ROD PASSED AWAY AGED 54 YEARS AFTER FIGHTING PROSTRATE AND BONE CANCER THAT TOOK THE USE OF HIS ARMS
AND LEGS. HE STARTED OFF HAVING PAINS IN HIS HIPS BUT WAS TOLD BY OUR GP THAT HE HAD A GROIN STRAIN.
AFTER REPEATED TRIPS FOR OVER A YEAR THEY FINALLY DID AN X-RAY, THAT AFTERNOON WE WERE TOLD HE HAD
TERMINAL BONE CANCER. HE HAD A SCAN TWO DAYS LATER THAT SHOWED HE HAD CANCER FROM HIS SCULL TO HIS
TOES.ROD COULD NOT HANDLE THE DIAGNOSIS AND BECAME VERY ANGRY TO THE ONE PERSON CLOSEST TO HIM!!!HE
WAS ONLY GIVEN SIX MONTHS TO LIVE BUT HIS SHEER ANGER GAVE HIM SIX YEARS. HIS STRENGTH AMAZED
EVERYONE. HE WOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO GIVE HIM A TABLET OR INJECTION WITHOUT A BATTLE OF REASON.
THIS STRENGTH KEPT HIM GOING. SADLY THE CANCER PARALISED HIS NERVES TO HIS THROAT SO HE COULD NO
LONGER EAT OR DRINK. HE WENT INTO THE HOSPICE FOR PAIN RELIEF. THEY SAID HE WOULD NOT LAST THE
NIGHT. I PROMISED HIM I WOULD NOT LEAVE HIM. HE PROVED THEM WRONG AGAIN AS I SAT BY HIS BED
CONTINUALLY FOR ANOTHER TEN DAYS UNTIL HIS PASSING. NOW FREE FROM PAIN AND SAFE IN THE ARMS OF THE
ANGELS XXX ROD LEFT BEHIND JAN, STEPCHILDREN EMMA PAUL AND KATY. XXXX

I know that it would ring all day
As i would ring and ring you
Just to ask if your ok
We could speak for hours and hours
And tell each other about our day
If only there was a telephone in heaven
I know that i would ring often your way
There as to be a line thats open
As heaven as just about all
There must be a telephone in heaven
As i just need to make one call
So love if you hear it ringing
Please pick up, as you know its me
I pray and i hope theres a telephone
So i can i ring you each day at three
Yes i wish theres a telephone in heaven
Its not much i ask for from god
Just so i can keep in touch
With my loved one, soul mate, my rod.

IF ONLY.
If Heaven Had A Phone
I cannot dial your number,
I can't get through to you,
I called the operator,
She did all that she could do.
There is no code for heaven,
I cannot place the call,
No numbers left to call,
I reckon I've tried them all.
If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
There's things I want to say.
To tell you that I love you,
And miss you every day,
How much I prayed to god,
That he could let you stay.
If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
I'd hear your voice, know you're okay,
I just want to speak to heaven,
Please do you have a direct line,
Operator says no number,
But your loved one is doing fine.
LOVE ALWAYS YOUR JAN XX

Wedding band
A teardrop fell upon your picture
As i held it tight in my hand
My eyes were an ocean of tears
All im left with is a wedding band
There's no way to look to the future
Not when im haunted by my past
Ive pleaded i dont lose my mind
For i want your memorys to last
If i whispered again that i love you
Ive whispered it a thousand times
So instead of actions and words
Ive writen it in my rhymes
If i die tomorrow i will be happy
For i know i will see you again
And i will hold you forever more
Free us both of this hurting pain

An Angel kissed my tears away today
when I was sad.
I wasn't feeling quite myself
my day had been so bad.
I felt a warmth brush by me
that quickly dried my tears.
A gentle, kind, and loving touch
that seemed to hold me near.
Immediately, I felt so much better
and the day seemed brighter too.
I guess that's just the way you feel
when an Angel comforts you.

.X GOODNIGHT SWEETHEART. X
♥♥♥ I Was Loved, Therefore I Am. ♥♥♥
I was loved, therefore I am,
And in being loved, I am treasured.
When I peeled away my layers,
And all that was left was my essence,
The bareness of me,
I was still loved.
I was loved, therefore I am,
And in being loved I was able to grow.
In my mistakes held,
In my successes celebrated,
I was always loved.
I was loved therefore I am,
And in being loved I learned to love.
In the sun filled day,
In the ecstasy of the night,
I was loved and loved others.
To be loved is all you need:
I was loved....and so, I will always be.
♥♥♥ LOVE JUDE.X ♥♥♥
I said a prayer for you today and I asked the Lord above
To keep you safely in His care and enfold you in His love
I did not ask for fortune; for riches or for fame –
I only asked for blessings in the Saviour’s holy name –
Blessings to surround you in times of trail and stress
And inner joy to fill your heart with peace and happiness...

KEEP MY MEMORY WITH YOU,
FOR MEMORIES NEVER DIE;
I WILL BE THERE WITH YOU
WHEN YOU LOOK ACROSS THE SKY.
I WILL BE THERE IN THE CLOUDS,
IN THE BIRDS THAT FILL THE AIR.
IN THE BEAUTY OF A FRAGRANT ROSE
YOU WILL FIND MY MEMORY THERE.
YOU WILL FEEL ME IN THE TENDERNESS
OF A TOUCH,
YOU WILL HEAR ME IF YOU LISTEN
IN THE EVENINGS GENTLE HUSH.
WHEN YOUR HEARTS ARE HEAVY,
AND YOU FEEL THAT YOU ARE ALONE;
JUST REACH DOWN DEEP INSIDE OF YOU
FOR YOUR HEART IS NOW MY HOME.
I WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU,
I WILL NEVER GO AWAY;
FOR I WILL LIVE ON IN YOUR HEARTS,
FOREVER AND A DAY.
Life Is Not The Same Without You.
The sun still rises in the east.
and darkness falls at night.
But nothing now seems quite the same.
each day is not as bright.
The birds still sing the flowers grow.
The breeze still whispers too.
But it will never ever be.
The same world without you.
I'm so sad you had to go.
Your leaving caused such pain.
But you are very special.
And my loss was Heavens Gain.
LOVE JUDE.X
DANIEL SWADDLE'S MAM
