Christmas stars for loved ones

Every year my local church puts up a memorial Christmas tree, you write a loved ones name on a star and they are remembered in the Christmas eve service, and every year I ask if any one here would like me to add the name of a loved one no longer here to it.

So today the tree has gone up and I have added my dad, my father in law, my Nanna, my best friend, and three other friends sadly no longer here.
If any one would like me to add a loved one post here and all will be added by Christmas by Christmas eve

Could you please add my two sons?

Thank you so much - even after all these years Christmas hurts like hell. I really appreciate a chance to 'remember and respect' my beloved sons. xxxxx

An amazing thread full of support

Could I please be cheeky and add a link to our very special thread - bereaved mums thread - but believe me, everybody who has been affected by the loss of a loved one is always made welcome. xxxx
