I would like to do this memorial in memory of my wonderful mum who was very strong through all her
treatment in trying to get rid of her cancer, my mum had two daughters me and my sister Sarah who
she adored very much. My mum was a single parent and worked as an office clerk to bring in money to
pay the bills and also feed us unfortunately she was made redundant although she was upset and
worried about how she would manage the bills she always put on a brave face for us, then in 2005 our
world fell to pieces she was diagnosed with cancer she had a lump on her foot and when this was
removed it was discovered that it was cancerous she went on to having more treatment this included
having her toes amputated but this did not deter her from having a night out she would call her
friend up and say come on we are having fun so she did she went out on her crutches and danced the
night away on them she was very courageous, she then found out a few days after this that the cancer
had actually spread and she would have to have her foot amputated she still smiled we helped her and
tried to stay strong but it came to blows when she was admitted into a hospice and we were taken
into a quiet room me then 13 years and my sister then 10 years and we was told she would never pull
through and she only had days to live, oh mum our world fell apart from that day my heart was truly
broken I didn’t know what to say only is there no way of getting a healer in to help as silly as
it sounds now it was the only way I could help my mum.
I tried to do the best I could when she was alive trying to fight the cancer I slept on the sofa
cause she couldn’t get upstairs to bed so her bed was brought down to the living room and I stayed
sleeping there night in night out in case she needed me to help her.
My mum was an inspiration to both me and my sister and also all our friends they adored her and am
convinced they only came round to call for us so that they could see my mum.
Time has gone by now and things have very much changed my mum now has 3 grandsons and a
granddaughter Joshua, Jordan, Darren and Emma and I know that she will be up there looking down on
each and every one of them.
RIP my best friendXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
THANK YOU FOR LEAVING A MEMORIAL PICTURE AND LIGHTING A CANDLE IN REMEMBERANCE OF MY MUM IT MEANS SO
MUCH TO ME.
**************************************************
Mum you were a very special person always smiling always fun,
everyone that you knew loved you through and through,
its been so long since we last saw you,
but we keep on fighting through the days without you,
When you was suddenly taken from us days and nights seemed very long,
I know for sure that one day,
we will and shall meet again,
until that day we will keep strong for you my mum you were my best friend.
Love you forever and always
Clare. Xx
**************************************************
God came down and took your hand to lead you to his wonderland,
On the way he spoke in your ear this world is not right for you my dear,
Up above you met your dad this made you very glad,
As you sat there day and night wondering why your dad went that night,
For now you know he was up above ready to show you his everlasting love.
RIP MumX

I stood by your bed last night;
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.
I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
'It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here.'
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached to me.
I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today; you tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I flew with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently landed on you; I smiled and said, 'it's me.'
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, 'I never went away.'
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say 'good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning.'
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll fly across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me.

♦♥♦ Cherished Memories ♦♥♦
•:*:• ♥ •:*:••:*:• ♥ •:*:••:*:• ♥
Sometimes it's hard to understand
To see the reason why,
Sometimes it's hard to find the words
To say that last goodbye.
Sometimes it's hard to look ahead
With eyes still filled with tears,
But all our cherished memories
Will live on through the years.
And though there are no answers
The questions still remain,
Sometimes we just can't comprehend
Or understand the pain.
Sometimes it's hard to look beyond
The rainclouds in the sky,
Though all our cherished memories
Will stay as time goes by.
Sometimes when we close our eyes
The only thing we see,
Are moments that are long gone by
Of how things used to be.
Sometimes we need to just let go,
Let tears fall as they may,
Reliving cherished memories
That never fade away.

♥ღ♥ Whatever our hands touch---
We leave fingerprints!
On walls, on furniture,
On doorknobs, dishes, books,
As we touch we leave our identity.
Oh please where ever I go today,
Help me leave heartprints!
Heartprints of compassion
Of understanding and love.
Heartprints of kindness and genuine concern.
May my heart touch a lonely neighbor
Or a runaway daughter,
Or an anxious mother,
Or, perhaps, a dear friend!
I shall go out today
To leave heartprints,
And if someone should say
"I felt your touch,"
May that one sense be...YOUR LOVE
Touching through ME ♥ღ♥ xxx
YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
When you hear an Angel softly whisper to you,
In the light of the day, or the darkness of the night.
When you feel the presence of an Angel caress you,
And see their beautiful wings spread in graceful flight.
When something inside you just makes you smile,
Or you feel a warmth suddenly wash over your heart.
When your dreams are beautiful and include an Angel,
As you lay with your head on your pillow, in the dark.
When you're alone, and everything is quiet around you,
Yet you can hear the sweetest lullaby being sung.
When waking up in the morning, any troubles feel lighter,
From speaking with an Angel, before a new day has begun.
Then you know I am the Angel who you can feel and hear;
Your special Angel from Heaven who will always be so near.
I'm no longer able to be here in body, but I'm with you everyday,
As my loving heart, my soul, and my spirit, will never be far away.

Love Always Elaine xxxxxx
♥♥I'm sending a dove to heaven with a parcel on its wings. Be careful how you open it it’s full of beautiful things Inside are a million kisses wrapped up in a million hugs To say how much you mean to us and send you all our love ♥X♥

Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on
and cherished memories never fade
because a loved ones gone
those we love can never be
more than a thought apart
for as long as there is memory
they'll live on in the heart.
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
There is a special place in our hearts
for those we have loved
for those who have loved us
without question, without a word or promise
there is a special place
where there is no pain or fear
where love flows freely
there is a special place to rest
in our hearts forever.
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
I know how much I miss you
I feel an emptiness inside
It shows in everything I do
It's something I can't hide
I simply miss you being there
Life seems dull and flat
Without you nothings quite the same
I can't say more than that
But one day we will meet again
I know that this is true
But everyday until then
I know i'll just be missing you.
