  • Happy Birthday Unc

    Another birthday without you! It was always such fun buying presents for you, trying to find the most ridiculous present that would make you laugh, and it never failed to work! It's so BO-RING (as you would say) buying sensible presents these days. I have bought a "Rich For Life" scratchcard to keep up the birthday tradition. It would be lovely to win, but we would give ANYTHING to have you back with us. All we have are fantastic memories of our favourite Uncle these days.....

    Love Louise xxxxx

  • Birthday Anniversary

    Treasured and happy memories of a brilliant brother and uncle who would have been sixty four years old today.

    The void that you left in all of our lives is as big today as it was on the day of your passing. You'll never know how much we love and miss you.

    Love you today, tomorrow and always,

    Judith xxxxxxxx

  • As Time Goes By

    As time goes by, we realise how muchwe miss our kind and loving brother (and brother-in-law). You were always thinking of others and nothing was too much trouble for you.

    We remember the timesyou drove

    the family down to see us and the laughs we had when you got here.

    We still make egg sandwiches in your memory.

    So sad we could not have had more time with you before you went so unexpectedly.

    Lots of love from Anthony and Alison,

    Lisa and Matthew

  • A whole year without you

    I can't believe its been a whole year since we last spoke. It seems like only yesterday we went to Toad Hall Garden Centre for bacon sarnies!

    I think of you constantly and miss you so much.

    Love you, Louise xxx

  • A Year Ago Today.

    It's been a year now since we lost you and the heartache seems to grow stronger with each passing day. We can no longer say "this time last year......" when reminiscing about you. Yes, we have so many happy memories of you Martyn but we'd trade them all just to have you back again creating even more.

    "If we could have one lifetime wish,
    One dream that could come true,
    We'd ask with all our hearts,
    For yesterday and you."

    Loving you and missing you today and always,

    Judith xxxxx

  • Remembering You

    This time last year we had coffee together. I had put a scratchcard in your Birthday card, and for a few fantastic moments we thought we were "rich for life"! However our hopes were soon dashed and we had been mistaken. Oh how we laughed about it looking back. You had been shopping for our Easter eggs that day -in January!!! (coz they were £1.00 each in Asda), and I teased you about it. I never thought a year on I would be visiting your grave....

    Missing you today and everyday...

    Love Louise xxxxxxx

  • Birthday Remembrance

    Remembering you Martyn on what would have been your 63rd Birthday.

    Eight months on and I still can't believe you've gone. Losing you has been so painful and you are constantly in my thoughts. We all share so many happy and fun filled memories of you that even though you are no longer with us, you are still making us laugh and smile!

    All my love, Judith xxxxxxxx

  • Always in our memory

    These last six months have been very sad but we always think of how you enjoyed life. It was so sad that it ended so early.

    Our thoughts will be with you for ever.

    Love from Anthony and Alison

  • Always in my heart

    It's been six months since we lost you.

    So why can I still hear you laugh? Why can I still see you walk past my mum's window and wave? Why do I still expect to hear your voice when I pick up the phone, and why is it your eyes I see when your cat looks into mine?

    I still can't believe you're gone. I miss you every singe day, and you are always in my heart.

    Love Louise xxxxxx
