Well what can i say i could be here for a life time with the memories i have this wee woman never had a bad word to say about anyone and always seen the good in the bad, she loved her family dearly and not a day went by were she always talked about each and everyone of her family. She enjoyed her life seeing her family day in day out.

She was more like a friend than a granny, the times we shared together going to the beach when i was young everyday of the summer we went to the beach then as i grew up i went to her house after school for dinner but dinner turned in to supper and supper turned into breakfast but i never complained it was always fun staying and having a giggle.

As i grew up more many boxing days were spent sharing a bottle of wine or 2 and going and staying up in her house every boxing night right up untill she died i may have been 19 but i was never too old to stay with my granny.

She made us all proud , i loved going to see her mind you she was more interesed in seeing dave (my fiance) as she had a soft spot for him always spoke very highly of him which makes me know i am with the right person.

She spoke highly of all her grandchildrens partners, David Sharon Amy Claire Carol , as i said she got along with everyone she was always full of life at 80 she was still doing her normal day to day things going shopping cleaning the house going out for lunch's meals with members of the family. She was so special to each and every one of us.

We will celebrate her life each day in our hearts & remember our time together with happiness x0x

When Angels sense you need them, and they always do
They come unseen, from everywhere
To help and comfortyou
They hover close beside you
Til all your cares are gone
Til they can see youre ready
Once again to carry on
Then some of them may fly away
And take their gentle touch
To other hearts that need the love
Of Angels very much
But one , at least stays with you
As your constant friend and guide
For Guardian Angels never leave
They are always by your side

May you find serenity and tranquility
in a world you may not always understand.

May the pain you have known
and the conflict you have experienced
give you the strength to walk through life
facing each new situation with courage and optimism.

Always know that there are those
whose love and understanding will always be there,
even when you feel most alone.

May a kind word,
a reassuring touch,
and a warm smile
be yours every day of your life,
and may you give these gifts
as well as receive them.

May the teachings of those you admire
become part of you,
so that you may call upon them.

Remember, those whose lives you have touched
and who have touched yours
are always a part of you,
even if the encounters were less than you would have wished.
It is the content of the encounter
that is more important than its form.

May you not become too concerned with material matters,
but instead place immeasurable value
on the goodness in your heart.
Find time in each day to see beauty and love
in the world around you.

Realize that what you feel you lack in one regard
you may be more than compensated for in another.
What you feel you lack in the present
may become one of your strengths in the future.
May you see your future as one filled with promise and possibility.
Learn to view everything as a worthwhile experience.

May you find enough inner strength
to determine your own worth by yourself,
and not be dependent
on another's judgment of your accomplishments.

May you always feel loved.

For Sarah Jane

God hath not promised
Skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways
All our lives through;
God hath not promised
Sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow,
Peace without pain.

But God hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labour,
Light for the way,
Grace for the trials,
Help from above,
Unfailing sympathy,
Undying love.

Miss you gran x

Just because we lose
someone who we love
does not mean they leave us,
there memory lives on in our hearts
[&] god needed a new angel thats
why he broke our hearts to prove he only takes the best , and this time he really did get the best...
