When you were born, an angel smiled,
As you became a child, an angel sat on your shoulder.
When you became an adult, an angel held your hand
And when you died, another angel got his wings.

My dad Malcolm passed away on the 17th September 2007 very suddenly from a heart attack. He was 48
years old and has three daughters myself (Catherine), Rose-Marie and Jacqueline. He has one sister
May and four brothers Johnny, Frankie, Alec and Paul. He has three grandchildren, Noah (aged 3),
Chloe (aged 2) and baby lewis (aged 4 months). My dad lost his eyesight due to his diabetes and
never got the chance to see them. My dad was the kind of man who walked down the street and knew
everyone, he was a friendly and caring person, helping anyone out any way that he could. Losing his
eyesight was the worst thing that could have happened to my dad, he was very independent and seemed
to give up when this happened. My dads health began to go down hill from here. On the morning of
the 17th, i experienced something i never could have imagined, i found my dad, this has been very
hard to come to terms with and im taking each day as it comes, but it is very difficult. My dad
always thought he was a comedian, cracking jokes all the time!!!!. Even to this day i still
remember his joke about painting the kitchen and it always makes me laugh, i guess thats what i have
to remember to do, remember the good times and memories, what my dad would want his three daughters
to do. My dad was a huge UB40 fan and used to think he was a reggae star, boogying around the
living room dancing to their music, not realising me, Rose-marie and Jacqueline were watching him.
We had planned to take our dad to the concert on December 13th for his birthday on the 15th
december, but sadly this wasn't meant to be. So as a tribute me and my two sisters went together.
My dad meant the world to me, i moved in with him when he turned blind to help take care of him. My
dad always called me the baby because i am the youngest, he always had a soft spot for me. Since my
dad passed away i feel apart of me is missing. Four months before my dad passed away my brother
passed away from cancer at the age of 26(Kevin Gallagher-webpage also been set up for him on gone
too soon). Not a day goes by that i dont think about my dad or brother. I visit their graveside
everyday, 2 to 3 times a day. I regularly change their flowers and make sure their graves are
looking nice and tidy for them. Visiting my dad and brother at the graveyard is my special time
with them, where i feel i can talk to them and be around them when im feeling low. Although, in my
heart is where they will always be and stay.
Love you always DAD
Love Catherine ♥♥♥♥
Gone are the days we used to share,
But in our hearts you are always there;
The gates of memory will never close,
We miss you more than anyone knows;
With tender love and deep regret,
We who love you will never forget.
Have A Good Weekend Everyone
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you.
And each time that you think of me
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the hand.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
I looked towards the clouds today
And for a moment saw your face.
I wondered just where you have gone
With hope it's a better place.
Did you show yourself to me today,
To tell me you're all right?
Or was it just a daydream
Playing tricks upon my sight?
We will always feel the void inside
Because you are not here.
But each new thought you send our way
Lets us know you're near.
So until our journey nears its end
And we hear the angels sing,
We'll face each new day as it comes
And live off the love you bring.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
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 are all 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.
But when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

The Gift Of Knowing You
~x~
There are gifts of many treasures
For both the young and old,
From the tiniest little trinkets
To great boxes filled with gold.
~x~
But, put them all together
And they could not stand in lieu,
Of the greatest gift of all
The gift of knowing you.
~x~
When your times are filled with troubles
Sadness, grief, or even doubt,
When all those things you planned on
Just aren't turning out.
~x~
Just turn and look behind you
From the place at which you stand,
And look for me through the shadows
And reach out for my hand.
~x~
I will lift from you your burden
And cry for you your tears,
Bear the pain of all your sorrows
Though it may be for a thousand years.
~x~
For in the end I would be happy
To have helped you start anew,
It's a small price to pay
For the gift of knowing you.
~x~
As you release this butterfly in honour of me,
Know that I'm with you and will always be.
Hold a hand, say a prayer, close your eyes and see me There.
Although you may feel a bit torn apart,
Please know that I'll be forever in your heart.
Now fly away butterfly as high as you can go,
I'm right there with you more than you know.
xxxxx

love from Carol xx
My dear family
Dry your tears today
You know I love you so
It hurts me much to see you cry
Cos my family don't you know
I'll never leave you all alone
I've never left your hearts
God took me by the hand that day
He said we would never part
He kept his promise to me
I visit you all the time
You are the sweetest family
An angel here could have
If I could write a letter
I'm sure you know I would
To let you know I'm safe from harm
And that heaven is a real good place
I'm here with many angels
Some that you may know
Those angels send all their love
To all of you below
I know one day we'll meet again
On the day that you come home
I've saved a place for you my loved ones
It's near gods precious throne
I'll wrap my arms around you and
Lead you up gods stairs
Till then my lovely family
Carry on and dry those tears
Please do me one big favour
Look after one another
Please take the time to smile and think
That you still have each other.
LOVE ALWAYS DAD (MALCOLM) XXXXX
A SMILE FOR YOU
Smiling is infectious, you catch it like the flu
When some one smiled at me today I started Smiling too
I passed around the corner and someone saw my Grin
When he smiled I realized I'd passed it on to him
I thought about that smile and realised its Worth.
A single smile just like mine could travel around The earth.
So if you feel a smile begining don’t leave it Undetected
Lets start an epidemic quick and get the world Infected
EVERY ONE NEEDS A SMILE
LOVE ALWAYS SANDRA & MICHAELA & OUR ANGELS PETER, DAVID & VIOLET XXXXX

A SPECIAL FRIEND X
I'm sending you this Angel
with hopes for dreams all night.
She's bringing her Special Blanket
to wrap you in all tight.
It's made with Love and Stardust
and Magic through and through
to help you sleep very soundly
and awaken just like new.
So close your eyes and see her
floating near your side,
she's there to tuck you in, dear Friend,
for a dreamy sleep filled ride.
You are so precious and so loved
and God watches over you every day.
Just remember your Good Night Angel
is only a thought away.
Blessings to you...
☾☆ ☾☆ ☾☆☾☆ ☾☾☆
My family don't know I'm watching them
But I'm watching them just the same.
And I hear each tear falling on their face
At the mention of my name.
They says it sounds like music to their ears
And can be heard over a crowd.
I hear each tear falling on their face,
When my name is said aloud.
I watch them stumble through each day
As they wish the day would end.
And I hear each tear falling on their face
As they talk of me with their friends.
But there are few who truly understand.
This I've heard them proclaim.
And I hear each tear falling on their face.
Will my family ever be the same?
I know that their smile's could light up the sky,
But I don't see them smileing today.
But I hear each tear falling on their face,
and their blue skies have turned to grey.
I send my family hugs full of love
with the rays of the morning sun.
Then I won't hear tear's falling on their face's
For I shall erase them one by one.
Yes my family don't know I'm watching them,
But I'm watching them just the same.
And when I hear a tear fall on their face
I softly whisper their name
Till we meet again
Don't let the tears fall down your face
I am watching and waiting
Love DAD (MALCOLM) xxxxx
