You've always had a special place, deep within my heart. Forever there it will remain, whether we're near or far apart. A light from the family has gone now A voice we loved is stilled A place is vacant in the home Which never can be filled If our love could have saved you You never would have died We tried and tried, but God knew best And in his mercy, he took you home to rest! Heaven has received another angel The night another star Your life has become a loving memory I know you never will be far. I know you're watching over us As our lives go on I'll treasure the memories I have of you I cant believe your gone. You really were one in a million A cut above the rest All that knew you would agree You simply were the best. So Grandad I will say goodbye I love and miss you with all my heart But as long as I have my memories We'll never be far apart 'Rest peacefully Grandad, I Love You. so proud to call myself your grandaughter xXx"

Rest in peace Grandad, I can not find the words on how I feel at the moment or what im thinking but I do know that I do know I will never forgot you and I will always love you. I remember that you taught me how to make my first cup of tea and to this day I will never forgot how. I remember when we used watched wrestling and you used to try and teach me the names of the wrestlers but I don't think it worked apart from one or two. I remember walking into the flat and smelling freshly baked fruit and sponge cake no one could bake those cakes like you. I will never forgot your warm smile and how you made me laugh when I was feeling down. I am so happy to have had you in my life and the time we shared together. Grandad I love you and I am so proud to call myself your Granddaughter. xxx
