We miss you so so much, life is so different without you being part of it.
I desperatly miss the love you gave my children and how you were always there for them, when they would be naughty and you would always stick up for them, when the phone would ring at some silly hour on the morning of their birthdays and you'd sing happy birthday to them, how you would never ever grow tired of giving them your attention and how you made them feel like the most loved grandchildren in the world.
I miss Sunday tea where you'd think you were feeding the five thousand, how the children would always end up round your feet and on your lap and they'd end up eating your dinner rather than their own! I miss how you'd always help bundle them sleepy into the car and stand at the door and wave goodbye until you couldnt see us anymore.
I miss our lunches, our glasses of wine and our chats on the phone about nothing in particular.
I miss cooking dinner for you and John, how you would always eat whatever I put in front of you and your praise would make me feel like Gordon Ramsey! How you would always join me for just one more glass of wine. I miss Lee telling us to be quiet when we would sit and chat on the settee whilst he was trying to watch the football highlights with John.
I miss your voice, your laugh, your sarcasm,I miss seeing our family together without you with us.
I miss you, I love you and I always will.
Claire

I know you are looking down on all your loved ones and that you feel our sadness. As your journey continues now with Jimmy and your Dad they will hold you and love you for ever and ever. We did have some brilliant Christmas parties round yours when we were little and you used to let us sneak into the kitchen to have some of your home made punch, we did have alot of fun in those days didn't we. I do know that one day we will all meet up and be together again, so until then my lovely Auntie Barbara we send all our love to you. Carl Davinda and Tia xxx
