  • A poem for you

    The Comfort and Sweetness of Peace
    After the clouds, the sunshine,
    after the winter, the spring,
    after the shower, the rainbow,
    for life is a changeable thing.
    After the night, the morning,
    bidding all darkness cease,
    after life's cares and sorrows,
    the comfort and sweetness of peace.

    Helen Steiner Rice

    If tears could build a stairway,
    and memories a lane, I’d walk
    right up to heaven and bring you
    home again.

  • For You Bert

    As you hold me close in memory,
    even though we are apart,
    my spirit will live on,
    there within your heart .
    I am with you always.
    When you lean on trusted friends
    and their caring hugs enfold you,
    within their loving arms,
    I'll be there to hold you.
    I am with you always.

    And beyond the far horizon
    when we'll finally be together,
    where love will be eternal
    and life will last forever.
    I am with you always.

  • Forever in my Heart

    Right now I'm in a different place
    And though we seem apart
    I'm closer than I ever was
    ... I'm there inside your heart
    I'm with you when you greet each day
    And while the sun shines bright
    I'm there to share the sunsets, too
    ... I'm with you every night
    I'm with you when the times are good
    To share a laugh or two,
    And if a tear should start to fall
    ... I'll still be there for you
    And when that day arrives
    That we no longer are apart,
    I'll smile and hold you close to me
    ... Forever in my heart

    It broke our hearts to lose you,
    But you did not go alone.
    For part of us went with you,
    The day God called you home

    God saw you getting tired
    and a cure was not to be.
    So he put his arms around you,
    and whispered "Come to Me".
    With tearful eyes we watched you,
    we watched you fade away.
    Although we loved you dearly,
    we could not make you stay.
    A golden heart stopped beating,
    hard working hands now rest.
    God broke our hearts to prove to us
    He only takes the best.

  • Thinking of You

    We thought of you today
    But that is nothing new
    We thought of you yesterday
    And will tomorrow too
    We think of you in silence
    And make no outward show
    For what it meant to lose you
    Only those who love you know
    Remembering you is easy
    We do it everyday
    Its the heartache of losing you
    That will never go away

    Many things to say, and maybe there's more we should have done, but for now we'll have to content ourselves with a goodbye and the good thought that is you.

    Meet you lovely grandson, born 21st March 2010. If you could have held on for just another 4 weeks you could have held him in your arms. Sadly that was not possible despite how hard you tried.

    We all love you
