Hi my/our mom irene was a very special person, always doing things for other people and never taking time for herself. she was one of life's givers not takers, she always worked hard to provide for her family.making sure there was nothing that she couldnt help us out with. my mom didnt have much of a good life,she lost 2 children, our sister helen who died at the age of 2 and then again our brother patrick who was just 8 hours old when god took him to the garden in the sky.
With 3 girls to look after it really couldnt have been easy, but she did a brilliant job.I fell pregnant at the age of 15 in 1998 my son was born in may 99 she was so amazing helping me through it and teaching me how to care for my baby boy. soon came new years eve 99 and i decided to stay at home with my then bf and my new son,rather than goin to my sister donna's house to celebrate with the rest of my family.Little did i know that it would be the last new year my mom would see in.Unfortunately she was diagnosed wiv pancreatic cancer in march 2000 at the age of 55, it was the biggest shock of our lives. there was me with a new baby to bring up and then to be told that ur rock ur mother was goin to be leaving. i was totally devestated and so where my sisters, we tried everything to help.my poor mom was givin 6 months to live on march 3rd 2000,we'd had a 1st family holiday abroad booked for october 2000 after finally managing to talk mom around to flying.she wouldnt even make that holiday and doctors told us not to move it forward because she would be to ill to fly anyway. On my 17th birthday my mom was in hospital so i had to go visit her there, it was unbearable. she came home abaout a week later and from then on i was her full time carer, helping her to dress,wash,go to the toilet and towards the end helping her to eat, as my sisters both worked it was hard for them to help out as much as they wanted to.my mom was taken into hospital on monday 26th june 2000. i called my sisters and told them they had to come to the hospital quickly as mom didnt have much time. we were told she wouldnt see the next few hours and to arrange for family to come say their goodbyes.my mom was a fighter though as we sat round her hospital bed,she fought through monday and again on tuesday also wednesday but unfortunatly lost her battle for life on thursday 29th june 2000. she left 3 grandchildren behind,aimee,hope and my son jordan who she only got to share his 1st birthday with before she was taken to rest in the garden in the sky.she also left 3 daughters sharron,donna and me lynne who miss her dearly everyday.she now has 3 new grandchildren that she never got to meet in person,but i know she was there for all the births.megan,harmony and lewis.There isnt a day that goes by that i/we dont think about her, but i look at it like this...she is now looking after her children that were gone to soon. so i wish her happiness and know she'll be waiting to greet me/us when my/our time comes,hopefully when im old and have watched my/our children grow. god bless u mom u are 1 in a million. so if i have 1 plea to people its to cherish ur parents and all other family memebers cause u never know how long u've got them round u.
love u always mom
RIP
Your loving daughter/daughters

mom your gone but never forgotten
THE BROKEN CHAIN
We little knew that morning that God was going to all your name,
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
love and miss you always mom x x x
all my love Lynne x x x
miss you mom
You never said im leaving,
You never said goodbye,
You were gone before i knew it,
And only god knew why.
A million times i needed you,
A million times i cried,
If love alone could of saved you,
You never would have died.
In life i loved you dearly,
In death i love you still,
In my heart you hold a place,
That no one will ever fill.
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of me went with you mom,
The day god to you to his home.
I love and miss you always mom,
Your always in my heart,
But until the day we meet again,
For now we remain apart.
I love and miss you so much mom, more than anyone could ever know.
ALL MY LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER

you live on through me mom x x
I feel you in the morning
When at first I awake
Your thought is with me
With each decision I make
You'd been around forever
Since the first breath I took
Now I have to go on alone
But for love, I need not look
Cause by what you bestowed
In our short time together
Will last in my heart
Forever and ever
Although you've left
And now walk above
I'm never alone
I'm wrapped in your love
Enjoy now your long waited reward
Feel peace that your love continues on
What was taught to me, will be taught to mine
Cause you live on in me even after you've gone
love u always
happy angel day x x x lynne
Special Angel Day - by Sam & Gordon Winson
We do not need a special day
To bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
Are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake
We know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we love you still.
There will always be a heartache,
And often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.
If tears would make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.
We hold you close within our hearts;
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.
Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
Your Angel, Your Mother by Natasha Jordan
You look back on memories you forget you had,
And at times you'll smile, even though it hurts so bad.
Your Mother is a special woman, and no one can take her place,
You'll find a peace of mind when you remember her smiling face.
Your Mother is an Angel, now she flies high above the rest,
And in your hearts, always and forever, she will be the very best.
She has earned her wings, and it's time for her to fly,
I know it hurts, no one’s ever ready to say goodbye.
She knows you do not understand, and that you cry at night.
But as you finally drift off to sleep, let her memory hold you tight.
She will be your Guardian Angel, through the rest of your life.
Helping lead you on the road, between what’s wrong and right.
Your Mother loves you so much, and her love will always remain true
Please don't ever think for a second, that your Mother will forget you
A Mother’s love is like no other in the whole world
And she has the most wonderful memories, of her little boy and girl.
She has taken them with her, as she's flown away
Up to heaven free of pain, to her new home where she will stay.
So although you cannot see her, and you wish she could be there
Your Mother can always hear you, and your Mother will always care.
A Mother does not forget, the two greatest loves of her life
She loved nothing more than being your Mummy & your Daddy's wife
She is so proud of her family, and that’s in her heart to stay
Even though she's an Angel, and has had to fly away.
So as you cry your tears, remember your Mother’s love
Being sent to you from her, from the beautiful Heaven above.
She'll be there through your good times, she'll be there through your bad
She'll be there when you're happy, she'll be when you sad.
Your Mother has become an Angel now, It's her time to fly
And you will never know how much it hurt me
To watch you have to say goodbye.
says it all x
Mom, we miss you so very much
On every Mother’s Day;
And not just then, but every minute,
Since you went away.
You were the center of our lives
Before your soul passed on;
It’s just so hard for us to believe
That you are really gone.
But we celebrate the life you lived
And all the things you gave us;
Our wonderful memories, Mom, of you
Are the things that will comfort and save us.
Please think of us, as we think of you
With hearts so full of love;
We’re looking up at you, sweet Mom,
As you look at us from above.
love u always and forever mom xxx
poem for u mom xxx
Your mother is always with you...
She's the whisper of the leaves
as you walk down the street.
She's the smell of bleach
in your freshly laundered socks.
She's the cool hand on your brow
when you're not well.
Your mother lives inside your laughter.
She's crystallized in every tear drop.
She's the place you came from,
your first home...
She's the map you follow
with every step that you take.
She's your first love
and your first heart break...
and nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, Not space...
Not even death...
will ever separate you
from your mother...
You carry her inside of you... x x x yours always with me mom where ever i go x
If Roses Grow in Heaven
If roses grow in Heaven Lord
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's 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 remembering her is easy,
I do it everyday,
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away.
love and miss u mom with all my heart and souul xxx

The Lord needed a flower
and that flower was you
so he picked you up from down here
and up and up you flew ~~
He planted you in his garden
he said 'You'll stay here now with me'
and there you'll stay away from harm
the prettiest flower you'll always be ~~
