In Memoriams
(Mick) In loving memory of a dear Husband, Dad and Grandad 21st July 2008. God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be, so He put His arms around you and He 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, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He chose to take the best. It’s lonesome here without you, we miss you more each day. Life doesn’t seem the same, since you have gone away. When days are sad and lonely, and everything goes wrong. We seem to hear you whisper ‘Cheer up and carry on’ Each time we see your picture, you seem to smile and say ‘Don’t cry, I’m in God’s hands, we’ll meet again some day!’ Loved and missed so much. Edith, Janette, Wendy, Steve and Charlotte.
(Bennett ) Five long painful years since you joined your Dad on 19th July 2019. The heartache, the tears, the daily reminders of your absence. Thinking of you as always. Much loved and missed, precious Daughter of Joyce and the late Ivor, Sister to Kevin, Mum to Daniel, Steph and Abbie and partners. Also a Nannie to her precious Grandbabies Mason, Noah, Ayla and Esme xxx Your broken-hearted Family xxx
In loving memory of Karen who passed away on the 12th July 2020 aged 47 years. ‘For nothing loved is ever lost and Karen was loved so much’ A loving wife to Nick, Mum to Chloe and Elliot, Grandma to Olli, Daughter to Ann and Owen, Sister to Angela, Auntie and a dear Friend. Always in our thoughts and forever in our hearts. x
In loving memory of a dear Son, Brother and Uncle who passed away on the 14th July 2014. Sadly missed by all the family. Forever in our thoughts.
