5 years gone - but never forgotten
Mum,
How time passes so quickly - but you are always in our thoughts - and although it has been five years already never a day goes by where I don't think about you and wish you were still here to enjoy all our family parties and gatherings. Xmas is always the hardest - you loved it so much - but we will be thinking of you again this year - the best mum ever. Love you so much mum and miss you every day.

With all my love,
Michelle

Only Wishing we had many more years together,

We miss you so much , Love from Ann ,Alan ,Pat and Ken .
You never said I'm leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
and only God knew why,
A million times we needed you
A million times we cried
if love alone could have saved you
you never would have died

Happy Mothers Day Mum
Mum
It's that dreaded time of year again for me - another Mothers' Day without you.
I will be walking on Sunday with Val and Sally to train for the charity Moonwalk in May - but will be thinking of you loads as I walk around Hyde Park.
I love you and miss you every single day mum - never a day goes by when I don't think of you and wish you were still here. Especially this year - my 50th year - you would have loved my 50th birthday party with all the family together.
Love you always - Happy Mothers Day

Missing you Always Mum
4 years have passed quickly by Mum, we think of you always-you were a special lady to all who met you and an extra special Mum. I miss your support, your love but most of all I miss our friendship.
Love and Miss you everyday,

4 Years Have Passed
God saw you getting tired,
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you,
And said, "Come unto Me"
With tearful eyes we watched you,
As you slowly passed away.
And though we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
Many times we've needed you,
So many times we've cried.
If only love could have saved you,
You never would have died
All our Love Ann, Alan , Pat and Ken.

Happy Birthday Mum xxx
Happy 72nd birthday Mum. Another year goes by - quite a difficult one for our family - and it makes me realise just how much we all miss you.
I wish we had had many more years together to celebrate your special day but also to have had more time together.
Much love as always and will be thinking of you more than ever on the 24th June.
Happy Birthday and love you always,

Belated Happy Mothers Day 2012
Mum
I'm sorry this message is a bit late but I know you'll understand that things have been difficult recently for us all and I've been trying to leave you a message since Sat 17th but the website has been down.
Another Mothers Day comes and goes without you. I went for a walk on the River Thames Path on Sunday and went near to the house I'm trying to buy (and past several pubs !!) - you would've loved it there mum.......
They say "time is a great healer" but I would have to disagree with that. As the years pass by I miss you more than ever - especially your advice and support.
I love you always, think of you often and wish we could have had many more Mothers Days together.
Belated Happy Mothers Day mum,
Love you,
Michelle

Thinking of you mum
Three years have passed by and not a single day goes by when I don't think of you. You have left such a huge gap in my life but you will always be a part of it - never more so than at Xmas time. I just wish we could have had many more of them together.

Love you always mum, and miss you every day.
