    Sad was the parting, no one can tell,
    So sudden on earth the sorrow fell;
    The blow was hard, the shock severe,
    To part with one I loved so dear.
    Dearer still as years depart
    Your memory lives within my heart.

    Everyday in some small way
    Memories of you come our way.
    Though absent, you are always near
    Still missed, loved and always dear.

    We can’t have old days back
    When we were all together.
    But secret tears and loving thoughts
    Will be with us forever.

    We miss you now, our hearts are sore, As time goes by we miss you more, Your loving smile, your gentle face, No one can fill your vacant place. Your touch, your smile, Was always so tender, Today, tomorrow, We will always remember. We miss you in so many ways, We miss the things you used to say, And when old times we do recall, It’s then we miss you most of all. Nothing can ever take away. The love a heart holds dear. Fond memories linger every day Remembrance keeps him/her near. Looking back with memories, Upon the path you trod, We bless the hours we had with you, And leave the rest with God. Those we love we never lose, For always they will be, Loved, remembered, treasured, Always in our memory

    Remembrance You can shed tears that he is gone, or you can smile because he has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that he’ll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all he has left. Your heart can be empty because you can’t see him, or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember him and only that he’s gone, or you can cherish his memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back, or you can do what he’d want: Smile, Open Your Eyes, Love and Go on.

    If we could have a lifetime wish and one dream that could come true. We would pray to God with all our hearts just to see and speak to you A thousand words won’t bring you back We know because we’ve tried and neither will a million tears We know because we’ve criedYou’ve left behind our broken hearts and precious memories too But we’ve never wanted memories We only wanted you. Dad, love always and forever. xx

    The moment that you died my heart was torn in two, one side filled with heartache, the other died with you. I often lie awake at night, when the world is fast asleep, and take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it everyday, but missing you is heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart and there you will remain.

    We'll always remember
    that special smile,
    that caring heart,
    that warm embrace,
    you always gave us.
    You being there
    for us through good
    and bad times,
    no matter what.
    We'll always remember
    you Dad because
    they'll never be another one
    to replace you in our hearts,
    and the love we will always
    have for you

    God saw u getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around u & whispered come with me. With tearful eyes we watched and we saw u pass away. Although we love u dearly, we could not make u stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us he only takes the BEST XXX Thinking of you always and even more as its Christmas, love you always and forever love Susan xx ps see you sat xxx
