The music playing on my Pas memorial is his own.
My grandfather meant and still means the world to me. When I lost my grandfather on the 14th November 2005, was the day my life changed forever. I was extremely close to my Pa and loved him with all my heart, and will forever love him. He will never be forgotten. I wrote this little poem for him which I regretted not reading to him before his passing:
I remember the days, you used to come round,
We'd sit at the table, not on the ground.
The family would talk, until it got late,
You would then say "Off to bed now mate"
A kiss and a hug, and a wishful goodnight,
Mum would come down and turn off the light.
I stayed out with you, whenever I could,
I guess in a way, I felt like I should.
You seemed so alone, living out on your own,
When all you had to do, was pick up the phone.
We'd climb into our bed, in our rooms late at night,
You would yell out, "Can I turn out the light".
After breakfast you would say, "Are you ready to go",
You'd warm up the old girl, and we'd go rather slow.
You loved your old ford, you drove it everywhere,
Guess that is why, you took so much care.
To come and see you, much later in life,
If felt like to me, a stab from a knife.
It hurt to see you, looking out into space,
To see the expression, of pain on your face.
All you could do, was sit there and stare,
As you sat all alone, in your favorite blue chair.
Your thoughts they all went, back to the past,
The dreaded dementure moving so fast.
The back pain you suffered, it never seemed right,
Without any complaints, you put up a fight.
It broke my heart, to see you cry,
When I stood up, to say goodbye.
Pa, I LOVE YOU, and always will,
I wish that God, had not made you so ill. xxxxxxxx
Pa, I love and miss you more than anything in this world. You were my inspiration, my rock. You will live on in my heart for ever. They day god took you, my heart was torn in two. I love you Pa xxxx RIP
miss and love u 6 yrs on xxxx
Six years ago today, my heart was torn in two,
When I sat at yr side, and said goodbye to you.
Pa, I miss you so much, the pain I cannot hide,
Words cant describe, what I feel deep down inside.
There isnt a day that goes by, that I dont think of you,
... Your're always in my thoughts, with everything I do.
They say time heals everything, that I dont think is true,
You will forever be in my heart, I will always love you. ♥ ♥ ♥ RIP xxx
Hi Pa, im missing you so much. It doesnt matter how much time goes by, the heartache doesnt go away. Im coming out to see you 2morrow. I so need to talk to you and need your guidance xxx Dad played me some of your music today and I got so emotional, i just miss you so much. No one really understands just how much and how many tears i still cry for you xxxxxx

Morning my dear Pa. Im still finding your loss so hard. Its just not the same without you here in our lives. Your great grandauther is growing up so fast. I know your watching over ua all from somewhere up above xxx Loving and missing you terribly :( xox
Merry Christmas Pa xx
Christmas without you here with me,
can never possibly be the same.
But I carry an Angel within my heart;
one so precious, who has your name.
An Angel forever watching over me,
at Christmas time, and over the year.
Although you can't be here anymore,
inside my heart, you are so very near.
There is no special present for you,
wrapped up under my Christmas tree.
But I have a greater gift to give to you;
all the love you can still feel from me.
No, Christmas time without you here,
could not ever possibly be the same.
But, I have had the precious gift of you,
and the memories and love, will remain.
Love Your grandaughter Janet xoxox
On Angel Wings
On angel wings you do fly
On angel wings into the sky
On angel wings i do cry
Because those angel wings took you away
On angel wings the heralds sing
Is there no such lovely thing?
On angel wings you fly away.
I will see these angel wings again someday
When i am old and my time has come
On angel wings I will fly
Until I'm holding you once again
Smiling on angel wings.

To my dearest Pa
Its been 4 years today Pa, since god took you away,
Forever in my heart, is where memories of you stay.
No one knows the pain I feel, so deep inside of me,
The heartache, and the sadness, I think will always be
Pa my tears they flow so often, no one sees me cry,
I wish that you were here with us, and never had to die.
Although I seem to hide it, my sorrow is so deep,
Missing you in silence, Quietly I weep.
You are my inspiration, to carry on with life,
The way that you did, after losing your beloved wife.
Your great grandaughter Sienna, you would have been so proud,
Shes just so cute and cheeky, and so very loud.
I know you would of loved her, the way that you loved me,
My love for you is forever Pa, that will always be.
Ill come and visit you today, and leave this at your grave,
Ill try not to get to upset, somehow I'll be brave.
I know your watching over me from someone up above,
Keeping me safe and guiding me, and sending me your love.
Its time for me to go now Pa, but just remember this,
I'll love you ,forever more, im sending you a kiss.
Pa today Im feeling really down. If only you were here. I miss you more than I cld evey explain. My love for you will never die. You are alway and will always be forever in my heart xoxoxoxo
