Happy Birthday Jo. We will all celebrate today, knowing you & loving you as you were, as you always will be x

On Katie's 12th birthday, thinking back to the day on the bus going home from Huyton, how you heard of the birth of your first grandchild. How you found a new purpose when everything seemed to have gone wrong, how you loved & fought for everyone you knew. How we'll never get over not having you with us in the days ahead x

2400 days since you left us. "I never dream but what I dreamt of thee."
"And I woke up this morning, you were on my mind." The old songs always the best x

Never your favourite time of the year. The number of times you cried & couldn't say why. Perhaps now I understand better, a little.
With renewed love, admiration & enduring respect. Always x

Thinking of you this Christmas time along with every day that passes. You always made it special & I will always love you. Much missed amongst the madness x

You would have been twenty thousand days old today. What a thought, when 15 seconds in your presence was enough, is enough, to sweeten the lives of everyone who ever knew you. Rave on silently, my only one x

Forgive me Jo for being so distracted lately, too many troubles but no excuses. I thought last night of some old lines that made me think of you as so often in certain remembrances. "Yet my love for her in its fullness she herself even did not know..." And still, & always, you are around in the days to come x
