Iris birthday 27-02
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
iris was a special person, someone kind and true,
all though she had problems of her own, she would always have the time
to listen to other peoples problems and help them see them through,
Iris had the patience of a saint, and only ever saw the good side of a person,
Iris thought and worried about every one, and nothing was never to much for Iris to do for a
person,
she would always make sure that she saw it through100%,
All who new Iris loved her, she touched a lot of peoples hearts,
and will be so sadly missed by her sisters, brothers, nephews, and nieces, family friends and
neighbours,
If ever there was an angel here on earth it was Iris,
no one will ever replace Iris, she was one in a million,
Iris main goal seemed to be to make sure she could do her best to keep things running smoothly,
we will always love and miss you Iris, you will never ever be forgotton,
we thought the world of you,you were so greatly loved, and so greatly missed,
when god was making sisters
as far as I can see
he spent a lot of time on one
and saved that one for me
he made a perfect woman
compassionate and kind
with more patience and affection
than you could hope to find
he gave this lovely lady
a heart of solid gold
and after he had finished
he must have broke the mould
you will never be forgotton Iris. our love for you runs so deep
as yours did for us, our darling angel you'll never be forgotton we thought the world of you,now
reunited with mum, dad, joyce, joe, twins,and
Ronnie just two days after
Ronnie Allen
A much loved Dad, brother ,and uncle
Our brother Ronnie who left us so suddenly just a couple of days after
his beloved sister Iris, ronnnie was a kind gentle, caring person
he loved life, and his family.
he was the life and soul of any family gathering,
Ronnie too was loved by many, he was the first to make light of a situation.
he loved to tell jokes, and make people laugh, he did'nt like to see people
look sad, he would help out when he could, Ronnie was diagnosed with a heart problem, but he never
let it get him down, but we could see this was affecting his health,
Ronnie loved to see his two girls, he was so proud of them,
This world will be a sadder place without Iris ans Ronnie
in our lives to share,
our consulation is that they are together, and both went quick,
Ronnie would have found some thing to say about this tragic loss,that would have made us all laugh,
even through our tears, you will never be forgotton Ron we thought the world of you.I lost part of
myself on that friday night and monday morning, and in its place is an overwhelming feeling of loss
and grief. Nothing will ever take that feeling away
Our Dad Our brother Our uncle
as children we had our ups and downs,but the smiles always beat the frowns,
we shared our joys we shared our tears,
we shared each other for many years
your our brother, your our treasure
and our love for you, we cannot measure,
you were so greatly loved, and will be so sadly missed by all who knew you,
you and Iris will be in our hearts always and forever.
we know you both will be looking down on us, and hope you enjoy your big reunion in the sky,
Iris Angela Allen 27-02-1953 11-02-2005
Ronnie Allen 12-02-1956 14-02-2005
Rest in peace my angels
love and miss you so much
untill we meet again xxx
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.
You meant so much to all of us You were special and that's no lie You brightened up the darkest day
And the cloudiest sky Your smile alone warmed hearts Your laugh was like music to hear I would give
absolutely anything To have you well and standing near Not a second passes When you're not on our
minds Your love we will never forget The hurt will not ease in time Many tears I have seen and cried
They have all poured out like rain It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone. A part
of us went with you, The day God took you home. A million times we'll miss you. A million times
we'll cry. If love could have saved you, You you'd still be at our side. WHY???? No farewells were
spoken we did not say good bye you were gone before we knew and only god knows why they say there is
a reason they say that time will heal but neither time nor reason will change the way i feel for no
one knows the heart ache that lies behind our smiles no one knows how many times we have broken down
and cried we hold you close within our hearts and there you shall remain to walk with us through out
our lives until we meet again You left me beautiful memories that make me laugh and cry; But the
love you left with-in my heart; no millionaire could buy. You taught me many thing's in life that I
have yet to do; But you never taught me how to cope With the pain of loosing you.
TRIBUTE FOR THURSDAY 5.11.09
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
The size of sadness
Can you measure our pain?
It reaches the stars and back again
Can you count our tears?
They are as many as winter rain
Can you weigh our emptiness?
The world and more would come to less
With no hope of sun tomorrow
That's how we see our sorrow
Add all together -The size of sadness
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
TRIBUTE FOR FRIDAY 6.11.09.
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
Having you not with me
Hurts more and more each day
Although I feel a closeness
In a very special way
Even as I go to sleep
Every thought is of you
And I never thought i'd miss you
In quite the way I do
So i'm hoping that these words
May some how let you know
That you're in my heart forever
And i'll always love you so
The one and only thing
That helps me with the pain
Is dreaming of the time
When I will see you once again...
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
TRIBUTE FOR SATURDAY 07.1109
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
My love is with you
Oh What can I say?
My heart is empty without you each and every day.
The Angel wings you wear must be so grand,
if only I could reach out and touch your hand,
maybe then we could say goodbye,
which would help dry the tears that I cry
Now I know that’s impossible for us to do,
so let’s make a deal just you and me.
When I look to the stars at night,
you look for me with all your might,
when you see me just shine real bright,
together we can send our love
and say Good Night.
I would like to wish you all a very good weekend and God Bless all our Angels and all our BRAVE HERO'S who have Lost Their Lives.
With love as always Linda.xxx

♥ From Water Bug to Dragonfly ♥
(Tessa Wilkinson)
The bottom of the pond is muddy and dark
There is fear of the unknown
There is loneliness as things change
There is the desperation of being left behind
Not knowing, not understanding
Watching and waiting
Then the journey comes
Up the stem
What waits beyond?
Sunlight
Freedom
Dancing together in joy with those who went before
And who will come after.

Angels
When you were born, an angel smiled,

And, when you died, another angel got their wings.
FOR SATURDAY
Letter From Heaven
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said,
"I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed
While you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
Remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
FOR SUNDAY
Reply to "Letter from Heaven"
My Dearest Loved one:
I received your Letter from Heaven,
It made the teardrops fall.
But knowing you’re with God above,
Sweet memories, I will recall.
I know that you are with me,
For I feel your presence near.
And if I listen closely,
Your voice I then can hear.
I know you’re watching o’er me,
As you promised you would do.
And when I feel so saddened,
It’s your letter that sees me through.
When I lay in bed at night,
The day’s chores put to flight,
I truly feel your presence,
Like a warm and glowing light.
The rocky roads you mentioned,
And the hills that I must climb;
I’ve done exactly what you said,
By taking one day at a time.
I’ve tried to help others,
Who are in sorrow and in pain.
And now I am contented,
My day was not in vain.
I’ll lend a hand, as you have said
When someone is feeling low.
I’ll pray for them and be here,
‘Till on their way they go.
And when it’s time for me to go,
To join you in heaven high.
My wings I shall spread wide,
To my home up in the sky.

Prayer of Faith.
We trust that beyond absence there is a presence.
That beyond the pain there can be healing.
That beyond the brokenness there can be wholeness.
That beyond the anger there may be peace.
That beyond the hurting there may be forgiveness.
That beyond the silence there may be the word.
That beyond the word there may be understanding.
That through understanding there is love.

Memories Of Me
I’d like the memory of me
To be a happy one,
I’d like to leave an afterglow
Of smiles when life is done..
I’d like to leave an echo
Whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
And bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
To dry before the sun,
Of happy memories that I leave behind
When life is done.
FOR SATURDAY
Separated For Now
Although death has separated us physically,
Faith and love have bound us eternally.
Though we cannot see you,
We know you are here.
Though we cannot touch you,
We feel the warmth of your smile,
As we begin a new chapter in our lives.
Today we pause to reflect upon
Those who have shaped our character,
Molded our spirits and touched our hearts.
May the lighting of this candle be a
Reminder of the memories we have shared,
A representation of the everlasting
Impact you have made upon our lives.
FOR SUNDAY
A Special Gift
You were a gift sent straight from Heaven.
Given to us from God above.
We didn't know how much you would teach us
About the meaning of true love...
For true love sometimes means letting go
Of someone precious and dear.
That is what we were forced to do...
Although we wanted to keep you here!!!
However, this is quite a selfish wish.
One we know we should ignore...
But, sweet Angel, we truly do believe
That God must have needed you more...
Perhaps to be an Angel now,
Full of wisdom and love...
Watching over those of us who love you
From the shining stars above.
We miss you more than you can know.
You will never be replaced...
In our hearts and memories forever,
Will be your sweet and innocent sleeping face.

Quietly I Weep
By Lyndie Sorenson
Although I seem to hide it
My sorrow's still so deep
Missing you in silence
Quietly I weep
I long to see your smile
Hear your laughter, hug you tight
But you're no longer with me
You've headed toward the light
I'm sure you are quite happy
Here on earth I miss you so
Asking that same question
Why was it you that had to go?
I am sure there is an answer...
One that might make sense
When others offer reasons
I'm just on the defence
If they could understand me
Know how hard life is with grief
Just hold my hand and listen...
That would be a great relief
Although I seem to hide it
My sorrow's still so deep
Missing you in silence...
Quietly I weep
☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆
♥ Only we who grieve ♥
♥ Tis only we who grieve
♥ They do not leave
♥ They are not gone
♥ They look upon us still
♥ They walk among the valleys now
♥ They stride upon the hill
♥ Their smile is in the summer sky
♥ Their grace is in the breeze
♥ Their memories whisper in the grass
♥ Their calm is in the trees
♥ Their light is in the winter snow
♥ Their tears are in the rain
♥ Their merriment runs in the brook
♥ Their laughter in the lane
♥ Their gentleness is in the flowers
♥ They sigh in autumn leaves
♥ They do not leave
♥ They are not gone
♥ tis only we who grieve.

♥ I Believe ♥
(Written By Skip Ewing and Donny Keyes Copyright 2002)
(Song performed by Diamond Rio)
Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And it's like you haven't been gone
A moment from my side
Like the tears were never cried
Like the hands of time are holding you and me
And with all my heart I'm sure
We're closer than we ever were
I don't have to hear or see
I've got all the proof I need
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe
That when you die your life goes on
It doesn't end here when you're gone
Every soul is filled with light
It never ends and if I'm right
Our love can even reach across eternity
I believe, I believe
Forever you're a part of me
Forever in the heart of me
I will hold you even longer if I can
The people who don't see the most
Say that I believe in ghosts
And if that makes me crazy
Then I am
'Cause I believe, oh I believe
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, oh I believe
Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And I believe
'Cause I believe, oh I believe.

If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my Loved ones arms
And tell them they're from me
Tell them I love and miss them
And when they turn to smile
Place a kiss upon their cheeks
And hold them for awhile
Because remembering them is easy,
I do it every day
But there's an ache within my heart
Because I am missing them today...
FOR SATURDAY
I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS
As you hold me close in memory,
Even though we are apart,
My spirit will live on,
There within your heart .
I am with you always.
When you lean on trusted friends
And their caring hugs enfold you,
Within their loving arms,
I'll be there to hold you.
I am with you always.
And beyond the far horizon
When we'll finally be together,
Where love will be eternal
And life will last forever.
I am with you always.

☼ The Sea and the Beach ☼
(Tessa Wilkinson)
The sea seems to illustrate pain and sorrow so well
It comes in and goes out
For a while it is there, overwhelming, covering everything
Then slowly the tide turns and it withdraws
For a while we can see the beauty of the shells, the seaweed
We can rejoice in the patterns in the sand
We can feel the corrugated ripples under our feet
Alive to what is around, and beyond
But then the tide turns and again it is all washed away, all overwhelmed
We feel like the crashing of the waves on rocks
Raw and out of control
Full of anger and rage
Battered and bruised
Tossed about like flotsam floating wherever we are thrown
There are so many questions. Why now? Why her?
But no answers
Then the sea calms and gently the waves lap the rocks
We are soothed and the inner turmoil is calmed
In time we can learn to move up the beach as the tide comes in
Out of its reach
Not to be overwhelmed
The pain is still there, but in control
We can recognise the pain
Revisiting the sadness
Acknowledging how much the person is missed
We learn to turn away and look to the future
Knowing the person will always be part of us
Always loved and always remembered.
