Elizabeth who was also known as Betty was such a wonderful woman to all she knew but especially to her family. She was the rock of our family and without her the family just drifted apart.I had the privellage as granddaughter of knowing her for 25 years in which i will cherish forever. She was not only a nanna to me but also like a mam to me . I miss the good times we had she always was laughing and joking . Visiting her at her bungalow was always a pleasure and never a chore. My nanna was diagnosed with cancer on valentines day of 2008 and lost her battle on 22nd august 2008 and although she had a good long life compared to some i thought she would be there forever for me . She was very brave and never lost her dignity even at the end when i was with her . Although i found it really heart breaking the worst part was telling the family that she had slipped away and went to the heavens to meet her husband , who she missed so much when he passed 10 years ago.She was never the same when she lost her sweetheart and now they are together again up in the sky . She will be sadly missed by all and especially her family , she was 1 in a million and forever in our hearts and thoughts xxx
I dont know how to thank you
For the kindness that youve shown,
Ive turned to you so often,
When its hard to be alone.
You helped me face each troubled day,
And every daunting task,
And when i needed comfort,
I didnt have to ask.
Im grateful for your gentle words,
And every caring thought,
But most of all im grateful,
For the warmth of your support.
always on our hearts and so sadly missed
love you so much
from kerry , trev, simon and beth xxx

My Best Friend , My Nanna
The title of this poem says it all,
And when i need you i just call,
There for me in times of need ,
Your always there to take the lead.
You to me are so so dear,
Around you i feel no fear,
In my heart it's so clear,
This is why i keep you close and near.
Good times we always share,
The bad we often bare,
You know i do care ,
For you i'll always be there.
I know it may see im in a dream,
bbbut we do make a good team,
On this i know i cant be wrong,
The bond we have is very strong.
So what have i got left to say,
Only that i love you more each passing day,
So i shout this very loud,
That everyday you make me proud.

Nanna i will always love you and i miss you so much . I know its been 13 months since you passed and i know this sound strange it feels like such a long time since i last saw you but the grief and pain still feels so raw as if you had just passed yesterday . You will always be in my thoughts memories dreams and especially in my heart . I just wish i could have you back here with me but i know that wish could never come true so until the day we meet again i hold you in my heart forever so you can walk the paths of life with me so that i may never feel lonely . love you so much kerry xxxxx
