The greatest sweetest mum and wife of all , you were taken from us on 11th december 2003 aged
49 without warning or time to say goodbye and that day will stick with us forever . You always put
others first and never complained about feeling ill.
My dear mum died from a condition called lupus which at the time not much was known about , it
effects your blood and damages organs in the body .It caused a piece of damaged liver to travel to
her heart which in turn caused it to swell and fail . It wasnt until after her death that more has
been found out about it . Im just so glad she didnt realise she could die from it .

You are missed by your whole family and nothing can take the pain of losing you away. You were the
most precious little grandma to Joshua , he misses you so much every day and watches for your star ,
he still lives in the hope that one day you will come home .
Asda boldon aint the same without you and the deli aint got the same sparkle !

" IF TEARS COULD BUILD A STAIRWAY ,
MEMORIES A LANE ,
I'D WALK RIGHT UP TO HEAVEN AND
BRING YOU HOME AGAIN XXXX "

What is a Mum?

A mum is one of life's best gifts,
Someone to treasure all life through,
She's caring and loving,
Thoughtful and true,
Someone who is always a special part of your life,
Someone who holds a prime place in your heart,
She's a mentor, a confident and also a friend,
Someone on whose love you can depend.
A mum always has your best interests at heart,
She's someone so dear and so good,
She's a blessing, she's a gift,
She's a treasure like no other,
She's someone that is truly wonderful.
Wherever you go, and whatever you do,
A mum’s love will always see you through,
A mum is truly invaluable,
Indispensable and unforgettable.
I wouldn't want anyone but you,
And that's why I'm so grateful,
that life picked you for me.

♥ღ♥ Safely Home ♥ღ♥

♥ღ♥ I am safely in Heaven, dear ones:
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.

All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing past;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.

And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?

Then you must not grieve me sorely,
For I love you dearly still;
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's will ♥ღ♥

♥ღ♥ Love Anne ♥ღ♥

MAMA LOVE YOU XXXXX

I said a Mother's Day prayer for you
to thank the Lord above
for blessing me with a lifetime
of your tenderhearted love.

I thanked God for the caring
you've shown me through the years,
for the closeness we've enjoyed
in time of laughter and of tears.

And so, I thank you from the heart
for all you've done for me
and I bless the Lord for giving me
the best mother there could be!

Even though your in heaven
your still here for me
i can hear you in the wind
and see you smiling in the stars.

so now its mothers day mama
im sending you flowers to Heaven
and hugs across the stars
loving you for always
keeping you safe in my heart

missing you in my tears
xxxxx Love you mama xxxx

A Special Angel

There's a special angel in heaven
That is a part of me
It is not where I wanted them
But where God wanted them to be

they were here but just a moment
Like a night time shooting star
And though they are in heaven
tHey arnt very far

they touched the heart of many
Like only and angel can do
I would've held them more often
If the end I only knew

So I send this special message
To the heavens up above
Please take care of my angel
And send them all my love

This Tribute Is For This Weekend

Candles Will Be Lit Again As Usual For Monday


LITTLE ANGELS

When God calls little children
To dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question
The wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares
With the death of one small child
Who does so much to make our world
Seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
The aged to His fold.
So He picks a rosebud
Before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them
And so He takes but few
To make the land of heaven
More beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult,
Still somehow we must try.
The saddest word that mankind knows
Will always be 'goodbye'.
So when a little child departs,
We who are left behind
Must realise God loves children
Angels are hard to find.

If roses grow in heaven,
Lord Please pick one for me.
Place it in my Loved ones hand
And tell them it's from me.
Tell them that I love them
And when they turn to smile,
Place a kiss upon their cheek
And hold them for a while.
Remembering them is easy,
I do it every day.
But there's an ache within my heart
That will never go away.



I looked towards the clouds today
And for a moment saw your face.
I wondered just where you have gone
With hope it's a better place.

Did you show yourself to me today,
To tell me you're all right?
Or was it just a daydream
Playing tricks upon my sight?

We will always feel the void inside
Because you are not here.
But each new thought you send our way
Lets us know you're near.

So until our journey nears its end
And we hear the angels sing,
We'll face each new day as it comes
And live off the love you bring.



If tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane,
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again.

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.

But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more.
To remember all the happy times,
Life still has much in store.

Since you'll never be forgotten,
We pledge to you today:
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll always stay.
