My Mum was a very special lady who loved with all her heart she was taken far too Soon.She was the type of lady who would have really done anything for anyone friend or stranger...
She got told she had cancer on the 22nd Oct 2007 the day after her 49th birthday and started Chemo in Dec 2007 she was so so brave and never complained once on the 3rd of April 2008 she came off the Chemo the day after it was my brothers wedding and she looked stunning and had the best time she was so very proud,

In Aug 2008 she was in a bit of pain and went to see her doctor who sent her for a scan a few weeks passed she went back to be told she had just 2 - 3 mths to live but yet she never gave up fighting and went on with life as she always did she is a true star. one in a million.
she passed away at home in her sleep at 2:40am on the 4th Dec 2008 with her family by her side...

Mum was really was one of the good one's she loved her family so much and lived for her three beautiful grandchildren Tegan 4, Marley 4 and Macie 2....and was the best grandma they could have ever asked for, the kids miss her so much and are always looking up2 the sky for grandma..
mum was proud of her family and was a excellent Mum, Wife, Grandma, Daughter, Sister , Daughter in law, Auntie And friend i could go on for ever about what a fab brave lady she is but anyone who was lucky enough to know her will already know that

We all miss you so so much mum and it hurts more and more everyday,,

Sleep well beautiful Angel

why the good

This gone too soon page was set up by Kirsty Woods in Memory of her mum Linda. On 4 December 2010 it will be two years since Linda was taken from us. As none of us really know what is out there for us after death. We find ourselves clinging on to the hope that their is a heaven just as we were taught as children. That the picture we have in our minds of angels, peace, love, and eternal life realy does exist. That one day we will all meet again and live and love for eternity.
People say that god only takes the best. But I dont understand why he would want to take the good out of such a troubled world.
Linda was all things to all people. Always offering to help often before she was asked. I was with Linda for 33 years and married to her for 29 of those years. Never once did I see her put herself first. She gave to this life far much more than she ever took out of it. We had three children followed by three grandchildren. Each of them loved in every way possible.
At the tender age of just 50 we lost Linda to secondary cancer of unknown primary. Today is her 52 birthday and how we wish that she could be here to enjoy it. If the picture that we have in our minds of heaven really does exist then
Linda will not be alone. Four weeks ago we lost our youngest daughter Kirsty after what should have been a routine operation. She was just 30 years of age.
Kirsty is a chip off the old block. Much like mother like daughter.

What we have lost even god could not replace. However maybe he could change his tactics. Take all the scum out of the world and leave the good to make the world a better place.
Happy Birthday Linda

We know you are united now with your beautiful daughter Kirsty. Your passing was tragic, Kirsty passing was a travesty. We pray that someday we will be able to understand why this can happen to such a lovely family.Love and Godbless Uncle joe and Betty

Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved ones gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
For as long as there is memory
They'll live on in the heart.. :-(

Always you will be part of me
And I will forever feel your strength
When I need it most
You’re gone now, gone but not forgotten
I can’t say this to your face
But I know you hear

I’ll see you again
You never really left
I feel you walk beside me
Wherever i may be

You are missed more than anyone will ever know
we miss you so much more as the days go on
loving you forever

goodnight mum

I LOVE YOU XXXXXXXXXXXXXxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

If I Knew For Certain

Life for me is empty now
since the day you died
I wish that I could take a flight
to be there by your side

Although the sun is shining
it brings no joy to me
The days all seem so lonely
and I think will forever be

My memories sustain me,
I'm living in the past
I keep reliving again the day
when I saw you last

I know I have to make the best
of the life that I have left
But it's difficult to do
when I'm feeling so sad and blue

I don't know how to shake
this never ending grief
I so envy all the friends of mine
who have a strong belief

If I knew for certain
I would see you again
I think I'd bear more easily
this heartache and this pain.


Forever loved Forever Mised

We all miss you like crazy MUM XXXXxxxxXXXX
