The obituary notice of Josephine Shirley THOMAS

It is a day where my thoughts are teasing my brain. I look at your picture every day and I remember your advise to not worry about things until they happen. I'm trying so hard to adopt that into my daily life but my rock has gone and I miss you. I'd give anything to have just one more hug with you, just one more conversation, just one more laugh, just one more of your precious smiles. Just one more chance to hold your hand and never let it go. Watching you go was something I will never ever be able to comprehend, the monitor was slowing down and you slipped quietly away from us. I stayed with you for hours as you slept because I couldn't leave. Then I had to give you your dignity and tiptoed out of the cubicle and quietly away from you. I vow to be more like you and am really trying hard to make you proud of me. I'll never get over losing you but I am proud that you are my mum. I love you to the moon and back. I'll look for you when my turn comes mum so please come and find me. Love as always Jacqueline xx

Mum in 2 days time it will be 2 years since you quietly slipped away from us. The pain of losing you hits us all every single day. We miss you so very much and life just isn't the same anymore. I miss you making everything ok in my life, I miss everything about you, you are the best mum anyone could ever wish for. I'm proud of you and I'm proud to be your daughter. I love you but you already know that. Dad is doing an amazing job of keeping the house spotless and you would be very proud of him. Andy and I are delighted with how he is handling everything. I wish I knew that you are fine, I keep looking for those white feathers but I guess you're busy. Please be there to greet us when our turn comes. Until then God bless you my precious angel xx All my love as always your daughter Jacqueline xx

A lovely woman, sadly missed, RIP Paul and Sue

It has been a heartbreaking 8 months since you went away mum. The cavernous hole you left seems to get bigger not smaller. I love you more than words can begin to express. You were and will continue to be my role model, in life I loved you dearly, in death I love you still I always have and always will. We are looking after dad and he’s really doing you proud mum he’s keeping your house very clean and tidy in your memory. Mum rest in peace until it’s time to come to show us the way. All my love now and forever! Your broken hearted daughter.
