68

Lived in Newport all her life. Brought up in Maindee with her mum and dad and 1 sister Janet.
Was married to my Dad John for almost 48 years and had 7 children (4 boys and 3 girls) raised very
well too by them both. She was a loving Nanna to 19 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren and an
Aunty to many also.
Mum suffered with stomach cancer, which after 5 years being in remission, and devastatingly after
gruelling and intense chemo came back with a vengence and spread to her liver and she sadly passed
on. She loved her bingo and going away every year to Devon in a caravan with Dad and visiting
relatives there. Her last job, which she loved was a Mini Bus Escort for special needs children.

I love her so much and miss her so badly. I thank her for my childhood and all that she was to me,
my Mum, my best friend and was there always when I needed her. God Bless Mum
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Please could you also remember my Nephew ~ Robert Ellender, who we sadly lost 6 months after my
Mum.


I would like to say a big thank you for everyones love and support to myself, my darling mother Val
and my gorgeous nephew Rob .Thank You again so much and my love goes out to you and your angels
also.

My Mothers Angel Day

There is always a face before me,
A voice I would love to hear,
A smile I will always remember,
Of a Mother I loved so dear.
Deep in my heart lies a picture,
More precious than silver or gold,
It's a picture of my Mother,
Whose memory will never grow old.

Love to you on your Angel Day x

For Every Bright Star

For every bright star
In the heavens above
There’s an angel looking down on us
And sending us there love

When you look up to the skies
Someone is looking down
Wanting you to know
That they are still around

Although you cannot see them
They are standing by your side
Knowing all the pain you feel
And the tears you’ve cried

So when you look up to the sky
Up to the heavens above
Remember there watching over you
And thinking of you with love.

*** The day befor ***

Oh Mum, It doesnt feel like three year's, iv been going over this day in my mind all week,the last day i spent with you alive, you were asleep and i had to come back to spain and collect Robert, i knew you didnt have long and Robert would have wanted some time with you, Janet didnt want me to go, asked me to stay, but I had to get Robert myself, break to him myself that he was coming to say goodbye, i cryed all the way home, but it was to late, you left us that evening, god i felt awful, i felt i had cheeted both you and Robert of your time together, (little did i know how soon he would be jioning you )he came to say his farewells, brought you a rose and wrote you a letter which you took with you, i know i wont sleep much tonight, remembering being woken early hours with the news, Im so sorry Mum that i didnt get Robert back sooner, he absolutaly thought the world of you, just like I do, my world has been turned completly upside down since you left, then Robert followed you, WHY MUM, WHY ????????

LOVING AND MISSING YOU NOT JUST TODAY, BUT ALWAYS.

~~ The Angels ~~

May angels rest beside your door
May you hear their voices sing
May you feel their loving care for you
May you hear their peace bells ring

May angels always care for you
And not let you trip and fall
May they bear you up on angels wings
May they keep you standing tall

May they whisper wisdom in your ear
May they touch you when you need
May they remove you from each trace of fear
May they keep you from feeling greed

May they fill you with their presence
May they show you love untold
May they always stand beside you
And make you ever bold

May they teach you what you want to know
About life here and here-after
May they fill you always with their love
And give you the gift of laughter

~~ Angel In My Pocket ~~

I am a tiny angel
I'm smaller than your thumb
I live in peoples pockets
That's where I have my fun

I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect
Though i'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met

Before I was an angel...
I was a fairy in a flower
God himself hand picked me
And gave me angel power

Now god has many angels
That he trains in angel pools
We become his eyes and ears and hands
We become his special tools

And because god is so busy
With way too much to do
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you

When he tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with angel care
Then told me to never leave you
And I vowed always to be there

~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~


~~ Guardian Angels ~~

When angels sense you need them
and angels always do.....
they come unseen from everywhere
to help and comfort you
they hover close beside you
till all your cares are gone
till they can see you're ready
once again to carry on

Then some of them may fly away
and take their gentle touch
to other hearts that need
the love of angels very much
but one at least stays with you
as your constant friend and guide
for guardian angels never leave
they're always at your side

~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~

Do you make them laugh in Heaven,
Does your smile bring them good cheer?
Do you make the sun shine brighter,
Like you did when you were here?

The very mention of your name,
The memories of your smile,
The little things that you did,
Are with us all the while.

You meant so very much to us,
There’s nothing left to say,
Except that without you here
There is no perfect day.

For no one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No one knows how many times
We have broken down and cried.

We want to tell you something
So there won’t be any doubt,
You’re so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.

We hold you close within our hearts,
And there you shall remain.
To walk with us throughout our lives,
Until we all meet again.

Tributes For This Week 12th October

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR MONDAY

Our thoughts are ever with you
Though you have passed away.
And those who loved you dearly
Are thinking of you today.

FOR TUESDAY

Everyday in some small way
Memories of you come our way.
Though absent, you are always near
Still missed, loved and always dear.

FOR WEDNESDAY

We can't have old days back
When we were all together.
But secret tears and loving thoughts
Will be with us forever.

FOR THURSDAY

Thank you for loving and sharing,
For giving and for caring.
God bless you and keep you,
Until we meet again.

FOR FRIDAY

God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you
And whispered "Come to Me".

A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands now rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.

FOR SATURDAY

Little did we know that morning
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you,
But 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 by 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.

FOR SUNDAY

Right now I'm in a different place
And though we seem apart
I'm closer than I ever was
... I'm there inside your heart

I'm with you when you greet each day
And while the sun shines bright
I'm there to share the sunsets, too
... I'm with you every night

I'm with you when the times are good
To share a laugh or two,
And if a tear should start to fall
... I'll still be there for you

And when that day arrives
That we no longer are apart,
I'll smile and hold you close to me
... Forever

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥A

Thoughts Today, Memories Forever
