Dedicated to my mum Violet who passed away 6th march 1996 from secondary breast cancers.
She was only 55 years old.
Born 21st june 1940.
Mum was a housewife, mother to 2 boys & 2 girls & when she died grandmother to 7 grandaughters & 1
cherished Grandson. 2 grandaughter's you actually saw come into the world...1st grandchild Amy & 3rd
grandaughter Rebecca.
Kimberley, her 5th grandaughter was born with Angel wings 14/9/90.

My mum was kind, gentle and had a wicked sense of humour!
Always there for us, and others. She is missed very much.
She was the bravest person i know & she battled hard to beat her cancer but...sadly it all got too
much in the end. With her family all around her she slipped away. No more suffering, no more pain.
R.I.P Mum. I love you.
You are now with my sweet baby Angel Kimberley.
Look after Kimberley for me like we discussed & i'll see you again one day.

Mum adored Englebert Humperdink...the song playing is her favourite.
Brought a tear to my eye hearing it again today.

I chose my own song i love for you mum...what else but MAMA I LOVE YOU!?!

A Rose once grew where all could see,
sheltered beside a garden wall,
And, as the days passed swiftly by,
it spread it's branches straight and tall.

One day, a beam of light shone through a crevice that had opened wide - The rose bent gently
toward's it's warmth, then passed beyond to the other side.


Now, You who deeply feel it's loss,
be comforted - the rose blooms there,
it's beauty even greater now,
nurtured by God's own loving care.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

if roses grow in heaven lord please pick a bunch for me,
place them in my mothers arms and tell her they're from me.

tell her i love her and miss her
and when she turns to smile
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for a while.

because loving her is easy
ill do it every day
but there's an ache ' within my heart
that will never go away.



Mum loved roses...her favourite flower.
though maybe it should of been violets???
for that is her name...

*******************************


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.

WHEN ONE LOSES ONE'S MOTHER

you only have one mother so treasure her like gold.
when she has gone doesn't mean she has deserted you - it's gods hand she now holds.

but always remember that she is there in spirit to guide and help you with your worries and your woes.

when one loses a mother or nan there is no greater pain but we must remember that her suffering was not in vain.

so now we say 'god bless' as we know it's your time to rest we will love you for ever and always try to do our best

For Mother...

For all the times you gently picked me up,
When I fell down,
For all the times you tied my shoes
And tucked me into bed,
Or needed something
But put me first instead.
For everything we shared,
The dreams, the laughter,
And the tears,
I love you with a 'Special Love'
That deepens every year.

21/6/40 - 6/3/96.

12 years today!


I dressed you & curled your hair,
painted your nails a shade of pink.
A mother daughter moment we shared,
In my heart i knew it was our last i think.

The very next day the Angels came.
You looked so peaceful as i held your hand.
Life would never quite be the same.
You couldn't fight anymore mum...but i understand.

You fought the battle, you were so brave!
For all your life you would always laugh & smile,
taking any grumbles & moans to your grave.
The sun shines in Heaven now every day for a while.

Throughout the years people say 'Time heals'.
Does it? I'm not sure i can agree.
What i do know though is that Cancer steals!!!
There was nothing i could do but watch mum die you see.

I'm here today holding onto my mum's legacy.
Hoping that if i ever need to be brave & strong...
That she'll look down & be proud of me,
and my love in my children's hearts will live on.

12 years have passed us by,
The pain i have to weather.
I miss you it's no lie,
But love is Forever.

Shine brightly tonight amongst the stars...i'll be looking out for you.

Mum...you are my guiding star. x x x x x x

Found this & thought how fitting...

When the warmth of the sun
touches my face,
i see your smile and feel
your enbrace. i hear the whisper
of love in the wind and feel you
close by.

Another Mother's Day to endure...still find it hard even after all these years.
Visited the cemetary today & cleaned up your stone & left fresh flowers.
Didn't fight the tears...feels doubly hard as so close to your anniversary.
Not sure if i can cope with returning on Thursday...hope you understand.
Can't believe it'll be 12 years since you left us.
Sometimes it still feels like yesterday!

I love you mum. xxxxxxxxxx

Mum...
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you did not go alone
Part of me went with you,
the day God called you home.
A million times I've thought of you
A million times I've cried
If loving could have saved you
You would have never died
Forgive me Lord, I'll always weep
For my mum whom I loved but could not keep.

Reflections of a Mother

I gave you life, but cannot live it for you.
I can teach you things, but I cannot make you learn.
I can give you directions, but I cannot be there to lead you.
I can allow you freedom, but I cannot account for it.
I can take you to church, but I cannot make you believe.
I can teach you right from wrong, but I cannot always decide for you.
I can buy you beautiful clothes, but I cannot make you beautiful inside.
I can offer you advice, but I cannot accept it for you.
I can give you love, but I cannot force it upon you.
I can teach you to share, but I cannot make you unselfish.
I can teach you respect, but I cannot force you to show honor.
I can advise you about friends, but cannot choose them for you.
I can tell you the facts of life, but I can't build your reputation.
I can tell you about drink, but I can't say 'no' for you.
I can warn you about drugs but I can't prevent you from using them.
I can tell you about lofty goals, but I can't achieve them for you.
I can teach you about kindness, but I can't force you to be gracious
I can warn you about sins, but I cannot make you moral
I can love you as a child, but I cannot place you in God's family.
I can pray for you, but I cannot make you walk with God.
I can teach you about Jesus, but I cannot make Jesus your Lord.
I can tell you how to live, but I cannot give you eternal life.
I can love you with unconditional love all of my life... and I will!!!


PLEASE guide me mum.
Help me with Daniel.
I don't know what to do anymore.

A Poem. x x x

Sending Tears to Heaven


I’m sending with you a bottle, that’s filled with tears of love.

To take with you to heaven, to that wonderful place above.

Please take it to the angels, that are in the room of tears,

they’ll pour them in my bottle, where there these words appear.

“Oh how I Love You, and I will miss you very much.

I asked the Lord for you a Kiss, gentle to the touch.

His arms wide open, for a Hug to embrace.

You’ll hear Him say I Love You, and even see His face.

All these things I too will miss and you will never really know.

This bottle filled with tears of love,

not wanting to let you go.”
