Our mum died on the 3rd of november 2009.......i had a phonecall from my sister who was concerned as
she had been trying to get hold of mum most of the day& she was not answering her phone, I said i
would go round as i live the nearest, so i turned all the ovens off as i was in middle of making
tea, and asked to my son 7yrs, to get his shoes on, as we were going to see if grandma ok?
...................When we got to the house the house was in darkness and all the blinds were shut?
I knocked on the door hoping i would get answer....when no answer came i went round the back, again
all the curtains were shut, but they was a light on at the back, and my initial thought was
'pheww'!! I banged on the back gate hoping mum would hear me, but no answer came, I went back to the
front & asked neighbours but no-one had seen her, a boy who lived on the street offered to climb
over the back wall and un-latch the gate for me, which he did, when in the back yard, the curtains
were shut in the lounge but like i said the light was on, i banged on the back door, then all of a
sudden i heard a child crying.....it was my nephew......my sisters little boy 2yrs old, mum had him
overnight, but no answer from mum? i looked through the kitchen window & the fridge was wide open &
food all over ..... i phoned 999 immediately, in the meantime my sister turned up & i told her
jayden crying but no answer from mum.......she went round the front & herself & neighbours broke in
the front door through a panel, a neighbour climbed through & passed jayden through the small
opening, he said your mums collapsed she is on the floor, Gemma my sister then climbed through with
a struggle, & ran into mum, i phoned 999 again for an ambulance, then a friend ran out shouting what
i didnt want to hear........'its too late Joanne shes gone!!' Mum had suffered a heart attack! I am
still in absolute devastation, Mum leaves four daughters.....joanne, Claire, Gemma & our foster
sister Vicki, She will never be forgotten as she is loved with a passion, i miss her so much
already! We love you mum, xxxx
love always
I JUST WANTED TO TAKE THE TIME
TO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO
THROUGH THE UPS AND DOWNS
THE HARD TIMES YOU'VE HELPED US THROUGH
YOU HAVE HELPED ME IN WAYS, YOU'LL NEVER KNOW
THE VOID IN ME YOU HAVE FILLED
SOME THINGS I WAS MISSING IN MY LIFE
SOME OF THE VALUES THAT YOU INSTILLED
YOURS WAS THE VOICE OF REASON
WHEN I WOULD HAVE SWORN THAT I WAS RIGHT
NO MATTER HOW I FOUGHT IT
YOU HAVE HELPED ME TO SEE THE LIGHT
YOU'RE JUST LIKE THE NORTHERN STARS
A BEACON WHEN I FEEL LOST
A STRONG SHOULDER WE HAVE LEANED ON
NO MATTER WHAT THE COST
YOU STEPPED UP AND MADE ME FEEL
LIKE MY BOYS AND I WERE YOUR OWN
WE KNOW YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO
AND BECAUSE OF THAT WE'VE GROWN
YOU GAVE MORE THAN YOU HAD TOO
AND I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH
SO THANK YOU FOR JUST BEING THERE
WHEN LIFE FEELS SO TOUGH
light a candle,
see it glow,
watch it dance,
when you feel low,
think of me,
think of light,
I'll always be here,
day or night,
a candle flickers,
out of sight,
but in your heart,
I still burn bright,
think not of sadness,
that I'm not near,
think of gladness,
and joyous cheer,
I have not left,
I am not gone,
I'm here to stay
my little one,
so when you light a candle
and you see it glow
and you watch it dance
in your heart you'll know
that I would never leave you
even when you feel so blue
I'm sitting up here with the Lord
and now watching over you
you are a gem amongs gems
a lady amongst kings
always there with the words of reason
in my memories,forever
always in my heart
loved and missed
every time i wake
always remembered when i dream
love scouse
We Miss you Mum xxxxxxxxx

Mum you are our Angel

and know that is where you are
you will always be remembered
by the people who loved you so

for all those people you already know
Your daughters and your Grand children
Your inlaws and your friends to
have all lost a piece of their heart
which has left us to be with you

and when we're feelin down or blue
we will look up to where you are
we miss you so much mum love you always your lil gem xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MUM...I miss you soooo much.....xxxx
The moment that you died
Our hearts were torn in two,
One side filled with memories,
The other died with you.
We often lie awake at night,
When the world is fast asleep,
And take a walk down memory lane,
With tears upon our cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
We do it everyday,
But missing you is heartache
That never goes away.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you did not go alone.
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
We miss you in so many ways,
We miss the things you used to say,
And when old times we do recall,
It’s then we miss you most of all.
We miss you now, our hearts are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face,
No one can fill your vacant place.
