BALLANTYNE Peacefully, after a long illness, on 26th August, 2008, at Wishaw General Hospital ANNIE MOORE (Shaw), aged 72 years. In tears I watched you sinking, I watched you fade away, My heart was almost broken, You fought so hard to stay, I sat beside your bedside, I held your hand in mine, I watched, I waited, I hoped in vain, That God would make you well again. Love you always. - Adam x. Lord put your arms around her, And keep her in your care, Make up for all she suffered, And all that was unfair, May she always walk in sunshine, And God's love around her flow, Of the happiness she gave us, No one will ever know. - Betty, John, Henry, Geraldine, Robina, Tom, David, Yvonne, Carol, Colin, Richard and Ellie. Behind our smiles, There's a million tears, For the Gran we lost, And loved so dear, Our hearts still ache, As we whisper low, "God Bless you Gran, We miss you so". - Gillian, Claire, Leigh-Ann, Kim, Laura, Lindsey and Kirsty. The family would like to thank family and friends, Father Irons, Dorricott Funeral Services and especially staff of Ward 12 and Oncology Unit at Wishaw General Hospital. Thanks also to staff of Avonhaugh Nursing Home, Doctor Russell and his staff, Macmillan and Marie Curie Nurses, The Haven Centre and all Carers. Donations to Cancer Charities can be made through the family.

    Just for you on Mother's Day a very special prayer that God will bless you, keep you safe and tend you with great care

    For you were such a special Mum in every single way and I still miss you very much and think of you each day

    But I know you're up in heaven now so happy and carefree with angels watching over you as you watched over me

    And your memory still lives on, dear Mum in those whose lives you touched for nothing loved is ever lost and you were loved so much

    Happy Mother's Day Mum

    love and miss you every day

    We are sad within our memory,
    Lonely are our hearts today;
    For the one we loved so dearly
    Has forever been called away;
    We think of her in silence,
    No eye can see us weep,
    But many silent tears are shed,
    When others are asleep.

    Love and miss you every day

    Carol and Colin xxxx

    I have lost my soul’s companion,
    A life linked with my own,
    And day by day I miss her more,
    As I walk through life alone

    Miss you all my love

    It broke my heart to lose you,
    But you did not go alone
    Part of me went with you,
    the day God called you home.
    A million times I've thought of you
    A million times I've cried
    If loving could have saved you
    You would have never died
    Forgive me Lord, I'll always weep
    For the wife I loved but could not keep.

    Love and miss you

    Adam xxxxxxxxxxx

    Months have grown day by day

    It's now a year since she went away

    Thoughts are full and hearts do weigh

    Without her here to share the way

    Time may dull the hand of fate

    Memory forever recalls the date

    Love and miss you very much

    Carol and Colin

    Mother you were the nicest, you were always there for me
    You sung me nursery rhymes as you bounced me on your knee
    You did everything that you could for me then left me on my own
    The angels wanted you with them so they came and took you home
    No one could ask more from their mum than what you did for me
    Every day you gave me time, our closeness all could see
    You cuddled and cherished me as a mother always does
    Supported me in everything and often gave me a shove
    You wiped my tears when I cried and laughed at all my ways
    I reminded you of you when you were in your youthful days
    I know I tried you with my moments as every child does
    When life can get too much to bear in all the tear and rush
    But you were there for me whenever I needed you
    Sadly I never told you just how much I loved you too
    And now it is too late, for your arms I can no longer feel
    I should have told you when I could that my love for you was real

    Missing you so much
    Love Carol xx

  • Gran

    A beautiful memory dearer than gold.
    Of a gran, Whose worth can never be told,
    There's a place in my heart no one can fill,
    I miss you, gran and always will.

    A golden heart stopped beating
    Two smiling eyes at rest
    God broke our hearts to prove to us
    He only takes the best.

    My heart is filled with memories
    Which I will gather through the years
    All the happy times we shared,
    Are treasured souvenirs.

    Nothing could be more beautiful

    Than the memories I have of you

    To me they are precious

    Because they are of you

    You always had a smile to share
    Time to give and time to care.
    A loving nature, kind and true,
    Is the way we'll remember you.

    Lots of love

    Kim
