Aww....goodnight, my lovely mate


Love, and miss you loads

'RIP Julie' indeed Guinevere - I think that is the right thing to do now and at the right time - we will all remember her !! <3

I will e-mail GR too to ask them to do it now !
Very best wishes to all her family !!

Dea Xxx

I've written to GR and asked them to "unstick" this thread so it can slip down the boards.

I don't want to delete it in case someone wants to read it again in the future.

RIP, Julie.

Gwynne

What a lovely poem.

<3 <3 <3

Safe passage Julie.

Good-bye, dear lady.

Wonderful.

Amen.

<3

It did Prickles

Gins., i don't do Facebook so i don't quite understand.

I searched high and low for something that i thought appropriate for Julie's special day.

I found that poem.

If that poem bought comfort to any of Julie's close friends or family today..........i will be soo delighted.

Oh sorry, I could have cut the 'poem'

;-)

Prickles, I posted your 'post' on FB....here it is

Special thoughts of dear Julie and all her friends and family on this very sad day.

If tomorrow starts without me, and I’m not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
...I wish so much you wouldn’t cry the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say.
I know how much you care for me, and how much I care for you,
and each time that you think of me I know you’ll miss me too;

But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready in heaven far above,
and that I’d have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I’d always thought I didn’t want to die.
I had so much to live for and so much yet to do.
it seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, I thought, just for a while,
I’d say goodbye and hug you and maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realised that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things that I’d miss come tomorrow.
I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through Heaven’s gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity and all I’ve promised you,
Today your life on earth is past but here it’s starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last.
and since each day’s the same, there’s no longing for the past.

But you have been so faithful, so trusting, so true.
Though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn’t do.
And you have been forgiven and now at last you’re free.
So won’t you come and take my hand and share my life with me?"

So if tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart,
for every time you think of me, please know I’m in your heart.

Gins....I didn't know Julie personally...........but i found her thread sooo inspirational, she touched my heart in more ways than you will ever know.

She had such a fighting spirit.

So sorry that you have lost a close friend.

You take care now. Prickles. xx

So, our Jules with 'urns' ( or jugs as I used to call her) has gone :-(


God bless her and love to her family, sister Wendy, partner and two young children


How I miss talking with her.


Ive set up the direct debit to Cancer Research UK, today, at the very moment of her funeral....I will always remember her, and my bank statement will be a reminder of Jules each month
