I would like to thank everyone for all the candles, tributes & pictures that are left on Christopher's website they are all very much appreciated.


Tributes For Week Starting 23rd November



FOR MONDAY



The best and most beautiful
Things in the world cannot
Be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart.


FOR TUESDAY


Gone yet not forgotten,
Although we are apart,
Your spirit lives within me,
Forever in my heart.


FOR WEDNESDAY


A gift for such a little while,
Your loss just seems so wrong,
You should not have left before us,
It’s with loved ones you belong.


FOR THURSDAY


Perhaps they are not
Stars in the sky,
But rather openings
Where our loved ones shine down
To let us know they are happy.



FOR FRIDAY


The Watcher

They always leaned to watch for us
Anxious if we were late,
In winter by the window,
In summer by the gate.

And though we mocked them tenderly
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more safe,
Because they waited there.

Their thoughts were all so full of us,
They never could forget,
And so I think that where they are
They must be watching yet.

Waiting ‘til we come home to them
Anxious if we are late
Watching from Heaven’s window
Leaning from Heaven’s gate.



FOR SATURDAY


As We Look Back


As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?

For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems

And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgement,
Courage and integrity?

We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best?
And for the simple things

Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us.



FOR SUNDAY


To Those Whom I Love and Those Who Love Me


When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that I have had so many years

I gave you my love, you can only guess
How much you gave me in happiness
I think you for the love each have shown
But now it is time I traveled on alone

So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for a while that we must part
So bless the memoriss in your heart

I will not be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you can not see or touch me, I will be near
And if you listen with your heart, you will hear
All of my love around you soft and clear

Then, when you must come this way alone
I will greet you with a smile and a
"Welcome Home"

Tributes For Week Starting 16th November


FOR MONDAY

Sadly missed along life's way,
Quietly remembered every day,
No longer in our life to share,
But in our hearts you’re always there.

FOR TUESDAY

I sit and wonder every day,
Why the Lord chose to call you away,
I think He saw you needed rest,
He only takes the very best.

FOR WEDNESDAY

Everyday in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are always near,
Still missed, loved, always dear.

FOR THURSDAY

Resting where no shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep he awaits us all;
God will link the broken chain,
When one by one we meet again.


FOR FRIDAY

Surrounded by friends
Yet all alone
The one I loved
God has called home

The hugs of friends
Helps ease the pain
And I know my loss
Is my loved one's gain

But tears now flow
Across my face
As I long for just
One more embrace

Then comfort comes
And I see Christ's face
He hugs my loved one
And I feel God's grace.


FOR SATURDAY

Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears...

It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.

My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know..
.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.


FOR SUNDAY

When I come to the end of the day
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love we once shared,
Miss me but let me go.

For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the maker's plan,
A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds -
Miss me, but let me go.

Tributes For Week Starting 9th November


FOR MONDAY

Your presence I miss,
Your memory I treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.

FOR TUESDAY

Loving you is easy,
We do it every day,
Missing you is a heartache,
That never goes away.

FOR WEDNESDAY

No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.

FOR THURSDAY

Memory is a lovely lane,
Where hearts are ever true,
A lane I so often travel down,
Because it leads to you.


FOR FRIDAY

Wings Of The Angels

A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a mother's name.

Left behind, the children's tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God a mother's sent.

On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn.

FOR SATURDAY

If I Had One Last Day

If I had one last day
To tell you what's inside
I'd tell you that I'm sorry
For all the times I've lied

I'd tell you that I need you
To hold my hand today
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd ask you, please, to stay

You'd look at me and smile
The way you always would
And say "I'd love to stay,
If only I really could"

Then you'd laugh the way you did
Whenever I was blue
You'd wipe my tears and whisper softly,
"Don't cry, I love you too"

If I had one last day
I'd love you from the start
I'd stop hiding how I feel
I'd say what's in my heart

If I had one last day,
I'd say my last good-bye
And that even though you are far away,
In my heart, you'll never die.

FOR SUNDAY

Cry Not My Friend

When you wake up tomorrow
And I am no where to be found
When you scream out my name
To the emptiness around

When every beat inside your heart
Is skipping and unsure
Cry not my friend for I am here,
Inside your love so pure

When the waves that used to touch our feet
Have gone back out to sea
When everything you once held dear
Was lost when you lost me

When the sun that once lit up your face
Is setting far away
Cry not my Friend for time shall pass,
But my love for you will stay

When age arrives and children play
And pain creeps up on you
When loved ones show you happiness
That your life never knew

When all of your expectations are met,
No matter what the pain
Cry not my friend, for I am waiting
To hold you once again

When beauty in your eyes turn grey
And all of the rainbow, white
When strong undying hearts
No longer feel an urge to fight

When winter snows become more pain
Than beauty in your heart
Cry not my friend, for I am here
And we will never ever part

Tributes For Week Starting 2nd November

FOR MONDAY

There's a special kind of feeling,
That's meant for you alone,
A special place within our hearts,
That only you can own.

FOR TUESDAY

If only prayers were answered,
& wishes did come true,
Our only wishes with all our hearts,
Would be to still have you

FOR WEDNESDAY

We send this special message
To the heavens up above
Please take care of our precious angels
And give them all our love


FOR THURSDAY

I lit a candle for you today
May it's light reflect my love your way
Now I must go until next time
I will forever keep you, gently on my mind


FOR FRIDAY

Angels

When you were born, an angel smiled,
As you became a child, an angel sat on your shoulder
When you became an adult, an angel held your hand
As you grew old, an angel walked down the road with you,
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.

Thibutes For Week Starting 26th October


♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR MONDAY

In our hearts your memory lingers,
Sweetly tender, fond and true,
There is not a day, dear Loved One
That we do not think of you.

FOR TUESDAY

Nothing can ever take away
The love a heart holds dear.
Fond memories linger every day
Remembrance keeps them near.

FOR WEDNESDAY

Looking back with memories,
Upon the path you trod,
We bless the hours we had with you,
And leave the rest with God.

FOR THURSDAY

Those we love we never lose,
For always they will be,
Loved, remembered, treasured,
Always in our memory.

FOR FRIDAY

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.

FOR MONDAY

Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.

FOR TUESDAY

Your life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure...
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure...

We miss you now, our hearts are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face,
No one can fill your vacant place.

FOR THURSDAY

Looking back with memories,
Upon the path you trod,
We bless the hours we had with you,
And leave the rest with God.


FOR FRIDAY

ROSES GROW IN HEAVEN

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.


FOR SUNDAY

A BUTTERFLY CAME FLOATING BY,
I THOUGHT I KNEW ITS FACE.
IT LANDED ON MY SHOULDER,
AND SPREAD ITS WINGS OF LACE.

I LOOKED AND SAW IT SMILING,
AS IT WINKED AND FLEW AWAY.
I'M SURE I HEARD IT WHISPER,
WE'LL MEET AGAIN ONE DAY.

My wings are spread, my pain is gone-Do grieve for me-but not for long.
For wondrous peace surrounds my flight-I’m gliding towards that ray of light.
So grieve for me but not for long-Remember blessings not the wrong.
My life was full and so complete-Although the end was bittersweet.
You brightened up my everyday…By things you’d do, by things you’d say.
I’ll miss my life with you on Earth, but know you gave my life it’s worth.
I’m gliding towards a perfect place-No pain or sorrow, only grace.
My wings are spread, I’m soaring strong…Do grieve for me, but not for long.
miss you. love theresa xxx
