The obituary notice of Josephine Shirley THOMAS

Mum, the years are passing us by, but the pain of losing you doesn't get any easier. You are so missed, every day and in every way. We are looking after dad he's 94 this year ( as you know ) he struggles with missing you, Andy is doing well ( but obviously missing you so much too ) Jenna and her partner Rob are now married, and have a gorgeous baby boy called Jack. Mum i know you are watching us from heaven, but I wish you were here. I'm struggling too, because I lost not only the best Mum in the world, but my best friend too. Until we meet again I will tell you every day, how much I LOVE YOU ❤️

Mum it has been a little over 8 years since you grew your angel wings and took flight and the days pass by in a blur....we never get over the loss but we have to learn to live with it. The ache in my heart is a constant reminder of how much I truly love you....although you are gone from our sight you are never gone from our hearts because we loved you then, we love you still, always have and always will..... you are the best mum and friend any daughter could ever wish for....all my love forever Jacqueline ❤️

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
