my dad was known as tom the milkman, he liked a pint and a laugh, in october 2008 he was dagnosed with a brain tumour with a very poor prognosis. He took it in his stride and after a brave battle he finally lost his life to the disease in june 2009, He is dearly missed and loved and has now joined my son his grandson jack in heaven, he took jacks death very badly in 2006 and hopefully now they are both playing football in heavens garden.

Dad you left behind a heartbroken daughter, your grandchldren stacey,daniel,katie-jay who will not remember you but i will tell her all about you when she is older, your brother steven and your niece emma and nephew chris. i hope you are reunited with nanna and jack and ann and are having lots of fun xxxxx

Waiting at the Door

I can’t explain so deep inside
The very fabric of my soul
Only a heart that grieves such loss
Can ever truly understand

It’s like you’re waiting at the door
Until a loved one comes back home
You feel a longing in your heart
When they appear the longing stops

But in a loss that never ends
You’re always standing at that door
You feel the longing in the breeze
So incomplete and never filled

I cannot find the words to say
Just what it’s like to want forever
Never seeing them again
Just always waiting at the door
