peter was afamily man he had 12 other brothers and sisters all but one has sadly passed away. he left behind 5 children helen louise susan robert and micheal. 8 grandchildren who thought he was god they all called him pappy as granddad sounded to old. sadly he passed away in june 2007 at home age 60. i could be here all day writing about what sort of man pete was but in short he was dam funny caring, to me he was everything and more my whole world, the first person to hold my nephew mark who is now 15 who still was pappys baby first born grandson he was so proud when louise had the twins he cried like a baby brought champagne and everything which is shocking for my dad. he and my mum christine were married for 26 yrs but together for about 34 yrs or so. they had hard time but always stuck together, they enjoyed life going out on holiday with the family, friday night down the pub. i have so many brilliant memories of my dad as do all my brothers and sisters. when i was about 7 yrs old every friday night paid day for my dad he would come home with a bag of penny sweets for me and my brother micheal and a fruit and nut bar for my mum. on sundays when he thought micheal and me were at church but really hid round the corner he would make us strawberry milkshake for when we got back. those memories i will never forget and so many more. at helens bbq when we were wrestling on the floor to many drinks but thats what he was like. he was and still is my hero my world and more. dad leaving us has cause so much heart break. no one can fix that make the pain go away it will stay with me forever till i can see him again. we know he is no longer in pain but selfish as this sounds we still wish he was here with the pain just so we could hold him smell him tell him how much he means to us and that we love him

Happy Christmas thinking of you always x

WE DO NOT NEED A SPECIAL DAY
We do not need a special day
To bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
Are very hard to find.

Each morning when we awake,
We know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.

Our hearts still ache with sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.

Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we love you still,

There will always be a heartache,
And often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.

If tears could make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.

We hold you close within our hearts;
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.

Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.


Happy Christmas to you and all your family I will be thinking of you all on such a difficult day x

Until We Meet Again
If there ever was a way
Of making dreams come true
Then I would wish for the joy
Of a moment spent with you.
I'd wish that even though
From this life you've gone away,
I would know that forever
You'll walk beside me every day.
One day we'll meet again
For, in my heart I know its true
That one day we'll share happy times
Just as we always used to do.
