A treasured Husband, dad, granddad, great-granddad, Brother and friend of all, who is sadly missed by all who new him and will never be forgotten. We love you forever Dad.
My Dad Archie (as he was know by all who knew him) was always out and about where he lived in walker and liked to have a bet on the horses. He didn’t drink much but when he had a few he was a good laugh and always having fun. He would always be there to help us out if we needed anything and never judged us. He always gave us advice and guided us when we needed it. He loved all his family and loved to take sweets and treats to his grandchildren and great grandchildren and would go from one house to another just to give them out to them, he always loved to see their smiling faces. Christmas Day he would try his hardest to visit all his children if possible and make sure plenty of photos were taken of all his family, if he didn’t manage to get to all the houses on Christmas day he would go on boxing day and he made sure he seen all his family over the Christmas period. He loved to have his family around him and if I missed a couple of days from going to visit him he would be on the phone or tell my mum to phone to see why I hadn’t been to see them. For months my dad said he wasn’t feeling too well but still seemed to get around so nobody really thought much about it. Around this time some of his grandchildren and son Archie (and sometimes me, son Brian and his other daughter Margy) started to go on a night time once or twice a week to play cards and dominos as my dad loved to play. Then in December 2002 just before Christmas Archie was taken ill and rushed to hospital, he was diagnosed with cancer within a few days of being admitted to the hospital. Further tests revealed that his cancer had spread throughout his body and there was nothing the doctors could do. In January 2003 he came home and fought his cancer as long and hard as he could, he also made sure that the cards and dominos didn’t stop. Then in August 2003 he found he could no longer fight his cancer. He sadly passed away in his sleep at home with his family at his bedside on August 26th 2003.
We sat beside your bedside, our hearts were crushed and sore, we did what we could to make you well till we could do no more. With tears we watched you sinking, we saw you fade away and though our hearts were breaking we knew you could not stay.
God bless you Dad and may you now be free from all the pain.
Always remembered never forgotten.

THIS POEM WAS WHAT I WROTE TO MY DAD AND WAS READ OUT AT HIS SERVICE
DAD
They say that time will heal us
Today it’s hard to believe
Dad as you lay there sleeping
This is how we feel
We cry the tears of sorrow
Of sadness and despair
The thought that you are gone now
And no longer there
We remember all the good times
The ones we all have shared
The memory of your smiling face
The happiness you gave
The joy you gave to all of us
Whenever you were there
It’s hard to say good-bye to you
Till we meet again
But I know that one-day
We definitely will
So may you now rest peacefully
With no more pain
Lay your head to rest
And DAD you were the best
May god now bless you
And keep you safe and well
Till we see you again
Forever in our hearts
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
DAUGHTER IN LAW DENISE ALSO WROTE A VERSE FOR MY DAD WHICH WAS ALSO READ AT THE SERVICE
FATHER
ALL THROUGH ARE LIVES YOU GUIDED US
KEPT US STRAIGHT AND TRUE
I KNOW SOMETIMES WE FAULTERED
BUT WE COULD ALWAYS COUNT ON YOU
SOMETIMES WE’D HAVE A PROBLEM
SOMETIMES DISAGREE
BUT ALWAYS WHEN WE NEEDED YOU
THERE YOU WOULD BE
BECAUSE DEAR FATHER YOU LOVED US
WITH A HEART SO WARM AND TRUE
NEVER IN ALL LIFE TIME COULD
ANOTHER REPLACE YOU
TO-DAY WE SAY FAREWELL
TO OUR FATHER HELD SO DEAR
WE’VE SHARED SO MUCH HAPPINESS
SOME PLEASURE AND SOME PAIN
BUT ALL THIS WE PROMISE YOU
AND NEVER WILL WE REFRAIN
IN OUR HEARTS AND MEMORIES
FOREVER WILL YOU REMAIN
TILL TIME WILL COME EVENTUALLY
WE’LL BE HELD IN YOUR ARMS
ONCE AGAIN.
LOVE ALWAYS
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

~♥ With Love ♥~
Oh most beautiful star
In the sky tonight
You are most bright
I watch and wait
With hand raised up
Open and waiting
Slowly, oh so slowly
You move through
The night sky
You come closer
As I watch and wait
Hand outstretched
Then ever so softly
You come to rest
In the palm of my hand
You shine like a diamond
Your brilliance
Holds me in awe
I could almost wish
To hold you tight
To keep you safe just for me
In time, your light
Would fade from sight
You would die
To me and to all
So I let you stay
As long as you wish
With palm open
So you may leave at will
You will travel back
To the night sky
To shine brightly
For all to see
I will cherish
The moments you gifted me
With your light
Specially for me
For a little while…
Star So Bright
by Ann Marquette

Will i always feel like this
That life is so unfair
Im so sad and so lonely
When i need you,youre not there

Nothing can ever change this
For time is moving on
Now all i have are memories
Happy days now long gone
*~~*~~*~~*~~*
All the love you gave me

For sure i know that one day
We will make a brand new start
*~~*~~*~~*~~*
You know just how im feeling
So ill say nothing more
Just be there to guide me
Walking through Gods golden door

I cannot see you with my eyes
Or hear you with my ears,
But thoughts of you are with me still
And often dry my tears.
You whistle in the rustling leaves,
That linger in the fall
And in the gentle evening breeze,
I'm sure I hear your call.
A part of you remains with me
That none can take away,
It gives me strength to carry on,
At dawning of new day.
I think of happy times we shared
And then I softly sigh
But then I know - we'll meet again
And never say goodbye.

light a candle,
see it glow,
watch it dance,
when you feel low,
think of me,
think of light,
I'll always be here,
day or night,
a candle flickers,
out of sight,
but in your heart,
I still burn bright,
think not of sadness,
that I'm not near,
think of gladness,
and joyous cheer,
I have not left,
I am not gone,
I'm here to stay
my loved one,
so when you light a candle
and you see it glow
and you watch it dance
in your heart you'll know
that I would never leave you
even when you feel so blue
I'm sitting up here with the Lord
and now watching over you
Love always xx kathleen xx

.....Another year has come and gone,
.......Yet it doesn’t seem that long!
.......Time flies by but I’m still here,
......Wishing for just one more year.
...........But I never get my wish.
........Instead another year to miss.
.....Everything seems all messed up,
...As I send you cheers and lift my cup.
.......And usher in another year new;
......Another year for me without you.
