Joan died suddenly after a very long & brave fight against her illness, she leaves behind a,
Broken hearted husband Mick, also 3 beautiful daughters who all love & miss her terribly, life
without Joan will never be the same, she was devoted to her husband & her girls( always calling
them her bairns ) although they are all adults, they certainly are a credit to her.
I have known Joan for 11 years and she is a very dear & respected friend to both my husband
& myself, she will always have a special place in my heart & I will never forget her, she
was there for me all through my heartache after losing my precious Daughter even though she was
suffering with her illness.
Joan was a loving, caring woman who I am very proud to have had as my friend and I will always look
on her and her family as a unique addition to my own family.
May the lord take special care of this very special LADY until she is reunited with her loving
family once more. R.I.P JOAN MATE I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU WITH LOVE

THIS 1 IS FOR YOU WITH ALL MY LOVE

A Poem From the Heart

This past year has gone so fast,
Memories of you will always last,

I miss your laugh, I miss your cries,
I miss your smile, I miss your sighs,
Bust most of all I miss your hugs,
I miss your kisses and your love,

I miss the beauty of your face,
The way you managed to take over the place.

I miss you mum, with all my heart,
I wish we never were apart,

But until the day we meet again,
My love for you will never end.



I cant believe it has been a year already, it only seems like yesterday, rest in peace mum, no more pain and heartache,

I miss you so so much and my only wish is that you were here to see me grow into what i have now become, I am so proud of myself and I know in my heart that you would be proud of me too. this year has been such a rollercoaster and i have managed to come through the other side, a stronger, more independant woman, just like you.

love always, now and forever

mum, i miss you so much and i am always thinking about you, you are always in my mind and you will NEVER leave my heart. i know you are watching over me and i hope i am doing you proud.

MISS YOU MUM GOODNIGHT

When I think about the old days
I want them back again,
Our house was always happy
And full of laughter then.

We'd all be there together,
Content in every way,
Then the mainstay of the family
Simply went away.

We, all of us, do the best we can
But it will never be the same,
we can't tell you how often
We all still speak your name.

All I wish is that once more
Before I lower the light,
I could only kiss her on the cheek
And say I Love You Mum... Goodnight.

LOVE YOU ALWAYS MUM

A TRIBUTE TO MY VERY DEAR FRIEND

A friend is like a flower, a rose to be exact, or maybe like a brand new gate that never comes unlatched. A friend is like an owl, both beautiful and wise. Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost, whose spirit never dies. A friend is like a heart that goes strong until the end. Where would we be in this world if we didn't have a friend? ALL MY LOVE JACKIE XXX

A poem just for you mate

Once in awhile you find a friend
who's your friend right from the start.
Once in a while the friendship's so strong
it really warms your heart.

Once in a while that friendship lasts
your whole lifetime through.
It only happens once in awhile,
like it happened with me and you.

To the living I am gone,
To the sorrowful, I will never return,
To the angry I was cheated.
But to the happy, I am at peace.
And to the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.
So as you stand upon a shore,
gazing at a beautiful sea,
Remember Me....
Remember Me in your heart, in your thoughts,
And the memories of the times we loved,
The times we shared, the times we laughed,
The times we sang.
For if you always think of Me,
I will have never gone....
