2 years Gaz since you passed away where does the time go. Loved and remembered every day.
When someone you love becomes a memory
The memory becomes a treasure
Great is the price we pay for love
Loving wife Chris xxxx
My darling Garry - 2nd Christmas without you still miss you so much.
The moment that you died
my heart was torn in two
one side filled with heartache
the other died with you
I often lie awake at night when the world is fast asleep and take a a walk down memory lane with tears upon my cheeks
Remembering you is easy
I do it every day
But missing you is heartache that never goes away
Hi Gaz
Well its that time of year again, where we think of ones we have loved and lost. I miss you and your wonderful family who made me feel so welcome. Love you and will never forget you. Merry Christmas Garry, wherever you are. Ruby sends a kiss. Love Heather x
Happy birthday and happy anniversary for the 6th September my darling, it would have been 28 years and I wish you could have been here to share it with me. Miss and love you with all my heart
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal
Love leaves a memory no one cn steal xxxx

Dear Garry
One year on since you passed away. You have left a huge hole in our lives and we all still miss you terribly. We are blessed to have had you in our lives, and your memory and spirit lives on in each and every one of us, and it will do for all eternity. Ruby remembers her Grandad Garry, and we think of you, and miss you every day. We still laugh at the funny things you did, Paul always tells me about the time you were drunk on holiday and you were dancing with a pole!! We remember the time you sang happy birthday to Paul, even when you were so poorly (remember the quasimodo??) you never lost your sense of humour! You never faltered when you were ill, were so strong for Chris, Paul & Lee, and I am blessed to have known you. Sleep well Gaz, and as always, Ruby sends a kiss.
Love Heather x
A wonderful Dad x
Hi Dad, thank you so much for being my inspiration and being such a wonderful dad. I have so many wonderful memories and i am proud to be your son. You are missed so very much each and every day, your wonderful character and humour will be always be remembered.
Never forgotten.
Hi Dad, what words can i use to describe a wonderful Dad and Friend any son could wish for. Thank you Dad for bringing me up the right way and making me the person i am to day, you will always be in our hearts and my Beautiful little girls now and for ever.
In June last year after a long illness my husband Garry died of a brain tumour at the age of 59. The last 8 weeks of Garry’s life was spent in Wheatfield’s Hospice and then nursed at home by the specialist care team. The care that he received during this time was absolutely amazing. Throughout his illness Garry never complained about anything, and was always the first to ask if you were okay. If we were asked to describe how Garry dealt with the illness, it would be in these words. “If he was a boxer he would be a world champion, because he fought the illness from start to finish”.
Garry and I were married for 27 wonderful years and I miss him terribly. We were very lucky in that we have 2 wonderful sons Lee and Paul and their partners Julie and Heather and 4 beautiful granddaughters.
Garry loved watching any kind of sport and in his younger days followed Morley Rugby Union, and in the early Billy Bremmner years followed Leeds United. He was devastated when Leeds went down into division one.
Garry had such a love for flowers his favourite being the rhododendron. Before his illness he would spend many hours in the spring preparing for his bedding plants, nurturing them so that there was always a beautiful display in the summer. He took great delight in advising friends and family of potential gardens and also spent many hours pottering about in his own well loved gardens.
I always envisaged that we would grow old together but alas that was not to be. He was taken from me “gone too soon” my darling Garry was always there for me and so he has given me the courage to stand alone. Goodnight my love xx
