My lovely Dad passed away on the year of the Millenium he had been poorly with bladder cancer but had been given the all clear about two weeks before. He had told my mum he was going downstairs to sit in his chair because he didn't feel well he had flu symptoms when she got out of bed an hour later she was on her way to the kitchen to make a cup of tea when she noticed my Dad sitting in his chair reading a letter but she thought there was something funny because his cup was lying tipped over on the floor and he would never have left it like that. When my mum went in to see my Dad he was just lying in the chair his lips were blue and he was unresponsive although my brother was given instructions over the phone by the ambulance service we couldn't bring my lovely Dad back he was gone they worked on him for ages before going to hospital but he was dead it was so quick no time to say goodbye.I no longer celebrate New Years Eve it brings back memories of my dad's death i remember coming out of the morgue after having to go and see my Dad and being wished a Happy New Year by some passing people in the corridor and thinking Happy New Year we just identified our Dad its not happy the tears just ran from all our eyes we couldn't wait to get home I remember standing at the window of my Mum's bedroom on the Millenium watching the fireworks going off and thinking Dad would have loved this he loved fireworks and he really wanted to see the Millenium. I miss him so much my heart was broken when he died

Friendship angel poem :
When I have no one to turn to
And I am feeling kind of low,
When there is no one to talk to
And nowhere I want to go,
I search deep within myself
It is the love inside my heart
That lets me know my Angels are there
Even though we are miles apart.
A smile then appears upon my face
And the sun begins to shine.
I hear a voice, so soft and sweet
Saying, 'Everything will be just fine'
It may seem that I am alone
But I am never by myself at all.
Whenever I need my Angels near
All I have to do is call.
An Angel's love is always true
On that you can depend.
They will always stand behind you
And will always be your friend.
Through darkest hours and brightest days
Our Angel's see us through
They smile when we are happy, and will cry when we are blue..
Thanks for being my Angel my friend
I will be there for you until the end.

The Gift
� Lea Gomez
I will never say goodbye to you my Father
cause I know this is not the end for us to see each other.
You will only be going to a place where there’s no pain nor suffering.
I am happy for you, for you will be with God.
For now we need to go in separate ways.
I remember how your arms held me and gave me strength.
You were always there to listen, love, and defend me in everything.
You were my very best friend.
In my triumphs you were always proud.
I’m very grateful and proud to call you my dad.
Here deep inside my heart you’ll always be.
I would give up everything I have just to hug you one more time.
I remember the last time I held your hand and how you looked at me in the eyes.
If only I could turn back the time I would have never let you go.
I felt the world stops and my heart stop beating when they told me you’re gone…….
How I wish I was only dreaming.
Just like the rain; tears fell down from my eyes, I couldn’t speak for a while.
Thank you Dad….
For always understanding, listening , caring, and loving me for the rest of your life.
The greatest gift God gave me was YOU…….. my Dad…
It’s difficult to let you go but I must…
I must return the gift God gave me…
Till then;
See you in Heaven………
Auntie sue's right none of us celebrate new year any more as there's nothing much to celebrate at that time of year since you passed over but i'm grateful in the known that as we all spent the time together as a family as you would have wanted, that you had grandma and family with you too. love and miss you as always xxxx
I'M SPENDING CHRISTMAS WITH
JESUS CHRIST THIS YEAR
I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below;
With tiny lights like Heaven's stars
reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular
please wipe away that tear;
For I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear;
But the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir up here.
For I have no words to tell you
the joy their voices bring;
It is beyond description
to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
but please remember dear,
That I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I cannot tell you of the splendour
of the peace inside this place;
Can you just imagine Christmas
with Our Saviour, face to face?
I will ask Him to light your spirit
as I tell Him of your love;
So pray for one another
as you lift your eyes above.
Please let your hearts be joyful
and let your spirit sing;
For I am spending Christmas in Heaven
And walking with the King
Christmas With the King
To my dearest family that I left behind,
I need to touch your heart tonight.
For it's Christmas and you're missing me,
And the season doesn't seem so bright.
While others are celebrating the holiday,
you find it hard to do the same.
You watch other families gather in splendor,
while you tearfully mention my name.
I know it was painful for you this year,
to decorate your Christmas tree.
For you cried as you hung each ornament.
Your thoughts were focused on me.
You shopped for presents for others.
Although you felt out of place.
When each day was over,
I could see loneliness written on your face.
You can't seem to get into the spirit.
To enjoy any festivities this year.
But think of the Christmases in the past,
and you'll feel my presence near.
Yes, and I come tonight to let you know
I'm happier than I could ever be.
I'm spending my Christmas in Heaven;
With the one who died for me.
So go out and feel that Christmas cheer.
Listen to the choirs as they sing.
And know that I'm happier than I've ever been...
Spending Christmas with the King.
Written by Kaye Des'Ormeaux
on your 10th anniversary
It'll be 10yrs on the 30th December Dad but the memory is etched in my mind as if it was yesterday when i got that awful phone call from Mum telling me to come home she had something to tell me but i didn't need to come home i knew my precious lovely dad had gone without saying goodbye we no longer celebrate New Year's Eve its not the same I prefer to be in a different country if i can Dad its easier to cope with.
i will always miss you with all my heart dad but i know we will meet again one day.
