My mum. My best friend.
A talented and gifted lady, specialising in music. She was a music teacher in various schools, and
also taught piano lessons privately. She brought her gift of music to many children helping them
also enjoy what she loved.
Mum has 2 children, my brother and myself, and 5 grandchildren,and 2 great grandchildren, 1 of her
greatgrand children is in spirit, as he was still born only 6 weeks ago.
Mum had a great sense of humour, and despite her disability, scoliosis of the spine ( curvature for
those who dont know what scoliosis is) she never allowed it to affect her, a really brave lady.
She lived her life to the full the brief 57 yrs she had here on earth.
She knew her 1st grandson Rob, my son now aged 22 yrs, and also my daughter Cathy, now aged 18yrs,
she also lived to see the birth of my nephew Stephen, now aged 10 yrs, and my nephew James now 9 yrs
old today the day after mum's b'day!
She didnt live to see her 2nd grand daughter Sarah Jayne, now 5, or her 2 great grand children Alfie
aged 2 and a half or baby Jack who was still born.
Photo I'm putting is of Mum with her 1st 2 grandson's.
Just got back home from your fav place- IOW.
Hello Mum.
I took Cathy and Dave and Alfie and Rob to the Isle of Wight- your favourite place for a few days and we just got back earlier tonight.
I cried for you whilst we were there. :-(
I remembered all the places we used to go, and you loved! I miss you so so so very much mum, it's heart breaking that you are not here.
I miss calling your name.........'' Mum'' ........I miss YOU!
Sorry for all the times we argued, sorry for all the times I got stressed and took it out on you. :-(
How I wish I could turn back the clock, and you would have been there with us in your fav place, arguing over where we would visit!
I can almost hear you now, saying ''why didnt you take Alfie to the little steam railway at Havenstreet?''.
Bidders would have liked showing Alfie the little trains........the ones we took Bidders on when he was Alfie's age! :-)
But mum you saw me take them all to the Needles, which you also loved, and the chair lift! Dave and Rob went on the chairlift! I know you would really had got on well with Dave, as you and he are both ''come on lets get on with things people!!!''
Zero tolerance of laziness and sitting on one's butt when there are places to visit etc!
Cathy bought a beautifully worded plaque for Jack's garden, words which choked me up as I thought of YOU!
It said I will always love you- always will........
I know you would say ''dont be silly old bag, just enjoy it!'' I hope you were saying ''dont be sad cos I'm there with you in spirit''.........and if there is anywhere on this globe you would be......it would be the IOW!
I'm back on the mainland now, now living where Anuty Amy used to live, your mum's sister!
No ferry charges for you eh?
Please float back to mainland and be near me as I miss you like F**K! :-( oops soz!
Your 3rd great grandchild is on her way and will be here soon! Please look over us all for a safe delivery, and take care of Jack for us.
I couldnt miss you any more.................or love you any less........
come to me in my dreams please like you did before!
:-)
Cant wait to see you again..........time is precious and I am here on earth.........but one day.......
In the meantime here is my ''bed note''! As I always used to do.......
Love you MUM.....
Love Jenny. xxx
Were you with us? Cathy and I? Wonder cos......
Hey Mum.
I really missed you today ( 7th Feb) as it's Paul's Birthday. Paul my brother and your son!
Cathy also felt urged to write on here for the 1st time in ages and we both chatted on phone about how we thought of you and missed you. :-(
Were you somehow trying to get through to us?
I also talked to Rob ( Bidders) about you. I cried as re lived when you saw your sister for the last time as I asked Aunty Ruth to come round and see you the week before you died.
Mum I love you soooooo much and miss you like F**k.
Excuse my language!
Remember when we used to laugh that if we swore saying 'fook' it was ok?!
LOL
Love you so much.
Love Jenny xxx

9 years today since you died. feels like yesterday
Hello Mum.
It's been 9 years since you died, 9 years today, 9 years too many.
Thinking of you as I do every day. Not a single day passes without me thinking of you.
I love you SO much and MISS you SO much.
Thanks for being a fantastic mum,
Love Jenny xxx
9th year since you were gone too soon
Hello Mum.
The anniversary of your passing is just over 2 weeks away, on 20th December it will be 9 years.
This time of the year is always so hard for me.
You used to play the piano for carol concerts and even now carols leave me choked up thinking of you.
I love you more than words can say and only miss you more with the passing of each day.
Please give baby Jack an extra big squeeze.
I love and miss you both so much,
and precious memories of you both I hang onto and the fact that you both not here I still find hard to believe.
Love you always
Forget you never
A part of our lives forever and ever.
Love Jenny

Hold on to baby Jack 4 me mum til I get there!
Arh Mum!
You were right. I felt you said to me that Jack's little body would have given him difficulty if he were to be here on earth.
You told me you have him with you. Sad for me but lovely for you!
Will he grow up there in heaven or stay the same? I wish you could tell me!
I used to think that the 'perfect' age is 30, lol!
This is when we are in our prime!
So I'm 11 years past my prime then! LOL
Wrapped up in his tiny body was all he would have been, his litle way's his likes and dislikes!
Hope you are having a good time up there mum, playing with Jack, and speaking to Nan and grandad.
I bet they love Jack too.
Missing you. xxx
Let me introduce Cathy- now a young adult.
Hey Mum.
I hope that you can already see,how your grand daughter Cathy has been maturing!
She was just 9 yrs old when you last 'saw' her properly on earth as we know it.
I'm sure you are so proud of the young woman she is becoming.
Cathy has had the most difficult year this year of her life so far.
Learning that the baby she was expecting might not survive to term, and all the anguish that came with that.
Numerous scans and hospital visits, to keep a close eye on her unborn baby boy.
The climax of it all was having to endure labour after learning that her baby son had passed away, only 2 weeks before his due date.
She has faced so much, and is coping so well.
I dont want her to feel she has to 'cope' as she must let herself cry when she needs to.
Cathy really wishes she could have spent more time getting to know you, it's such a shame really Mum that you have gone so soon.
The good thing is that you are now free from pain.
She holds on to treasures, of memories of good times.
So look down proudly on Cathy, I know you already do, she's a really brave lady,
just like you!

Mum I made u a nanny at aged 43! lol
43 was young a century ago, to be a Nanny!
I was just 19 when I had your 1st grandson Rob!
Although you were cross with me at first, you came round and drove me to the hospital in Farnborough Kent, where I had Rob!
You stayed by my side as I laboured with him, and was the 1st person to hold him.
You remarked that his big blue beadies were there! His big blue eyes!
Beadies became shortened to Bid! Thats why Rob is even called Bid to this very day, now he's 22 LOL
I hope you like my butterfly pressie. My friend Eddy's music is playing on your site, he called it swan song, but it sounds like a butterfly emerging from its crysalis!
I hope you have found your wings mum.
Miss u more than ever. Would love to meet up for shopping etc!
Love u so much old bag.
Love Jen- except you never called me Jen- I was Jenny to you.
So! Love from Jenny.
SO MUCH love to you.
