When tomorrow starts without me and I am not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes are filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say.

When my dad died at the great age of 96 it was a huge shock as just a few days before he had been laughing and joking at my 60th birthday. For as long as I can remember he and my mum, Ethel, had raised funds for the Children's Society.

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 sunlight 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 circled flight.
Thank you for your donation in memory of a dear colleague and friend who will be greatly missed.
Bruce was a real family man and enjoyed nothing more than spending quality time with his wife, children and grandchildren, talking about football and telling jokes and stories. Bruce also loved his garden and especially his roses
Always cheerful and always happy and a long term supporter of The Childrens Society.
We, as a family, would like to thank everyone who donated so generously to the Church of England Children's Society in memory of our dear aunt, Dorothy Willetts.
In age she kept a secret truth,
The bubbling humour of her youth,
In conversation she'd evoke
The very best from other folk.

My beautiful son Sean was stillborn on the 21st of October 1993, he weighed 6lb and 7oz. I was 39 weeks pregnant and thought everything would be o.k. I didn't realise a baby could die so late in pregnancy. Daft i know, but all the same that is what i thought.
Loved Husband, father and Grandfather.
Lets keep trying to raise some money.
Betty - grandma of the world. Always more concerned about others than herself, she seemed to know how people were really thinking, understand what mattered and had ideas to help. With the highest standards of hospitality, personal caring - and cooking and baking - everyone loved to visit. We left feeling more loved and more confident.

In loving memory of Dan, beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, friend and colleague.
After a happy Norfolk childhood Dan studied politics at Liverpool University, where he fell in love with the city.
He had a strong sense of social justice and wanted the world to be a fairer place.

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 circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
In loving memory of Sidney Weir...
