My mum was a solicitors secretary for Ison Harrison & co, she loved her new job after she was made redundant from The Burton Group. She had many friend who all looked up to her and she was everybodys agony aunt. Always helping whenever they needed her. Never a wrong word said about her. She had passed her driving test and was now a free independant woman Something she never thought she would be. Her life had just begun but tragically it was not meant to be. Heart desease played a cruel part in her death and left a very big hole in all our hearts.
My mum and me built a lot of bridges and I am sooo glad we became very close. My son brandon loved her to bits and misses her. One sweet day mam as words to the song, we will meet in heaven. I love you and miss you mam.
forever in my thoughts

ON YOUR RUBY ANNIVERSARY

We never know
Or fully realize
How sweet and kind our parents are,
How gentle and how wise

We simply take for granted,
From day to passing day,
Each sacrifice they make for us
In their own loving way.

But then we grow and finally learn,
The way that children do,
How much their love has really meant,
How thoughtful they've been, too -

And so this comes with all the thanks
You both deserve and more.
For there aren't two dearer parents
Who these words are for.

Both are now in heavens gardens
Continuing with their love
For we all wish you both was here
To party like we should

Happy 40th wedding Anniversary mum and dad

MUM GO TO THE GATES OF HEAVEN
AND WAIT FOR DAD TO COME
HE WILL NEED TO SEE YOUR SMILING FACE
THATS WARMER THAN THE SUN
NOW BOTH OF YOU ARE UNITED IN HEAVEN
AT PEACE YOU BOTH SHALL BE
LOOK DOWN UPON US AND HELP US THROUGH
THE SAD TIMES THAT WE'LL SEE

MUM

A gentle wind blew cross the land

Reaching out to take a hand

For on the winds the angels came

Calling out a mother's name

Left behind, the children's tears

Loving memories of the years

Of joy and love, a life well spent

And now to God a mother's sent.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight

The journey home, towards the light

To those who weep, a life is gone

But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn

For Karon

Do not stand at my grave

Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blows I am the diamond glint on the snow
I am the sun on the ripened grain I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the mornings hush I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circle flight
I am the soft Stars that shine at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry I am not there
I did not die.
