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 .

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE
Missing you more and more

JOE
Softly from the shadows,
you heard the gentle call,
taking the hand that was offered,
you quietly left us all.
They say it's a wonderful journey,
from the old world to the new,
someday we'll take that journey,
because it leads to you.
And when we reach God's garden,
where all are free from pain,
we'll meet and be together,
never to part again.
love joanne XxxxxxxxxxxxxxX

MY DEAR HUSBAND
The person i loved is gone now
And i miss him so much,
A smile reassuring
That loving,caring touch.
I can be walking down a crowded street
I see other couples and think,
Why can't you be with me
I want that arm i used to link.
But the very, very worst time
Is last thing of a night,
When i miss those arms that held me
And the lips i kissed goodnight.
WHY
Just the average family
We didn't ask for more,
Then life was changed completely
With that knock upon our door.
This awful thing had happened
And none of us knew why,
You were never coming back again
And we didn't say goodbye.
Our world just fell to pieces
We cried in disbelief,
We had to stick together
To overcome our grief.
We'll never understand it
It all seems so unfair,
We wish we'd hear that knock again
And see you standing there.
May the angels keep you till morning
May they guide you through the night
May they comfort all your sorrows
May they help you win the fight...
May they keep watch on your soul
May they show you better ways
May they guard you while you're sleeping
May they see you through your days...
May they show you new hopes
May they still your every doubt
May they calm your every fear
May they hear you when you shout...
May the angels keep you till morning
More than this I cannot pray
And if the angels ever fail you
Then may God be there that day...
