A golden heart stopped beating, Hard-working hands at rest, It broke our hearts to see you go, But He only takes the best. We sat beside your bedside, Our hearts were crushed and sore, We did our duty til the end, Til we could do no more. In tears we watched you sinking, We watched you fade away, And though our hearts were breaking, We knew you could not stay. Our lips cannot speak how we loved you, Our hearts cannot tell what to say, But He only knows how we miss you, In our home that is lonely today. Sleep well until we meet again. Loving father of Jonathan and Dionne, James and Emma, much-loved Grandad of Morgan and Jack and Alex.

They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, Will change the way we feel. For no-one knows the heartache, That lies behind our smiles, No-one knows how many times, We have broken down and cried. We want to tell you something, So there won’t be any doubt, You’re so wonderful to think of, But so hard to be without. Little Mummy and Nana, we love you so much.
With all our love always, Lulu, Ash, Eadie and Cooper xxxx.

If roses grow in Heaven, Lord, please pick a bunch for us, Place them in Mum’s arms and tell her that they’re from us. Tell her we love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, Place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while. Because remembering her is easy, we do it every day, But there’s an ache within our hearts that will never go away. Give Dad a big kiss from us x.
Love always from your broken-hearted daughter Ali and son-in-law Mich xxx.
THORNE, Paul
02. 05. 1959 – 10. 12. 2011. No matter how we spend our days, no matter what we do, No morning dawns or evening falls when we don’t think of you.
Love from your broken-hearted Mum and Dad x.
