My dad was taken to University Hospital of North Durham on 1st October 2009 and sadly passed away on the 4th October. He had been poorly for sometime however his last illness and passing was a complete shock to all his family and friends.
My dad was a big man with an even bigger heart, he was always the life and soul of the party. Everyone who had the honour to meet my dad would describe him as a joker and had a larger than life personality.
My mum; Ann, myself, Heather, Holly, Blair and Vera where with him in his last moments and he was never alone. We all love my dad with all our hearts and will miss him so much.

God saw your Dad getting tired; a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around him and whispered "come to me".
With tearful eyes you watched him suffer and saw him pass away.
Although you loved him dearly, you couldn't make him stay.
His golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest.
God broke your hearts to prove to you,
He only takes the best.

Thanks to a family friend Dionne Connolly for the above poem, which simply says it all x

I love you Dad, forever in my thoughts.

Not forgotten

People think we have forgotten
When at times they see us smile
Little do they know the heartache
That our smiles hide all the while
To some you may be forgotten
To others a part of the past
But to those who loved and lost you
Your memory will last and last

Simply missing you xxx

He is remembered every single day
With all the things he used to do and say,
Life has been so empty since he went away.
We will forget him? Absolutely No Way!

Hi Dad, I haven't been on for a while, I haven't had much to say. I have been to see you a few times and just sat with you watching the water. I'm going to bring the boys to see you next week. Wish you could reply and tell me what you've been up to. You haven't been in my dreams either Dad, I feel like I've lost you all over again. You used to be in my dreams all the time, come back Dad I miss you xxx
