My Nana was the most wonderful person you could meet,she was everything to us.When we were little me
and my 2 sisters Nicola and Kelly lived with our Nana and Grandad,they did everything for us for
which i am eternally grateful.
*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´ ´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´´* ´*•.¸
That horrible day on the 17th of December 1993 i woke to hear raised voices downstairs,i new
something was wrong.I crept out of bed and looked over the bannister i could hear them talking they
were saying to my Grandad i'm so sorry but she is cold she has been gone for hours.I was
confused thinking gone,gone where, i thought she had gone out somewhere.
*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´ ´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´´* ´*•.¸
So i ran to get my sister Kelly who was 11 at the time and i looked out of the bedroom window and
seen an ambulance outside and i new something bad had happened.I woke Kelly and told her what was
going on ,she flew out of bed to the window and then to the landing wanting to know what was going
on.
*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´ ´*•.¸(*•.¸♥ ¸.•*´)¸.•*´´* ´*•.¸
My Grandad heard the commotion and came upstairs with 2 paramedics and told us that my wonderful
Nana was no longer with us,she had died of a massive heart attack that had killed her instantly,she
never suffered.Kelly went mental and started hitting the paramedic and shouting at her i just broke
down ,i don't think i stopped crying for days i couldn't think straight.Just the night
before we had been sitting in her bedroom having a laugh and writing the invitations for their ruby
wedding anniversary in January and now it wouldn't happen i am so glad that night that i told
her i loved her before i went to bed,little did i know that it would be the last time i would say
it.

The funeral was held on the 22nd of December it was horrible my dad had to hold me up as i nearly
collapsed.Loads of people turned up it was really nice of them.One thing i can remember clearly is a
lady at the back of the church singing really loud everything else is a blur.
She was laid to rest with her daughter who died aged five in Durham Road cemetery.Finally
reunited.Also looking after my little angel who i sadly lost at 14 weeks on valentines day 2001
R.I.P my angels xxxxxx

When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me, as much as I love you,
and each time you think of me I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for and so much yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, I thought, just for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things that I'd miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity and all I've promised you".
Today for life on earth is past but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day, there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful, so trusting, and so true.
Though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn't do.
But now at last you’re free.
So won't you take my hand and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart.

Merry Christmas!
At the ending of the day when I'm weary
After a waterfall of tears have all been cried
And I'm feeling like the skies will always be dreary
Nothing's there to fill the emptiness inside.
I lay my head upon my favorite pillow
Just close my eyes to block all the sorrow
Wonderin' where I'll ever find the strength inside-
To do it all again - tomorrow.
And then I feel it-
inside me.
I feel it-
around me.
Like a gentle hand just wiped away the tears-
and held me close to wash away my fears.
It's you, my angel, watching over me.
And I know no matter what tomorrow brings,
You'll be here to wrap me in your angel wings-
Your lovin' angel wings.
The sun comes up, it's time to face the day
And I think that things are going to be all right-
But as the day wears on my nerves begin to fray-
I feel the hollowness that creeps in every night.
And like clockwork all the tears begin to fall
As I look at my reflection in the glass-
The eyes looking back at me make me feel small-
And I ask, my God, how long's this going to last?
And then I feel it-
inside me.
I feel it-
around me.
Like a gentle hand just wiped away the tears-
and held me close to wash away my fears.
It's you, my angel watching over me.
And I know no matter what tomorrow brings,
You'll be here to wrap me in your angel wings-
Your lovin' angel wings.
Thank God for your angel wings.
All my love this Christmas and New Year. Thank you for all your candles, tributes and pictures this year, you have been a huge support to me and my family. I have met some truly amazing people on GTS, you all have hearts of gold, and have given me hope that there are some utterly selfless, wonderful people in the world. Thank you for everything. Love always. xxxxxxx

Today I touched your face again
and watched you for awhile,
I talked of things deep in my heart
and wished I could make you smile.
I rubbed your head and told you,
how proud I am of you,
For all the little things you did
and the way you did each one.
You show such courage daily
and you teach me how to live,
To make each moment count in life
and to give all I can give.
Did I tell you 'You're my hero'
when I saw you yesterday?
Or did it slip my mind
as I gently put you away?
I know your time on earth is done,
but it's how you lived each day,
You made the most of what you had
and always found a way,
To touch the hearts around you,
to love while you may.
I wish with all my heart right now,
the face I touched today,
Wasn't made of paper
or neatly placed away.
But I will put you on the shelf again
for all the world to see,
I'll talk to you tomorrow
just like I do each day.
And I'll tell you 'You're my hero'
as I gently walk away.
Love to you always, and especially now as Christmas is approaching and our loved ones who cannot be with us are constantly in our thoughts.
I'm sorry I have not been on lately, having quite a hard time with money and health problems, and in case I don't get on before Xmas I want to wish all my GTS friends and their angels a very merry Christmas, and here's to the New Year.....may it be all that you wish for and more.
All my love, Mel. xxxxxxx

♥ღ♥ Gone Only To Others ♥ღ♥
Others, who do not know,
Tiptoe around your name
Unaware that your name is silently
Written on my heart, my soul, my life
And inwardly I cry out to hear it spoken.
Others who do not know
Think of you as only in the past,
And believe
That you only exist in my past too
Not understanding that you are
Past, Present, Future.
Others, who do not know,
Feel you as gone,
And fail to see the reality of you
Never being ‘truly’ gone from me.
The empty void of your absence
Is filled with your presence,
Your life will forever weave through mine
The divine bond cannot be severed.
Others who do not know,
Mistakenly may think that my love has been
Weakened by separation,
Feelings ceased,
Not so.
Entwined and strengthened
My love for you lives on
And has not died with death.
But you know all this,
If only others knew.
Dear Leanne, Sorry for the delay in writing Margaret's tribute, I have moved house and everything has all been up in the air lately. Thinking of you always. Love Mel (Grace and Francis Doe)
If I should go tomorrow
It would never be goodbye,
For I have left my heart with you,
So don't you ever cry.
The love that's deep within me,
Shall reach you from the stars,
You'll feel it from the heavens,
And it will heal the scars.
Love always to you and your family.. thankyou for all your support you give to me and my dad..have a lovely week xxx
So many things have happened,
Since you were called away,
So many things to share with you,
Had you been left to stay,
Every day in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are ever near,
Still missed, loved, and always dear.
Have a lovely weekend angel..hope u have fun on halloween with all your angel friends..
sendin u and your family all my love and best wishes..
many thanks for all your support and friendship,i am truly grateful xxxx
For Kelly, Leanne and family

Look for me in springtime
As raindrops fill the air
In the splendour of the rainbow
You’ll find my presence there.
You will find me in the fragrance
Of April’s sweet perfume
Drifting through the clover
On a sultry day in June.
An August day will find me
Upon the summer breeze
On the distant sound of the thunder
In the gently swaying trees.
In the golden fields of harvest
Is where I can be found
As autumn time approaches
And leaves comes tumbling down.
In the wintertime when days are short
And chill is in the air
Just look into a moonlit night
You’ll find me lingering there.
When the setting sun has gone away
And shadows fill the night
When the cloak of darkness lifts its veil
I’ll be your morning light.
So when you feel discouraged
And at night to God you pray
You’ll feel me there beside you
I’m just a breath away.
