Birthday Memories
♥ Are there birthdays up in heaven
does an angel blow his horn
announcing to all the angels
this is the day you were born ♥
♥ Can the stars be your balloons
and angel food your cake
presents wrapped in moonbeams
all the angels helped to make ♥
♥ So I’ll whisper a little prayer today
asking everyone up above
to sing you a happy birthday song
and give you all our love ♥
We all LOVE and MISS you Ged xxx
Forever Young - Sweet Dreams Ged
'Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord'

Precious Child by Karen Taylor Good
In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
'Cause you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon,
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
God knows I want to hold you,
See you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then
In my heart you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
Sweet dreams princess Erin mummy and daddy love and miss you so much, see you in the next life sweetheart xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
A Meassage from Gerard and Erin xxx
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow, I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain, I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush, I am in the graceful rush of beautiful birds in
circling flight, I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom, I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing, I am in each lovely thing
Do not stand at my grave bereft I am not there, I have not left....
Forever loved, forever young, for eternity yous will be missed, with lots of love and kisses from all your families xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Christmas Memories of a special Brother
There's a very special place beyond the skies above, somewhere very peaceful that is full of light and love
That special place is Heaven, where you're free to laugh and roam, it was your time to go there so the angels took you home
And though you're in our thoughts each day throughout the year, at special times like christmas we all wish you could be here
Now you're in a better place, your soul is laid to rest, safe with all the angels for they only take the best
Merry Christmas Ged, love and miss you so much all our love forever

Memories of our LITTLE ONE ERIN at Christmas
There are no explanations, and we wonder every day just why the good lord chose to take our little one away
For though you meant the world to us, your time on earth was brief and now it seems there is no end to all the pain and grief
But even though you came to us for just a little while the memories you left behind so often make us smile
This christmas, just as always, special thoughts will keep you near and though we cry to think of you there's love in every tear
Merry christmas baby girl mummy and daddy love and miss you very much
Lots and lots of love hugs and kisses from your mummy, daddy, big sister Hannah and baby brother Ethan xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
MESSAGE FOR MY FAMILY 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 am 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.
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.
When you think of my life on earth,
And all those loving years.
Because you are only human,
They are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry:
It does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers,
Unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you
All that God has planned.
If I were to tell you,
You wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain,
Though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now,
Than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads
Ahead of you and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it
By taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy
And I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world,
The world will give to you.
If you can help somebody
Who's in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night......
"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....
That my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way
I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody
Who is sad and feeling low;
Just lend a hand to pick him up,
As on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street
And you've got Me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps
Only half a step behind.
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.
MISS ME..... BUT LET ME GO
We've known lots of pleasure,
At times endured pain,,
We've lived in the sunshine,
And walked in the rain. ,
But now we're separated .
And for a time apart,,
But I am not alone- ,
You're forever in my heart.,
Death always seems so sudden, ,
And it is always sure,,
But what is often forgotten-,
It is not without a cure.,
There may be times you miss me, ,
I sort of hope you do,,
But smile when you think of me,,
For I'll be waiting here for you.
Now there's many things for you to do,,
And lots of ways to grow,,
So get busy, be happy, and live your life,,
Miss me, but let me go.
MY FRIEND I CARE
Don’t tell me that you understand.
Don’t tell me that you know.
Don’t tell me that I will survive,
How I will surely grow.
Don’t come at me with answers
That can only come from me.
Don’t tell me how my grief will pass,
That I will soon be free.
Accept me in my ups and downs.
I need someone to share.
Just hold my hand and let me cry
And say, “My friend, I care"

My Brother Ged
Did I ever tell you your my hero, your everything I would like to be, I can fly higher than an eagle cos you are the wind beneath my wings oh the wind beneath my wings, thankyou. I am missing you so much Ged everyday is hard but days like today are harder than others, time doesn't heal anything time just makes you realize that it's not a dream your in it's reality and reality is knowing that your never coming home which is really hard to say and think cos that dreadful pain and sorrow hits me like a thunderbolt. It's a devastating feeling to lose someone you love so much especially when there time on earth was only just beginning, you had so much to live for you were only a young man and those evil vile cowards took you away from us, I hate them so much I hope you are haunting them everyday of their rotten lives. The saying "the good die young" is very true, I am lucky to have had a brother as special as you were and will treasure every memory I have of us growing up, thank god we were close, I always knew I could rely on you if ever I needed you, you were so protective of your family, we all miss you terribly Ged, life isn't the same for any of us, if I had one wish in this world it would be to have you back with us where you belong. Take care big bro and guide us your family until we all meet again, look after our mam and dad their hearts are broken they love and miss you beyond words as you will know. Sweetdreams to you and my beautiful baby girl Erin, I know your looking after her for me give her a big kiss and an everlasting cuddle from me tell her that I love and miss her millions and think about her everyday, goodnight and godbless xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
A poem to you that comes straight from the heart to explain how we miss you now were apart.
Feelings I know can't be put into words they come from deep inside, but now you've gone away from us part of me has died.
We long to have you back again, so much you wouldn't know. I simply cannot bear the fact we had to let you go .
When you had to go that day our hearts just broke in two. We dread each day that's coming up, because we spend it without you.
Life seems like a battle now, that were losing every day.
It's been like that from the very moment you went away.
We long just to touch you now or sit and hold you near.
We would do anything we really would just to have you here.
There's an empty space in our hearts now you've gone away, It seems so hard without you here, to live from day to day. They've taken away from us the person we adore, every day that passes by we miss you more and more.
Every minute that passes by you're always on our mind.
A way to stop the hurt inside we simply cannot find.
An hour seems like a day right now and a week feels like a year.
We really would give anything just to have you near.

GED YOU WERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE "SIMPLY THE BEST"

POEM FROM HEAVEN
I see tears fall down your face
When your thoughts have turned to me.
Just know that I’m in heaven,
With my Lord, who’s set me free.
No pain or sadness do I feel,
For God is by my side.
The beauty here in Heaven
Is now where I reside.
I know it’s hard for you to cope
For you can’t feel my touch.
But every moment, I can see
And love you very much.
When you are at your lowest
And feel you can’t go on,
Look towards the heavens
The light will be turned on.
Talk to me, just like you did
On earth when I was there.
You see, I’m not so far away …
Only as far as a prayer.
And when it’s time for you to join
Me up in Heaven above.
It’s then that you will realize,
The Golden Place of love.
For here there is no sadness,
Just everlasting light.
Someday we will be joined again,
When it’s time to take your flight
It's Hard To Face Tomorrow
It's hard to face tomorrow,
When someone you love has gone,
Its harder still to realise,
that our lives still go on.
The heartbreak and the sorrow
Might not always show,
People say it lessens
How little do they know,
They say we have our memories,
But they don't understand,
You cannot kiss a memory's face,
Or hold a memory's hand.
I want to send a message,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to live without.
So rest in peace dear angel,
And thanks for all you've done,
I pray that god has given you,
The crown you've truly won
