Also our Mum Joan Morgan, reunited with Dad on 25th May 2008.
RIP Mum and Dad
Our dad was a wonderful man, he had 5 children, Janet, Ian, Alec, Christine and Melanie. 11 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren.
SADLY DAD PASSED AWAY ON THE 16.6.05
We noticed dad losing weight about Christmas 2004 it was the second week in may 2005 when Mel went around to do some cleaning and noticed dad didnt seem right the next day Mel phoned the doctor and the doctor came out ,Mel phoned to say they were waiting for the ambulance.
when dad got tho the hospital they done xrays and tests and finally that night they told us he had pneumonia and they had put a drip on him with some strong antibiotics in it. and said that he will be fine
so we were relieved, but a couple of days later the doctor said they wanted to do an MRI scan on him.
we waited over a week for the results of the scan, we thought if they found anything wrong they would let us know, then one afternoon when me and Mel were visiting dad the doctor came in and said to dad "I'll take your daughters into the office they want to know the results of your scan".
so off we went into the office with the doctor, well talk about being blunt, the doctor come straight out with " your dads riddled with cancer ". I went numb, I could see the doctors mouth moving but i couldn't hear anything, then Mel asked the dreaded question, " how long has he got " then quite bluntly the doctor said "2 weeks you'll be lucky if he lasts a month" well we just cried and cried, we told the doctor we didnt want dad to know how long he had , we couldnt go back into the ward to see dad the state we were in so we went outside the hospital and phoned our brother Alec, Christine was on holiday but we phoned her to let her know, and dad had a twin brother who lived in wales and we let him know.
me and mel pulled ourselfs together a bit and went back up to the ward to see dad it was so hard to walk back into the ward the doctor was with dad so dad knew by the time we came in that he had cancer .i said i had to go and mel came down with me ,mels husband was bringing our mum to visit dad she didnt know the results. i stayed at the hospital down stairs mum turned up and mel had to act as normal in front of mum they went up to see dad and mel had to tell mum as dad couldnt, mum couldnt take it in .
the next day dad said he wanted to come home so we moved his bed downstairs and got his room ready and then we brought him home, then on the saturday his brother came down and they said their last goodbyes, what a sad day that was.
from that day dad got weeker, he kept saying i know the pain is there but i cant feel it. me mel and christine were with him every day, we used to leave about 9 oclock every night after giving him his tablets then after we had gone ian would put him to bed then we would return about 9 in the morning still not thinking the doctor was right with his dates. then on the wednesday night he said " i think i will go and have a nice bath " but he couldn't lift hes head off the pillow so i gave him a nice wash and mel massaged his feet then we tucked him into bed and said goodnight, he thanked us for all we had done for him and we went home. i went to bed that night and couldn't rest i said to my husband i should be with him but if i went back over there that time of night dad would have wondered what was the matter, so i thought no ill go over in the morning,
I got up early that day and thought ill pop down the local shop quick then go over to dad, while i was in the shop my mobile rang it was mum she said we cant wake ya dad, my heart stopped i said ill be over in a minute, i popped home first then all of a sudden my phone rang it was the macmillan nurse to say dad was gone.
that was 13 days after the doctor had told us he had 2 weeks to live.
that was the day our world fell apart
ps: i told mel on that day at the hospital when we were told the bad news, that i might be the eldest but im not the strongest. i'd just like to say I love you so much mel without you i could never of got through it like i did without you.

MUM slowly went down hill from that day, eventuly she ended up at no fault of ours in a residential home in september 2007, she made friends there but we knew in our minds that she didnt like it there.
Then on 23rd may 2008 the residential home called for ambulance to take her to hospital with a stomach bug. she was extremely dehidrated and it turned out to be a very serious urin infection,she deteriated very fast within a day and had laboured breathing and went into a semi coma. and then peacefuly passed away at 7:30 am on 25th may 2008 to be with dad.
She is happy now and they are together again.
IN LOVING MEMORY TO A WONDERFULL HUSBAND ,DAD ,GRANDAD & BROTHER WHO IS VERY DEARLY MISSED , ALWAYS IN OUR THOUGHTS AND FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS . GOD BLESS ,SWEETDREAMS XXX

Gone but not Forgotten
Always you will be part of me and I will forever feel your strength when I need it most. You're gone now, gone but not forgotten, I can't say this to your face but I know you hear. I'll see you again. You never really left I feel you walk beside me. I know I'll see you again when I'm lost. When I'm missing you like crazy I tell myself I'm so blessed to have had you in my life. When I had the time to tell you, I never thought I'd live to see the day when the words I should have said would come to haunt me in my darkest hour. I tell myself I'll see you again, I will see you again. I miss you like crazy, you're gone but not forgotten. I'll never forget you. I feel you walk beside me, you'll never leave me and I'll never leave you. Gone but not forgotten...
*+* Christmas Angels *+*
The Choirboys sang 'O Holy Night'
It brought a tear to my eye
It brought back the memories of you and me
And our Christmas's gone by
Their beautiful voices echoed all around the church
They were singing like angels above
I knew i wasn't the only one that night
Who was missing someone they love
As the choirboys voices silenced
The gathering stood silent and still
The Priest said that was for your angels
As hurting eyes began to fill
He told us our angels were by our side
I wish that was so true
Because if they were here with us now
We wouldn't feel the hurt we do
We left the church that evening
Knowing others were feeling the same way
And they'll be missing someone that they love
When they awake on Christmas Day
So as always Our Heavenly Angels
Will be remembered again this year
And we'll go through another Christmas time
Just wishing we had you here
** aj09 **
From our home to yours we wish you a peaceful Christmas and send our love to you for 2010.
Sunday Poem
A Love to be taken was out of our control
The Lord came lovingly and took your soul
In came the silence as the angels crept
And raised you from where you silently slept
Quietly we whispered that we loved you
Until the point you were out of view
A final glimpse as the sparkle goes out
You will be loved there we have no doubt
We never wanted to lose someone so dear
God took your life but he left your love here.
aj09
We wish that we could see you
For just a little while
We wish that we could hug you
And see your loving smile
But wishing gets us nowhere and longing is in vain
So we will hold you in our hearts until we meet again.
Love always x
Rest In Peace Leonard & Joan
Heaven you hold something special
You've left me with an empty space
You’ve taken the joy out of my life
And a love I cannot replace
Thankyou Jan & Mel

My Christmas Wish For You
My Christmas wish for you, my friend
Is not a simple one
For I wish you hope and joy and peace
Days filled with warmth and sun
I wish you love and friendship too
Throughout the coming year
Lots of laughter and happiness
To fill your world with cheer
May you count your blessings, one by one
And when totaled by the lot
May you find all you've been given
To be more than what you sought
May your journeys be short, your burdens light
May your spirit never grow old
May all your clouds have silver linings
And your rainbows pots of gold
I wish this all and so much more
May all your dreams come true
May you have a Merry Christmas friend
And a happy New Year, too.

A candle to remember
A candle to remember, may it burn ever so bright
As we look to the heavens on this very night.
Beyond the stars, our dear mum and dad soars
Embraced by their Savior on heaven's shores.
As the angels protect them and sing their sweet name
We honor there life with the glow of this flame.
So we light this candle for our Mum and Dad tonight
As a symbol of our love and their eternal life.
