God saw you getting tired, & a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you & whispered ‘come to me’. With tearful eyes we watched you, saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we couldn’t make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, tired hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us he only takes the best.

Nana Our beautiful Nana has gone away, free from this life, she just could not stay. It was time to go and say her goodbyes, leaving her family, tears in our eyes. But please do not cry, nana won’t want us sad, remember the good times we have all had. Remember how she would chatter and not stop for breath, how we would laugh with each other thinking “have we gone deaf”! Remember her cuppas she would make them so nice. Remember her knitted slippers, we all had them at least twice. Memories are what we cherish so dear, the way she would hug us and keep us all near. Her family was her everything, she was proud every day, she loved us all equally, in her own special way. We will miss her voice, her hugs and her smell, but we will meet again she would always tell. Goodnight and god bless, at night she would say. Goodnight and god bless Nana, we will miss you each and everyday. XxxX

She is Gone You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left. Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her, or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember her and only that she’s gone, or you can cherish her memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back, or you can do what she’d want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
