The Day You Went Away
Today brings tears and memories
A day filled with such sadness it's not easy to forget
For everyone whose lives you touched has always loved you so and it was hard to accept that you'd ever have to go
And so this message is just for you especially to say
The worlds lost someone wonderful the day you went away.
Love you, miss you always,
Your loving Mum xxx

It is time again my sweetheart, I still miss you so very much. I had a strange dream of you last night it is the first time I ever remember you visiting me I know you knew how lonely I was last night as Kevin was in lock down in the nursing home and I haven't been able to visit him now for 4 days I'm missing him terribly as I do miss you in my life. He had a terrible fall and hit his head and bled for 3 1/2 days because of blood thinners which caused a stroke lost a lot of memory and his essential body functions, but he is alive and as you know he is the love of my life as you all are to me. Today as always is very stressful for me as don't have you but know you are waiting for me to join you in the afterlife with the Lord.

Happy Birthday for Yesterday sweetheart, heart of my heart
They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal....But neither time or reason, Will change the way I feel, For no one knows the heartache,
That lies beneath my smile, No one how many times , I've broken down and cried.
I want to tell you something, So there won't be any doubt...
You're so wonderful to think of, But so hard to live without.

Well sweetheart back again with another Easter just passed, I am really feeling the loss you not being here always expecting your phone calls, have a very lonely life without you.

I am very lonely when I don't have contact with Ollie or Todd and Lee who is a beautiful young man, I feel the love from him. never forgets to tell me on every contact, although Ollie's texts he always puts Love Ollie, maybe mumma bear is watching.

Another Anniversary Paul it is just as raw it was when you passed
I would give my life to have you back
I cry each night for you
I pray for the day that I can see you again
I close my eyes and I can see you
You are the first person I loved when you were born
You were always there when I needed you and you always knew when I needed a hug
I am always here for you in my heart and soul
You did not take my heart with you, you left yours with mine to look after
One day you will take your hand and lead me to paradise but until then my beautiful son when I want to see you I only need to close my eyes.

Hello my sweetheart son PAUL,
Kevin and I drove to Lucky Bay S.A. in the beautiful Subaru Forester we purchased with the money given to us from our grandson Ollie to have a beautiful Christmas with Todd and Tanya, Ollie and his girlfriend Tash joined us on Boxing day. Really a beautiful couple.
We have never enjoyed such a Christmas like this one it brings back so many memories of our family all together when you were all growing up.
The food was superb also the preparation all cooked by Todd and Tanya, we missed having you there but we know you were there in spirit we had a seat at the table for you. The time with everyone except you Maria and your dad was so precious to me.
We travelled to Canberra to see Maria which was very precious, also to Tamworth to visit Kevin's four sisters and we were home for your anniversary New Year's Day. I miss and Love you so very much always in my heart and never ever forgotten. xxx

You realise how much you truly miss someone when something happens good or bad and the only person you want to tell is the one person who isn't here.
The hardest part wasn't losing you, it was learning to live without you.
September 9, 2016
September 9, 2016
I hide my tears when I say your name, but the pain in my heart is still the same. Although I smile and seem care free there is no one who misses you more than me.
It's hard to forget someone who gave me so much to remember
Every day that passes brings me closer to seeing you in heaven.

I am writing this tribute for my beautiful friend and second mother to my son Paul, Her name is Irene, mother to John, Catherine and Lisa who where always a big part of our family friendship. John and Paul were always great friends from the time they went to the same schools and played on the same sport teams. Paul was always there for John and visa versa. Paul was best man at John's wedding to Tina.
As they got older and Paul got sick John was always there for Paul.
