This Memorial is for a wonderful and most caring Husband,Father,Son,Brother and Uncle who is sadly
missed by all his family and friends.
Joe was in hospital for 3 1/2 weeks prior to his passing, he had been told by the doctors that he
was makin a wonderful recovery and that he would be home in time for christmas.
Christmas day 2007 got the phone call to say that joe was not coming home for christmas as he was
not well enough, both myself and the children were really upset by this as we had been looking
forward to joe being there.
So we continued to be there at every visit afternoon and night.Through out all these visits we were
promised joe could be allowed out even if it was only for an hour or two.
Everyday was the same he was making progress but was not well enough to leave his hospital bed.
Then came the 14th of january i arrived at the hospital to visit joe at 7:30pm was not allowed to go
straight in as he was having blood took, so i was left sitting outside the ward with a nurse coming
out every 5 minutes saying you can go in shorlty we are just taking blood from joe it wont be long.I
was finally allowed to go in to see joe and i almost walked right passed his bed, he was not the
same person i had left in the hospital the night before, He was just not my joe he was hooked up to
oxygen, blood pressure monitor etc,
then the doctor arived and told us that joe was seriously ill, he asked to speak to me on my own at
which point i turned to joe and said i would not be long. The doctor took me into a room and then
told me the words i had been dreading that my husband was not going to make it through the next
hour.I then went out and made the phone calls to my family and to joe's family to let them know what
was happening.
I was sitting at joe's bedside knowing that i did not have long left with the person i had spent the
last 15 years of my life with,Then from the side of me a nurse appeared she had come in to make joe
a bit more comfortable at this point watching them move my husband about his hospital bed i could
see his life draining away from him.
My husband had passed away exactly 8 minutes after me making the last phone call to family to
explain what the doctor had told me.
That night was the most saddest night of my life i felt as thou my heart had been ripped right out
of my body, how was i going to get through this how was i going to explain to our two children that
their dad was no longer here to be with them.
Our two kids and myself miss joe terribly but know that he is looking down on us everyday .

TO SEE YOU ONCE AGAIN XXXX
I wish with all my heart I could see you once more,
I would use that moment and time to tell you how
Much love my heart holds for you and I shall never
Close that door.
Life each and every day with out you keeps going on
Even if some days I do not wish it I know I am being
Selfish and maybe even wrong, but to see you just once
More I so very much long.
I try to remember all the loving and happy times we
Were granted to enjoy and share, I try to understand
And not cry but to see you once more even only for a
moment to let you know just how very much I do care.
I know that day will eventually come when its my turn
To this world to say goodbye, But until then I shall hold
your love close to my heart, and sometimes I shall break
Down and cry, and I will still ask the question why did you
have to die?
Missin U More And More Everyday
Lots Of Love

WE'LL NEVER SAY GOODBYE XXXXX
♥�*•.�*•.� ♥ �.•*��.•*��*♥
I cannot see you with my eyes
Or hear you with my ears,
But thoughts of you are with me still
And often dry my tears.
You whistle in the rustling leaves,
That linger in the fall
And in the gentle evening breeze,
I'm sure I hear your call.
A part of you remains with me
That none can take away;
It gives me strength to carry on,
At dawning of new day.
I think of happy times we shared
And then I softly sigh
But then I know - we'll meet again
And never say goodbye.
♥�*•.�*•.� ♥ �.•*��.•*��*♥
�*•.�(*•.�♥ �.•*�)�.•*�
I’ll always see your face,
The corner of your smile,
And all the little things that no one will ever know.
Like it was yesterday, won’t ever fade away,
Goodbye is just a word that I will never say.
♥�*•.�*•.� ♥ �.•*��.•*��*
I can‘t hold your hand
Or look into your eyes,
And when I talk to you,
It just echoes in my mind;
But If hearts are made of dust
And if we fell from the stars,
I would look up tonight and know just where you are.
♥�*•.�*•.� ♥ �. •*��. •*��*
You will never be forgotten.
A million days could pass us by,
But what is time but just a dream?
Oh I still feel you here with me.
You’re more than just a memory.
Oh, you will never be forgotten.
♥�*•.�*•.� ♥ �. •*��. •*��*
And the world just keeps on going;
It has no way of knowing
That you’re gone.

The Lord will always walk with you
Along life's blessed beach,
His footprints there beside your own,
Always within reach. Two sets of footprints,
Side-by-side, from dawn to setting sun,
Yet there may come a day, my child,
When you'll see only one.
But do not think the Lord has left you-
Nothing could be more wrong.
It's just that He has picked you up,
To carry you along......

A MILLION TIMES XX
A million times we'll miss you,
a million times we'll cry.
If loving could have saved you,
you never would have died.
In life we love you dearly,
in death we love you too.
In our hearts there is an empty place,
no one could fill but you.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you never went alone.
for part of us went with you,
when God took you home.
His garden must be pretty,
he only wants the best.
He put his loving arms around you
and said: "My child, come home to rest".
DON'T GRIEVE FOR ME XX
Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free
I’m following the path God has laid you see.
I took His hand when I heard him call
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found that peace at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life’s been full, I savored much
Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and peace to thee
God wanted me now; He set me free.
A LETTER FROM HEAVEN
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through.
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, 'I welcome you.'
'It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on.
I need you here so badly, you are part of my plan.
There is so much that we can do, to help our mortal man.'
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you.... in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years.
Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who is in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night....'My day was not in vain.
And now I am contented... that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.'
So if you meet somebody who is sad and low;
Just lend a hand to pick them up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go....
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going....
you're coming here to be with me Xxxxxx

MY DAD
I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
Of a kind and loving father
Who had a heart of gold
I could write a million pages
But still be unable to say,
just how much
i love and miss him
every single day.
I will remember all he taught me
I'm hurt but won't be sad
‘cos he'll send me down the answers
And he'll always be MY DAD
LOVE U ALWAYS
SEAN & KAYLEIGH
