“TOM”

8th February 1924 – 8th January 2016

Dad

Straight through my heart

this fact today

by truth’s own hand is driven,

God never takes one thing away,

but something else is given.

Love you Dad. x x x

Your eldest son Reggie and Anita,

grandchildren Terry, Annabell, Sherrie

and great grandchildren. x x

Dad

We cannot bring the old times back,

when we were all together,

the family chain is broken now,

but memories last forever.

Son Alan and daughter-in-law Emma. x x

Grandad

Goodnight our shining star,

The brightest in the sky.

Love Kelsey and Tia. x x

Grandad

Today, tomorrow, our whole lives through,

We will always love and remember you.

Love Laura, Liam, Corbyn and Farrah. x x

Grandad

If tears could build a stairway,

And memories a lane,

I’d walk right up to Heaven,

And bring you back again.

Sleep tight grandad.

Love AJay and David. x x

Grandad

You have fallen from our family tree,

it was your time it was meant to be.

The legacy you leave will carry on,

but our tears for you in Heaven

will never be gone.

Love Carolanne, Gareth,

Aaliyah, Gary and Brooklyn. x x

Dad

There’s a special kind of feeling

when we think about you Dad,

It’s a pleasure to remember

all the happy times we had.

There’s a special kind of caring

that is meant for you alone,

there’s a place somewhere

within our hearts,

that only you can own.

Brokenhearted son Colin and Erica. x x

Grandad

Goodnight and God bless

Grandad Tommy,

Your loving grandchildren

Paul, Tammy, Stacey,

Anthony and Vikki

and great-grandchildren. x x

Grandad

With tearful eyes we watched you suffer,

And saw you fade away.

Although we loved you dearly,

We could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,

you may have left us but

you will always be remembered.

You are now looking down on us all

hand in hand with our Nan.

Rest in peace my Grandad,

a true gentleman.

Love you always,

Young Ronnie.

Grandad

You’re probably looking down

from Heaven above,

sending out smiles with days

of sunshine and showers of love.

R.I.P. my beautiful Grandad.

Love Ischa and kids. x x

Daddybear

Oh Daddybear the time has come

for you to part this earth.

No more suffering,

no more pain,

you and Mum together again.

Go explore the wonders the

universe has to offer.

Til we meet again,

I love and miss you Daddybear.

You are always in my heart,

Love Sandie and the Tribe. x x x

My Dad, My Friend

We were with you till the end.

Loving son Eddie, Tracey,

Chloe and Jack x x x

Grandad

I will miss the smile from your face.

I am so sad but I know you are

with Nan and that makes me glad.

Love you always, Cleopatra. x x

Dad

Dad I love you more than

words can say,

I will miss you more and more

each and every day.

I know you’re back with Mum now

but I wish that you could stay,

I know in my heart that

we will meet again one day.

Broken hearted son Georgie. x x

Grandad

Goodnight, God bless Grandad.

You will be sorely missed.

All our love forever and always.

Wesley, Gennavieve, Becca,

Chantelle, Amelia-Grace and Lucas. x x

To My Dad

We are going to be so lost

without you Pop.

To wish you here would be

my selfishness.

No greater person earned

their place in Heaven,

the pride, love and respect for you

like no other.

Feeling lonelier with you gone Pop,

but my heart has you now

with Mum and Jan,

safely locked away till we are all

together again.

Lots of hugs Dad,

 forever and always,

Love Tommy. x x

Grandad

So Grandad we will say goodbye,

and we ache within our hearts,

but as long as we have our memories

we will never be too far apart.

And so the time has finally come,

you’re free just like a dove.

We smile inside when we think of you,

re-united with your true love.

All our love Grandad,

from your grandchildren

Carl x, Gary x, Tommy x,

Jamie x and Callie x,

and great-grandchildren

Abbie x, Jordan x, Megan x, Jackson x,

Tommy x, Luca-Ben x and Gracie-Mae x

and great-great-grandchild Jacob.  x

Grandad

I can’t believe the big man

has signed off,

I want to pay tribute to the

People who cared for my Grandad,

It was a super human effort carried

out with such love,

commitment and dedication.

There are no words to do justice

to what you all were a part of.

So long big guy,

I’ll see you when I get there.

Love always,

Tommy and Rovina.

Dad

I am so proud to be able

to call you my Dad.

Re-united with Mum.

Your loving son

Ronnie and Sheila,

grandkids Ronnie, Ray, Sonia,

Jamie, Terry, Keith, Sonny,

Rachel, Amy, Carla,

Tina and Tony.

May God bless you Dad. x x

Grandad

Don’t think of him as gone away,

his journey’s just begun,

life holds so many facets,

this earth is only one.

Just think of him as resting,

from the sorrows and the tears,

in a place of warmth and comfort,

where there are no days and years.

Think of how he must be wishing,

that we could know today,

how nothing but our sadness,

can really pass away,

and think of him as living,

in the hearts of those he touched,

for nothing loved is ever lost,

and he was loved so much.

Sleep tight next to Nan.

Love always,

Ray and Sonia. x x

Great-Grandad

I’m sending a dove to Heaven,

with a present on it’s wings,

be careful when you open it

it’s full of wonderful things.

It’s filled with a million kisses,

and filled with a thousand hugs,

all tied up with a ribbon,

and sent with all our love.

R.I.P legend.

George, Jack, Ray, Charleigh,

Dan, John, Cameron, Ellie,
