My kind, gorgeous, lovely Dad

I remember all the things you used to say,
The way you could wipe my tears away.
I remember all the times we shared,
And I knew you were the only person who cared.
I remember always looking up to you,
When I needed advice, I knew yours was true.
Now, when I need help, I don't know what to do;
As fate would have it, I'm living life without you.
I know it's not just me you left,
And the pain I feel I just can't confess.
Our family, our loved ones, all hurt too;
We now no what its like to be without you.

I Love You Dad and miss you so much!

FOR GARY xXx I Love You as BIG as the World

I Love You as BIG as the World
I Love You as deep as the sea
I Love You as bright as the sun
I Love You & I know You Love me
I Love You as blue as the sky
I Love You as long as the days
I Love You as high as the mountain top
I Love You in so many ways
I Love You as strong as the wind
I Love You as soft as the dew
I Love You as far as a star
I Love You because You are You

My special message from Gary

Dear Mr Hallmark

I am writing to you from Heaven, and though it must appear
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card
A card of love for my wife, as she's finding it very hard.

There must be some mistake I thought, I saw every card you could imagine
Except I could not find a card, from a husband who lives in heaven.
She is still a wife too, no matter where I reside
I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she's cried.

I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know
That though I live in heaven now, I still love my wife so.
She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too,
Memories are our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do?

My wife carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight.
She writes poems to honour me, sometimes long into the night
She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells
She writes to other grieving wives, trying to ease their pain as well.

So you see Mr.Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth
I must find a way to remind my wife of her wonderous worth.
She needs to be honored, and remembered too
Just as the children of earth will do.

Thank you Mr.Hallmark, I know you'll do your best
I have done all I can do; to you I'll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me
Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity

My Precious Husband

In my dreams you are alive and well
Precious Gary, My Precious Husband
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious Gary, My Precious Friend
In my soul, there is a hole
that can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
'Cause you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious Gary, you left too soon
Tho it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever...in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious Gary, Precious Lover
But in this world, I was left to grieve
Precious Gary, My Precious Love
God knows I want to hold you
see you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then.
You were My Life.

Darling Husband - it's nearly 2009.....

.... but I hate the thought of leaving you behind in 2008. I'm wishing all our family and friends the very best that 2009 can bring them - but my biggest wish would be to have a lifetime with you again Gary.

My Christmas Wish for Gary

Dear Santa can you see me
With tears upon my face
A heart so badly broken
Missing his embrace

As I write this letter
To express my only wish
Dear Santa please remember
There's only one gift on my list

His smile and his laughter
His hugs and kisses too
Dear Santa I am pleading
To make my wish come true

I haven't been quite perfect
I've tried the best I can
But seeing you are Santa...
You might just change the plan

Each day I wake to sorrow
Pain that I can't flee
Dear Santa I am asking
Could you bring him back to me?

It's been so many months now...
Sometimes as if he was a dream
Dear Santa please consider...
changing this life theme

Dear Santa could you find it...
within your kind warm heart
To bring him home for Christmas...
so we are not apart?

Happy Birthday Sweetheart

It's your first Angel Birthday - I so missed having a birthday cuddle and kiss, making you open your pressies and card before I would let you get up. In fact I just miss 'US'. I miss everything about 'US'.

Hope you have a great party up there later - and I know you'll be the first and last person on the dance floor - you show them how to boogey Babe.

I just wish you were here Gary - if I had one wish it would be to bring you home again - free of pain. IF ONLY.

I'll love you always Babe and I miss you soooo much.
