♥ William - Billy - Dad - Grandad - passed away January 5th 1999 after a nasty battle with cancer. He tried so hard to fight it but it was one thing he could not overcome. ♥
♥ We all miss him still, not a day goes by that we don't think of him... he was a major part of all our lives and although he isn't here in body he will always be here in mind. ♥
♥ He had a personality that was loved by all that met him, meaning that he had a lot of friends. ♥ (♥ It was hard not too love him it was just my Grandad, once you met him he left an impression! ♥ )
♥ My Grandad meant the world to me, he was a big part of my life growing up and I hopefully have made him proud of me. ♥

♥ I love you Grandad, all my love Puds x ♥ x ♥ x ♥ x ♥
☆ If every tear we shed for you, became a star up above.☆ You'd stroll in Heavens garden lit with everlasting love ☆ If only we could turn back time, Life once again would be so fine. ☆ Time would pass, you'd still be here, To have, to hold, to love so dear.☆

Do you make them laugh up their,
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 you said and 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 & cried.
We want to tell you something
So there wont be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without...
Your family miss you Angel
Merry Christmas to you & your family
Love Violet

Please do not be unhappy,
just because I’m out of sight,
remember I am with you,
every morning noon and night.
The day I had to leave you,
when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me,
and said I welcome you.
I will be beside you,
every day, week and year,
and when you’re sad I’m standing there
to wipe away the tear.
To my very many friends,
trust God knows what is best,
I’m still not far away from you,
I’m just beyond the crest.
And when you are walking down the
street and you’ve got me on your mind,
I’m walking in your footsteps
only half a step behind.
There are rocky roads ahead of you,
and many hills to climb,
but together we can do it,
taking one day at a time.
Afternoon Hayley hope your having a lovely day, my love to you XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Hiya Grandad
Hiya Grandad,
You'd be so proud of me, I have got a new job - working for Mereyside Police! Can you believe it!!
Can't wait to start - which is on Monday! Only found out yesterday!!
-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x--x-x-
Still miss you like crazy! There's just a big void in our lives and that is where you should be!
Night night Grandad!
See you in my dreams hopefully.
Hayley
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
I need you...
Hi Grandad,
:( The news I got today has hurt me so bad, I feel awful!!
Oh I need you so bad! I really need your reassuring cuddle!
I don't know what to do with myself.
If you where here it would be so much easier, a few kind words and a cuddle then everything would feel so much easier.
I love you with my whole heart, please keep us all safe.
Sweetdreams,
All my love,
Hayley x x x x
Missing you....
Hey Grandad,
Missing you loads, your always on my mind.
See you in my dreams.
All My Love,
Puds x x x x

You never said 'Im leaving',
You never said 'Goodbye',
You were gone before we knew it,
And why,God only knew why,
A million times we've needed you,
A million times we've cried,
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still,
In our hearts you hold a place,
That no Nan could ever fill,
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didnt go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day god called you home,
sweet dreams
xXxX

Hey Hayley.
My daughters miss their Grandad so much too.
always remember his smile because he is watching over you. take care. xxxx
Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other
That we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes
We enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me,
Let my name be ever the household word that
It always was.
Let it be spoken without effort,
Without the trace of a shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant
It is the same as it ever was
There is absolutely unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind because I am
Out of sight? I am but waiting for you
For an interval
Somewhere very near
Just around the corner .
All is well.
Hiya Grandad,
Just to let you know I got a puppy yesterday...
a little Westie, called her Tilly.
She's so tiny!!
You'd love her, took her 2 see Nan before and as always Nan didn't like her (Coz she doesn't like dogs in general!)
Anyways.... I love you with all my heart (and when Tilly's had her needles I'll bring her to see you)
All my love,
Hayley x x x x
