Graham (my dad),
Diagnosed with Cancer of the esophagus in March 2007. He never moaned, not once even during Chemo
and Radiotherapy, aged 60 he was the best man ever!! Sadly rushed to Hospital on 4th August and
died on 7th August 2007, we never had time to say goodbye, so this site is a real tribute to a man,
my dad who will be so sadly missed by my mum Sue, his mum aged 90 - Ellen, his brother Stewart and
my girls Donna (9) and Luisa (8), my brother - Grant and his wife Tami, my husband Neale and most of
all me.

As you are here, pay a tribute to my daughter Evelyn Cook who is now with my dad and is looking
after her, god bless you dad xxx

If Tears Could Build a Stairway

If tears could build a stairway,
and memories a lane.
We would walk right up to Heaven
and bring you back again.

No farewell words were spoken.
No time to say 'Goodbye'.
You were gone before we knew it,
and only God knows why.

Our hearts still ache with sadness,
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to love you-
No one can ever know.

But now we know you want us
to mourn for you no more;
To remember all the happy times,
life still has much in store.

Since you'll never be forgotten.
We pledge to you today-
A hollowed place within our hearts
is where you'll always stay.

Gain strength from one another.

Dear Tonya and Family, I lost my dear wife Christine to that accursed disease 7 years ago she was 54, it very very hard to come to terms with losing a partner but if like myself and my children you all pull together you can gain strength from one another, the pain never goes away but it is possible to cope in time with each others help, god bless you all Graham has no pain anymore, best wishes to you all BE STRONG!

poem

LIFETIME WISH

If I could have one life time wish
One dream come true
I would pray to God with all my heart
For yesterday and you

A thousand words can't bring you back
I know because I've tried
And neither will a million tears
I know because I've cried

You left behind broken hearts
And happy memories too
But I never wanted memories
I only wanted you

To your resting place I go
Flowers are placed with care
But nobody knows the heartache I feel
As I turn and leave you there

RIP Graham - That evil disease cannot hurt you no more x

If we stay visible
There is always hope
If we keep our strength
We learn to cope

If we try harder
we get better each day
If we speak louder
They will hear what we say

If we just crumble
All around us will fall
If we just stand still
Our life will just stall

If only we could have
What made us so weak
If only we could have
That smile back on our cheek

'If only' we repeat
nearly every single day
If only we could have
Our loved ones who passed away

If Only!

Another waste of a life R.I.P

What a handsome man took to soon, well i no what yous are going through i lost my Uncle who was like the dad i never had last October, he was in hosp for 3 months before he was taken from us so suddenly at the age of 48, and the day he went was the day our hearts were broken, people say time is a healer but its not and it gets harder. All you can do is stick together and your love will get yous through it, think of your memories i bet there is a load of them, its not easy im still going through my grief. My thoughts are with you all, night night Godbless you, if you find my Tony up there hes one hell of a guy love to yous all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
