In loving memory of a dear husdand
simly the best

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I cannot bring the old days back,
when we where all together,
but memories of you dear bobby
will remain with me forever
a life so true,a heart so kind,
these are the memories you left behind
deep in my heart your memory is kept
i loved you too dearly to ever forget
in my heart you will always stay,
loved and remembered every day.
there is much in life that alters
much in life thats new
but one thing that never alters
are the memories i have of you
i cannot halt the hands of time
or live again the past
but deep in my heart are memories
that will forever last
as each day dawns and starts a new
and as it closes i think of you
in the house no matter where
deep in my heart you are always there


The pearly gates were opened
a gentle voice said "come"
and with farewells unspoken
you gentle slipped away
some day i hope to meet you
some day i know not when
to hold your hand in the better land
and to never part again
take him in your arms dear lord
hold him close with love
tell him how i miss him lord
until i meet you dear bobby
my one and only true love

i'm thinking of you today Daddy,
But that is nothing new
For i thought about you yesterday
and the day before that too
I'll be thinking about you tomorrow
As i will my whole life through
For the day i fail to think of you
Will be the day God calls me too
The next time we meet again daddy
Will be at heaven's door
And when i see you standing there
I'won't cry any more
I'll put my arms around you and
kiss your smiling face
And the piece of my broken heart
Will all fall in to place

They say there is a reason'
They say that time will heal,
But niether time nor reason,
Will change the way we feel,
For no-one knows the heartache
That lies behind our smiles
No-one knows how many times
We have broken down and cryed
Loving you is easy i do it every day
But its the heartache of losing you
That never goes away
I want to tell you something
So there won't be any dought
Your so wonderful to think of
BUT SO VERY HARD TO LIVE WITH OUT

you where called so suddently
no time to say goodbye
you had so much to live for
and yet you had to die
quickly and suddenly came the call
your suddent death surprised us all
dearest to memory than words can tell
the loss of a father i loved so well
i did not know the pain you bore
i watched as you died
i only knew you passed away
and never said goodbye
to think i could not say goodbye,
will always bring regret
BUT THE HEART THAT ALWAY 'S LOVED YOU DADDY
WILL NEVER EVER FORGET YOU .

If tears could build a stairway
and memories a lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
to bring you back again
no farewell words were spoken
no time to say good bye
you where gone before i knew it
and only god knows why
my heart still aches with sadness
and secrets tears still fall
what it means to lose you
no one will ever know
i would have held you closer
if i had only known
memories of wonderful years
the grieve and the sorrow
for what i had lost on that sad day
a loving father i was so proud off

thank you for your support

Although you are a friend of mine
and candles we exchange
I wouldn't know you on the street
and doesn't that seem strange? ♥♥

♥♥ You hold a place within my life
unusual and unique
we share ideals and special dreams
and still we do not speak ♥♥

♥♥ I picture what I think you are
perhaps you picture me
an intriguing game for both of us
for someone we can't see ♥♥

♥♥ So for this friendship we possess
we owe this mail a debt
perhaps the charm lies in the fact
that we have never met ♥♥


love to you and George ;;;;; Alison xxxxxxxxxxxxx

The wind whispers
close to us
and tell us
you are fine

Everytime the sun
comes out
its your angel
making it shine

~A butterfly came floating by and I thought I knew its face, it landed on my shoulder and spread its wings of lace, I looked and saw it smiling as it winked and flew away, i'm sure I heard it whisper we WILL meet again one day ~goodnight and god bless xxx

♥ If we could wish upon a star ♥
♥ we would wish for you back here ♥
♥ we know you're happy where you are ♥
♥ But we miss you and want you near ♥

♥ Although we see you everyday ♥
♥ In our thoughts and in our dreams ♥
♥ we miss you more than words can say ♥
♥ It just gets worse, it seems ♥

♥ we try to be strong for others around ♥
♥ But all we want to do is cry ♥
♥ we just sit for hours by ourselves ♥
♥ And ask the question 'Why'? ♥

♥ It's the strongest pain we;ve ever felt ♥
♥ we don't think we could describe it ♥
♥ Although we try, we do our best ♥
♥ we don't think we can hide it ♥

♥ our live;s will never be the same ♥
♥ That's why it's hard to bear ♥
♥ Because since the day you left us ♥
♥ we think life's so unfair ♥

♥ Some things seem not to matter now ♥
♥ Even things that mattered before ♥
♥ You have no idea what we would give up ♥
♥ To make this pain less sore ♥

♥ People say we'll meet again ♥
♥ And yeah we know that's true ♥
♥ But we wish it didn't have to be this way ♥
♥ Because you know how much we miss you ♥

♥ we love you with all my hearts and soul ♥
♥ And there's one thing you need to know ♥
♥ There's not one person in the human race ♥
♥ That could ever take your place ♥

We never stop to measure
Anything we might just miss
But if the wind should blow by softly
You'll feel an Angel's Kiss.

A Kiss that's sent from Heaven
A Kiss from up above
A Kiss that's very special
From someone that you love.

For in your pain and sorrow
A Kiss will help you through
This Kiss is very private
For it's meant for only you.

So when your heart is heavy
And filled with tears and pain
And no-one can console you
Remember once again.

About the one you grieve for
And so sadly miss
That gentle breeze you took for granted
Was your Angel's Kiss.


love as always Alison xxxxxxxxxxxxx

you left without a last goodbye;
And all we could do was sit and cry;
Tears they fall like pouring rain;
our hearts are broken and so in much pain,
♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥

we longed to go back to yesterday;
To show we love you some other way;
But now we know we must go on;
For we cant get back now what is gone.
♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥

love as always Alison xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Alison Evans (Friend) February 28, 2009

we cant bring back yesterday
Or stop these falling tears
our love for you continues to grow
Even though its been a years

we cant let go, we wont let go
No matter what they say
our love for you lives on and on
Each and every day

we hear them say we must move on
But it all falls on deaf ears
0ur hearts are yours and always will be
For the remainder of our years;;

~~ ♥ ~~ WHATS IT LIKE THIS PAIN ~~ ♥ ~~

IT'S LIKE:
A hole with no bottom
A hill with no top
A road with no bend
A night with no end.

It's as if its not happened
It's as if its not true
Its' as if its a dream
Yet a numbness seeps through.

There's a feeling of emptiness
A gap to be filled
There's a feeling of loneliness
That cannot be filled.

They say time"s a healer
How long will it take?
I cant see it ending
It's a permanent ache.

Life as no meaning
Yet it as to go on
I find it so hard
I feel so alone.

No one will ever know
The depth of my sorrow
I just have to trust
There'll be a better tomorrow.

May god give me strength
To keep on going
To get through this pain
To feel real again.

I'll never get over it
Of that I am sure
But I'll give time a chance
And hope for a cure.

Time's without end
Love is too
I'll never forget you
I'll always miss you...
~~ ♥ ~~

~~ ♥ ~~ THATS WHAT ITS LIKE ~~ ♥ ~~
