Elizabeth(far left) was born 1938 at number 9 garret street, great ancoats, Manchester. My mother came from a large family of eight children,she had 3 brothers and four sisters. My mum had a huge heart and nobody ever had a bad word to say about her. She worked hard at butterworth's and also tried her hand as a quality machinist. She met my father John Loco in 1956 and they were married by father rayma at st ann's church. She settled into family life naturally and they had five children together (susan,sharon,anthony,wayne and tina).We all had a good childhood because she always had time for us all and never complained, she gave all the love anyone could ask for and never left any of us out. She treated all of us equally and put us all on the right path,thats why we owe her everything. I miss her soo much it hurts,I cannot describe the pain.There is not a day which goes by where i don't think about her and things she used to do to make us laugh and cry. what a wonderful mother "our mam" also known as "betty",the day she was taken friday 13th august 1999 our lives stood still. The pain is still raw but as she would say life goes on and she has left five children,twelve grandchildren and eleven greatgrandchildren soon to be twelve. We love you mam,gone but not forgotton. God bless everyone where you are xxxxxI know you are all happy.We will all meet again some day.Lots of love your entire family.

MUM LOVE AND MISS YOU
I STAND AND LOOK AT THE NIGHT SKY
I FIND THE BRIGHTEST STAR
I THINK OF YOU ALL THE TIME
AND WONDER WHERE YOU ARE
I STAND AND LOOK AT THE SKY AT NIGHT
AND I THINK TO MYSELF WHY?
AND IF THEIR IS A GOD ABOVE
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DIE?
WHY DID GOD CHOOSE THE ONE WE LOVE OUT OF ALL THE REST?
THE ONLY THING THAT COMES TO MIND
IS GOD ONLY TAKES THE BEST AND YOU ARE THE BEST MUM XXX

When a good person dies.
Night is coming on.
The last birds fly hurriedly to their nests.
Slowly but surely darkness takes possession of the world.
However, no sooner has darkness fallen,
than the lights begin to come on —
below us, around us, above us,
near us and far away from us —
a candle in a window, a lamp in a cellar,
a beacon in a lighthouse, a star in the sky.
And so we take heart and find our way again.
When a good person dies, darkness descends on us.
We feel lost, bereft, forlorn.
But gradually the lights begin to come on
as we recall the good deeds done by the deceased.
They spring up all over the place.
We are amazed at how much light is generated.
In this strange and beautiful light
we not only find our way,
but find the meaning of life itself.

♥ The Winding Lane ♥
Down the winding country lane
There's a soft and gentle breeze;
The perfume from the hedgerows
Comes drifting through the trees.
...................................................*ღ*
Birds sing sweet melodies
Bringing calmness to my mind;
My grief is slowly healing;
My sorrows left behind.
...................................................*ღ*
This lane is very special
I walk here every day,
Holding on to memories
Of times now far away.
...................................................*ღ*
For here I find the peace
God promised from the start;
It's found in His creation
To heal each broken heart.

✿ My Place for You ✿
There is a secret place
Within the heart of me
Where thoughts of you return
Like haunting melodies.
The voice I loved, now still,
Is whispering inside,
It stirs fond memories
Which in my heart reside.
Old feelings spring to life;
It is as if you're near,
Speaking words of comfort
"Remember I'm still here".
I know it is a dream
My heart so loves this song;
Souvenirs I store away
In the place where they belong.

For Just A Moment
Copyright © 1995 by Brenda Penepent
For just a moment
I’m sure I saw
a flicker of light ahead.
Perhaps it was your smile.
Though past now, remembered,
in my heart
like the small sound of
a butterfly passing by.
No night
is so dark
that can not be brightened
with memories of you.
Raindrops carry along
your blessings from heaven
to wash away my tears
and bring me hope anew.
to you mum
By Carol Dunn
It’s just one little candle
One tiny flickering light
A challenge to the darkness
A small beacon in the night.
It could be just a gentle touch
A reminder that you’re there
Or a warm, compassionate hug
That shows you understand and care.
Sometimes it only takes your smile
To encourage and uplift
And should that smile lead to laughter
You’ve shared a special gift.
There’s comfort in shared silence
Or in a softly spoken word
Or in taking time to listen
To feelings that must be heard.
Yes, it’s just one little candle
Softly glowing in the night
But it can overcome the darkness
If it will only share it’s light.
Just one candle at a time
Each one giving from its heart
Reaching out to those nearby
Asking them to do their part.
To make sure the light keeps growing
Reaching out to those in sorrow
Offering comfort, warmth and hope
Strength and courage for tomorrow.

ONENESS
The moment I die,
I will try to come back to you
as quickly as possible.
I promise it will not take long.
Isn't it true
I am already with you,
As I die each moment
I come back to you in every moment.
Just look,
Feel my presence.
If you want to cry,
Please cry.
And know that I will cry with you.
The tears you shed
Will heal us both.
Your tears are mine.
The earth I tread this morning
Transcends history.
Spring and Winter are both present in the moment.
The young leaf and the dead leaf are really one.
My feet touch deathlessness,
And my feet are yours. Walk with me now.
Let us enter the dimension of oneness
And see the cherry tree blossom in Winter.
Why should we talk about death
I don't need to die
To be back with you.
