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

SPECIAL FRIEND X
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆

If u love me as a friend u'll read the whole thing. What would you do if for every moment you were truly happy there would be 10 moments of sadness? What would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you never got to tell them how you felt? So, I just wanted to say, even if I never talk to you again in my life, you are special to me and you have made a difference in my life. I look up to you, respect you, and truly cherish you. Send this to all your friends, no matter how often you talk, or how close you are, and send it to the person who sent it to you. Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them, and tell new friends you never will. Remember, everyone needs a friend. dont ever leave the one u love for the one u like, because the one u like will leave u for the one they love.
If you wake up in a red room with no windows and doors, DON'T panic.. you're just in my heart!!! Send this to all the friends you want to keep forever...

God called your name so gently,
That only you could hear.
No one heard the footsteps,
Of angels drawing near.

Softly from the shadows
There came a gentle call,
You closed your eyes and went to sleep,
And quietly left us all.

God must have known there would be times
We'd need a word of cheer
Someone to praise a triumph
Or brush away a tear.
He must have known we'd need to share
The joy of 'little things'
In order to appreciate
The happiness life brings.
I think he knew our troubled hearts
Would sometimes throb with pain
At trials and misfortunes
Or some goals we can't attain.
He knew we'd need the comfort
Of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage
To make a fresh, new start.
He knew we'd need companionship
Unselfish...lasting. ..true,
And so God answered the heart's great need
With CHERISHED GTS FRIENDS....like you.

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you.
And share with you it's beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea.
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me,
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be...what I know best,
a friend that's always there.
