A very sorely missed man, dad & grandad. He was a gentleman through and through, always put his family first. A working man all of his days, he was diagnosed with diabetes in 1981 still he worked hard to provide for his family sometimes working over 16 hrs per day as either a coach driver or an HGV mechanic / HGV recovery. He and his family moved to Scotland in 1991 after the death of his own father.

Again he worked crazy hours to give his family a good life until he was thought to have had a stroke in 1997, but they instead found out he had Multiple Sclerosis, although only diagnosed in '97 the doctors estimated he had had it since the early 80's.

Almost immediately he was wheelchair bound and had lost the use of his limbs due to a combination of the stroke and his M.S, still he tried to bring a smile to everyone's face with his jokes and some of his work stories and memories of trips to Littlehampton and Bushy park.

He eventually decided to stay in the nursing home he had frequented for respite care. The better part of the family, along with dad, decided a move to Motherwell was in order, change of scenery and that!

Unfortunately it was in this home where dad died on a friday morning, only the night before had Kelly visited, later commenting on how well he looked. Mark was away through his long distance HGV driving job and had woke up at 0500 as did Kelly and Andrew, another son, so we think this is when dad took a turn for the worst. I had the sad task of telling Mark over the phone, but not getting the words out for the tears Mark knew what had happened.


Again a sorely missed man who can and never will be replaced......

The song you here playing is The green fields of France by Davey Arthur and the Fureys....Dad loved most Irish music but The Fureys and Foster & Allen were among his favourites.

If tears could build a stairway,
and memories a lane,
I’d walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again

♥ღ♥ My Angel ♥ღ♥

♥ღ♥ You'll always be my angel
Of happiness and love
You'll always be my angel
Looking at me from above.

I miss you a lot
And I wish you could have stayed,
But I thought
It's better for you, so I prayed.

And I keep praying
And thinking
But also crying
And leaking.

It was tearing me apart
Before I actualy knew
Through those golden gates
Those angel guards were you.

You were everything
That you could possibly be
And now that I think of it
Why was I only thinking about me?

You'll always be my angel
Of happiness and love
You'll always be my angel
Looking at me from above.

I see
You watching over me
And hear
You speaking to me
I won't
Give up and not care
I will
Move on and be fair.

As I think about you
I might be sad for a while
But as I think again My Angel
I see your happy smile
Smiling down at me
Through the clouds
And through the sky
I've left the ground
And just died.
I'm coming to be with you
And God, too.

You'll always be my angel
Of happiness and love
You'll always be my angel
Looking at me from above ♥ღ♥
LOVE ALWAYS FROM ROBERT CHRISTINE AND FAMILY XXXX

how i miss you

My broken heart..
Will never mend
So lots of kisses..
I shall send
We think of you..
In a better place
With beautiful wings..
And a smile on your face

Every day is a struggle you see
Trying to cope..
So please help me

How do I cope?
I do not know
My heart is broken..
So that goes to show

I can't except you are gone
I need you here..
Please keep me strong
Stay by my side..
Show me the way
Help me to cope every day

I love and miss you so much..
And I always will
Since you have been gone..
Time has stood still

I think of you in heaven..
With Gods Angels up above
Please my precious Angel..
Watch over me with love
love from Robert and christine xxxxx

I DONT WANT DIAMONDS
I DONT WANT GOLD
ALL I WANT IS YOU TO HAVE AND TO HOLD
I WANT YOU SO BAD TO BE BY MY SIDE
SO I DONT HAVE TO KEEP MY FEELING LOCKED INSIDE
INSIDE MY HEART WHERE NO-ONE CAN SEE
I SO WANT YOU TO BE PART OF ME
TO BE BY MY SIDE WHEN THINGS GO WRONG
KEEP ME SAFE AND KEEP ME STRONG
I WANT TO BE HERE FOR YOU TOO
TO SHARE PRECOIUS MOMENTS THAT MUCH IS TRUE
TO GIVE YOU LOVE ALL YOUR HEART CAN HOLD
THAT TO ME IS BETTER THAN DIAMONDS OR GOLD

♥*•.♥ Simply The Best ♥*•.♥

The sun still shines
The rain still falls
Not long ago i had it all
These words i write
Straight from my heart
When you left it broke my heart
Now i search within my soul
To find the pieces
To make my heart whole
Ill never find the last piece
You took it when you left
For i truly do believe
That you needed the rest
So now youve got your Angel wings
You fly high with the rest
Because i know deep in my heart
To me ♥*•.♥ SIMPLY THE BEST ♥*•.♥

♥*•.♥ LOVE ALWAYS FROM ROBERT AND CHRISTINE XXXX ♥*•.♥

.*.*.*.*.*. NIGHT NIGHT ANGEL .*.*.*.*.*.


The angel came down to earth
And gave me some angel wings

*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*

I look down on my family
And watch them day by day
I know my family need me
But I am so far away

*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*

I know you are asking
Where did you go wrong
And why does it hurt so much
And how do you go on

*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*

But please understand my family
You are still very dear to my heart
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *.*.*.*
I will always love and miss you
And will welcome you when you come home

*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*

I send you my love always
Your angel xXx

Hello my beautiful angel.
I've been feeling so low today,
So I came on GTS for I have so much I want to say.
I feel so sad and I don't know what I can do,
I miss you so much as I sit by my computer as I cry for you.

So I switched on my computer,
To send you all my love,
And light a candle or two..
For you my angel up above.

I log into my garden,
Type my password in with love,
I know that one day I will be with you in heaven,
My angel up above.
