Thinking of my mum, who died nearly nine years ago, and of my Dad, who still misses her so much.

Especially now, as they were married 60 years ago today.

Other way round for me, Rusty.
Dad died 3 1/2 yrs ago. Mum misses him like mad and so do we all.

My darling brother Simon, died April 2007, never ever forgotten no matter how many more Christmases without you lie ahead.

My lovely mum, died August 1990. I'll always love you Mum but I will never understand why you did it.

Peace and goodwill to all those missing loved ones xx

My dear mum who died three years ago. I find this time of year so hard especially as her birthday is in December as well but I have two precious children, so must carry on for them. Good wishes to all of you who have lost someone close to you x

My lovely Dad who died 9 years ago yesterday.

i wish he'd been alive to see my son who has the exact same wicked sense of humour as my dad had.

and I hope he's looking down and thinking Im doing even half as good a job raising my son as he did bringing me up.

My Mum who died nearly 9 years ago. Her birthday is the 30th too. I think of her everyday but especially christmas as she loved her family so much. I hope she looks down and is proud of her grandchildren who she never got to meet.

Also Nan and Omami who went to a better place this year, I hope you are reunited with your loves and have a great time.

My adorable first boyfriend who I haven't seen for many, many years. The smiley-est boy in the world with a warm care for everyone.

He took his own life a few months ago and I wish I could have fixed it for him. Sleep well x.
