My Sister Monica was 55 years of age when she took her own life, on Monday the 2nd of November 1992.
Monica had seemed so happy on the previous Saturday. our sister Teresa had held a party to celebrate
the opening of her new pub. On the Monday I was in my Mothers house along with Monica who had taken
her Yorkshire terrier pup to give to her Mother. Monica had seemed her usual self. About 3pm Monica
went home to have a drink, around 5pm she telephoned her son Paul to ask him if he would post a
letter for her addressed to Tracy her daughter in law. Paul didn't go to Monica's immediately, so
she phoned him again, later when he went to her house he couldn't get an answer so he went home and
tried to phone her. When she didn't answer the phone he went back to her house and looked through
the gap in the blinds, he could see Monica sat in the chair, he knocked on the patio doors but got
no response, Paul called the police who broke in. The police called for an ambulance and together
tried their very best to save Monica's life, sadly they were too late! Myself and some of my
sisters and other family members where waiting in the dining room but the police wouldn't let any
of us see her because she was in a bad way. She was moved to Preston hospital later that evening
which was one of the worst nights in our lives.
The following Monday we held Monica's funeral at St Teresa's R.C Church in Upholland.It was amazing
to see how many flowers Monica had. Monica left behind 4 Sons and 9 beautiful grandchildren, some of
whom she never got to see.
I wont go in to detail on how Monica ended her life because I have to take into consideration her
Sons feelings. At Monica's Inquest a few months later the Coroner recorded an Open Verdict and her
family welcomed that because we never know what might happen in the future.
Monica! NO ONE can harm you now, your safe in Gods arms and happy to be free with NO ONE to control
you anymore.You can enjoy the parties you loved so much and remember that you are still missed,
loved and remembered everyday by all your family and many friends that you had.
SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND FLY

My broken Heart..
Will never mend
So lots of kisses..
I shall send
We think of you..
In a better place
With beautiful wings..
And a smile on your face

Every day is a struggle you see
Trying to cope..
So please help me

How do I cope?
I do not know
My Heart is broken..
So that goes to show

I can't accept you are gone
I need you here..
Please keep me strong
Stay by my side..
Show me the way
Help me to cope every day

And I always will
Since you have been gone..
Time has stood still

♥*•♥ One Gift♥*•♥

One gift, above all others
God gives to us to treasure
One that knows no time, no place
And one gold cannot measure
♥•*♥*•♥^♥• *♥*•♥

The precious, poignant tender gift
Of Memory...that will keep
Of dear ones ever in our hearts
Although God gives them sleep
♥•*♥*•♥^♥• *♥*•♥

It brings back long remembered things
A song, a word, a smile
And the world's a better place
...because
We had them for awhile!

When you feel you miss me most,
As time goes drifting by,
Each memory will prove to you,
That love can never die,
That while I left you far too soon,
I did not go alone,
For the Father sent his Angels,
To gently guide me home,
Take comfort when you think of me,
Keep my love deep within your Heart,
And with the warmth of each memory,
We will never be apart.

I NEVER SAW YOUR WINGS

How is it that I never saw your wings
when you were here with me?
When you closed your eyes and soared
to the Heavens I could hear the
faint flutter of you wings as you left.
Your body no longer on this side
your spirit here eternally I see your halo shine.
I close my eyes and see the multicolored wings
surround me in my saddest moments and my happiest times.
Sister my angel God has given you your assignment
always my sister forever my angel.
You fly into my dreams and when I am asleep
I feel your wings brush against my face wiping away
the tears I shed since I can no longer hold
you in my arms but in my heart.
You earned those wings dear Monica
and you will always be my angel eternal.

GOOD MORNING BEAUTIFUL ANGEL. XxX

~ There Is A Place ~

♥****♥****♥****♥****♥****♥

There is a place high up above
Where Angels dwell, so full of love;
Soft music plays and rainbows fair
Swirl round the mansion God prepared.
There is much laughter, joyous glee
In this great place we all shall be.
And in the glorious days to come,
The Angels greet their loved ones home,
They wrap their wings around so tight,
And guide them up into the light.
This paradise waits for all who pray,
For those that believe in God, come what may,
For death is no more in His Heaven above,
Just happiness dwelling in sweet Angel's love.

Tributes For Week Starting 16th November


FOR MONDAY

Sadly missed along life's way,
Quietly remembered every day,
No longer in our life to share,
But in our hearts you’re always there.

FOR TUESDAY

I sit and wonder every day,
Why the Lord chose to call you away,
I think He saw you needed rest,
He only takes the very best.

FOR WEDNESDAY

Everyday in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are always near,
Still missed, loved, always dear.

FOR THURSDAY

Resting where no shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep he awaits us all;
God will link the broken chain,
When one by one we meet again.


FOR FRIDAY

Surrounded by friends
Yet all alone
The one I loved
God has called home

The hugs of friends
Helps ease the pain
And I know my loss
Is my loved one's gain

But tears now flow
Across my face
As I long for just
One more embrace

Then comfort comes
And I see Christ's face
He hugs my loved one
And I feel God's grace.


FOR SATURDAY

Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears...

It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.

My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know..
.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.


FOR SUNDAY

When I come to the end of the day
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love we once shared,
Miss me but let me go.

For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the maker's plan,
A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds -
Miss me, but let me go.
