Well, we had to say goodbye Mum. I just wish we could have our last day all over again. I will look after your house for you and I have invited Barbara there for a cup of tea and a chat on Tuesdays. I told her she can have 'her' cup so that she thinks of you daily. Yesterday was perfect and I know you would have approved of everything that we chose for you. I know you had an input too the three birds flying up to the window the birds flying in the night sky and the beautiful sun setting on the horizon. You use to say to me I bet there won't be many people at my funeral, well you were wrong Mum, there was so many family, friends and neighbours from the past and present. You were a very special person to so many people Mum. Well I hope you are at peace now Mum. I miss you more and more each day. xxxxxxxx

It's just over a week since you passed away Mum. I cannot believe I will never see you again, this is so hard. I often read our messages to each other on Facebook just so I can feel your presence with me. I just wish I could hear your voice again xxxx We saw Carol from Rowans today and went through your service with her. I know you would have loved the fact that she is going to help us say goodbye to you. MIss you so much Mum xxxxx
