  • Happy Fathers Day DAD

    f roses grow in heaven Lord, then pick a bunch for me.
    Place them in my dad's arms and tell him they're from me.
    Tell him that I love and miss him, and when he turns to smile,
    place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for awhile. Happy Father's day!

    Dad miss and love you very much. Love Karen, Gary, Dylan and Evan xoxo

  • Another birthday without you, my darling Jimmy.....

    I think of you all the time, wishing that I could hold you in my arms again, or hear you voice. I miss you every day, but it seems especially difficult on special days, like Daniel's birthday, yesterday, or my birthday today.

    But, I take great comfort from the pictures I have of you, all around the house; I talk to you through them constantly, and I hope that you can hear me too!

    I love for all eternity, my darling, darling Jimmy

    Forever yours, Jeanette xox

    My Darling Jimmy,

    I love you so very, very much, and miss more than any words could ever express.

    You live in my heart, every second of every day, and that will never change. I cannot wait for the day when I feel your arms around me again, giving me one of those big bear hugs, like you always did!

    So until then, my darling Jimmy, keep safe and wait for me.........

    Forever yours, with eternal love,

    Jeanette

  • Thinking Of You Dad on your 2nd Anniversary

    To My Loving Father

    I wish heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice. I thought of you today but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake from which I'll never part. God has you in his arms, I havey ou in my heart. ♥ From your loving daughter Karen

    ps. Gary , Dylan & Evan are thinking of you today too.

  • We miss you every single day........

    Dearest Grandpa,

    Our lives have changed so much, in the past two years, since you left us. We talk about you all the time, remembering all the fun things we did together, and of course, all the rubbish jokes you used to tell!

    Rest assured, Grandpa, that we miss you dreadfully, but will love you forever.

    Evie & Daniel
