My Parents



In Loving Memory


my dear parents
	Martha &Bill


	*1928-1994*

.My mother passed away on the 12th October 1994, my biggest regret is not getting to say goodbye to her as she was my best friend and mother to me .I saw her one hour before she died but we never knew it was going to happen ,we were told it was just indigestion by the doctor unknown to him she had suffered a heart attack and this was her slipping away .That was the hardest day of my life and I will never forget it My mother is in my thoughts every day of my life i miss her so much she was my best friend , easy to talk with about anything .I miss that !I cannot believe how long ago it happened as it feels just like yesterday in my heart .But life has to go on and it gets easier every day , at least now i can talk about her and watch the videos with her in them without falling to pieces.My mother was just 66. I feel robbed.




	*1927-1998*

My father passed away on the 23rd of May 1998, he also died from a heart attack but at least I got to say my goodbyes to him in hospital. My twin and I sat with him through the night then were joined later by my older sister when I knew time was passing fast for him .We all said our goodbye's privately to him and I think he knew his time had come but we never told him .Hardest thing to have to do is sit and watch a loved one pass away, and there is nothing you can do or say to make the pain go away in your heart. But i must say he is at peace now and reunited with my mother whom he missed terribly. Then you are left with this big gapping hole in your life. Its so true what others say you don't know what you have had till its gone !!!!My father was just 70.


THE MASTER'S BOUQUET The Master walked in His garden Plucking flowers along the way; He plucked two of my loved ones, To add to his bouquet. My heart at first was broken, At the loss of two so dear; But the tears I shed just washed my eyes, So I saw His way more clear. My Lord has a need for just this one, For the pattern He has in mind; But it's hard for the rest of us to see Why we must be left behind. Perhaps we are not ready to go just yet We may need to ripen more To reach the full blown fragrance My Lord is waiting for. To each, give forth a fragrance To each we chance to meet We should each be trying day by day To make our fragrance sweet. So I'm going to try my very best To be loving and kind each day, So at last I'll be counted worthy To be part of my Master's Bouquet.


	TILL WE MEET AGAIN.
