving arms of

our Mum and Dad now Bill.

‘Till we meet again,

your heart broken sister Jean

and brother-in-law Peter. x x x

Brother

We will hold you in our hearts

and there you will stay.

Loving brother Roy,

nephew Gary and niece Zoe. x x x

Brother

Now at peace, my wonderful

loving brother (Willy).

Memories are the loveliest things

and we have loads of them,

they can’t get lost

they don’t wear out

and can’t be given away.

Our memories are deep and

precious they will stay.

Love you so very much.

You have left behind

so many broken hearts.

Goodnight, God bless.

Love Carol (Kay)

and brother-in-law Dave. x x x

Uncle

Although you sleep in Heaven now,

you’re not that far away,

hearts are full of memories,

you’re with me every day.

Love you Uncle Billy,

your loving nephew Jon. x x x

Uncle

Your memory is our keepsake,

with which we’ll never part.

God has you in His arms,

we have you in our heart.

We love and miss you dearly

Uncle Billy,

the girls will treasure you always,

forever our hero.

Love Emma, Mark, Harvie,

Frankie-Lulu and Marlie-Belle.

Our Dear Uncle

You’re not forgotten dear Uncle,

nor ever shall you be,

as long as life and memory last,

we will remember thee.

No one knows the silent heartaches,

only those who lost can tell

of the grief that’s borne in silence

for the one we loves so well.

All our love Vicky,

Jayne and Rich. x x x
