Missed by all who knew and loved him. My Dad worked for Balfour Beatty all his life, he worked his way up through the company and loved his work. He was a dedicated son. He left behind 2 daughters, 2 sons, 3 grand-daughters, 3 grandsons and a great grandson that he never got to meet. We all miss him dearly. R.I.P. Dad xx
"The Best"
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
and He whispered “Come to Me”
With tearful eyes we watched you.
We watched you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard-working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He chose to take the best.
It’s lonesome here without you
we miss you more each day.
Life doesn’t seem the same
since you have gone away.
When days are sad and lonely
and everything goes wrong,
we seem to hear you whisper
“Cheer Up and Carry On”
Each time we see your picture
you seem to smile and say,
“Don’t cry, I’m in God’s hands,
we’ll meet again someday!”
Happy Father's Day
You are not forgotten loved one
Nor will you ever be.
As long as life and memory last
I will remember thee.
♥ May the winds of love ♥
♥ blow softly and whisper ♥
♥ in your ear how much ♥
♥ we love and miss you ♥
♥ and wish that you were here♥
♥xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx♥

Grandad
I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you
His weary hours and days of pain,
His troubled nights are past,
In our aching hearts we know,
He has found sweet rest at last.
Your smile has gone forever,
And your hand I cannot touch,
I have so many memories,
Of you, Dad, I loved so much.
I did not see you close your eyes,
Or hear your last faint sigh,
I only heard that you were gone,
Too late to say goodbye.
In my heart your memory lingers,
Sweetly tender, fond and true,
There is not a day, dear Father,
That I do not think of you.
My heart still aches in sadness,
My silent tears still flow,
For what it meant to lose you Dad
No one will ever know.
Father
Dear father you are not forgotten,
Though on earth you are no more,
Still in memory you are with us,
As you always were before.
