Well Dad I assume today is apt to be writing this for you. As it is seven years today that you were taken from me so sudden. The previous last two christmas's before you died you had had operations for cancer . They said they had rid of it. I will never forget the look on your face when your 1st grandaughter ( Candice) was born . You was adminant you was going to hospitial to see her, even though we lived miles away from the hospitial. But you been you off you set on your disiablty buggie all the way to L.G.I from Halton Moor. When you finally got home your face was worth a million pounds as you was so proud of our Lisa.You had hurt yourself on the way home or so you thought as you went down a kerb and said you hurt your back. When you went back to St Gemma's ( as you were there two times a week) they said you had to have another scan ( that was on the friday)
On the Saturday morning Stevie woke me up as you was ill. The next few hours I will never forget. I came down into your bedroom and you was really poorly you was seeing things that wasnt there, you was really scaring me. You was calling me Jo which you never ever did or let anyone else either. I phoned the doctor who told me to phone an ambulance which I did. You saw something at the bottom of your bed which I will never forget your words to me " Don't let him take me Jo his got funny eyes" No one else could see it but you, I now believe you was seeing someone.You got hold of my hand and for love nor money you just wouldnt let go.
When we got to hospitial they told me you was dyharated and would have to go on a drip. We stayed at the hospitial with you till bout 6pm then I had to go home to see to Toni and Billie-Jo. I came back to the hosptial at 11.30pm that nite as I could hear you shouting me.
When I arrived at the hosptial I could hear you shouting me "Where's my Jo I want my Jo" I came into your room and finally settled you down. You kept asking me to take you home as you wanted me to look after you not strangers I promised you I would take you home when you was well ( that was never to be). I finally got you to go to asleep bout 2.00am. I told your nurse (which was the only funny bit about this his name was Jo so) I said if you started shouting out for me again he would have to see to you. I got home about 2.45
I was woke about 3.35 as the phone was ringing I thought hosptial was phoning to say they couldnt settle you what they actually said was that you had passed away I was devesated I had not even been gone an hour. I phoned our Lisa about 6pm that morning she was as devesated as me.
I had promised you that you wouldnt die alone and I had done just that left you and I still blame myself for that as I better than anyone knew you didnt like been alone, you had ALWAYS been there for me even the really bad times, but I didnt give you that one wish and for that Dad I am truly sorry probably will be all my life.
Anyway you have 5 great-grandchildren now Candice,Pauly and Lana their our Lisas and Chloe and kiera there our Waynes you would be so proud of them they are all beautiful. Just keep looking after us all as you have been doing Dad. See you soon love you more each day.Hope you found Mum and Grandad up there, as they will keep you in your place.MISS YOU ALWAYS LOVE YOU MORE.Pics to follow.
You've always had a special place,
deep within my heart.
Forever there it will remain,
whether we're near or far apart.
You've always been a favourite,
to everyone you know.
You've always made me happy,
when I was feeling low.
The kind advice you gave to me,
will never be replaced.
Nothing else can ever compare,
when I see a smile upon your face.
I want you to know I love you,
and you mean the world to me.
You're the star I'll always wish upon,
the light I'll always see.
Light a Candle
Light a candle for those we mourn.
Into a new life they will be born.
Do not look for them at the gravesite.
They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light.
They have gone to a new world where there is no darkness, no pain.
Their light and essence will always remain.
Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place.
They are free to travel through time and space.
When we think of them, they are near.
When we sit in a beautiful garden. Their voices we hear.
When we listen to a divine symphony,
We close our eyes, their faces we see.
Light a candle for they have not really gone.
With each flickering flame, in your hearts they will always belong.
You can only have one father,
Patient,kind and true,
No other friend in all the world,
Will be the same as you.
When other friends forsake you,
To Father I will turn,
For all his lovin kindness,
He asks nothing in return.
As I look upon his picture,
Sweet memories I recall,
Of a face so full of sushine,
And a smile for one and all.
Sweet Jesus,take this message,
To my dear Dad above,
Tell him how I miss him,
And give him all my love.
missin u loads
You can shed tears that he is gone
Or you can smile because he has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him
Or you can be full of the love that you shared
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yes
