I have created this memorial for my lovely nanny bet
Its not just for me! but also for my mother - I know it has been hard for her not having her mother around, and there have been many times where she has needed her.
It has been 17 years since she passed, but not a single day has passed where she hasn't been in our thoughts.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I remember so clearly the last time I saw you. even though I was only a little girl (10yrs) It was at the hospital - you were ever so poorly - Dad and I walk to the little shop to buy a miniture bottle of booze! lol I didnt really understand why at the time. Back to the hospital we went - I remember closing my eyes as I walked very quickly through the ward. At your bed I was rather worried about all the tubes and wires but I held your hand tightly and through your weakness you managed to squeeze mine back alittle. Then with a hospital syringe a few drops of your favourite drink (watered down)was popped in your mouth - and that was the last time I saw you smile and last time I saw you.
Your were a beloved wife, Mother and Grandmother.
My memories of you are wonderful I loved you very much and still do xx all my love Michelle xx
(A little poem I found)
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.
Nanny Bet
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I’d walk right up to heaven
And bring you home again.
Remembering You Always Nanny Bet
Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other
That we are still
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed
At the little jokes we always enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without effort
Without the ghost of a shadow in it
Life means all that it ever meant
It is the same as it ever was
There is absolute unbroken continuity
What is death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind
Because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval
Somewhere very near
Just around the corner
All is well.
Nothing is past; nothing is lost
One brief moment and all will be as it was before
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!
This Beautiful Butterfly..

Is a gift to you above..
With it's wings of many colours
Made with love
You fly high..
Just like this beautiful butterfly
You fly past the stars..
And up to the moon
Oh why sweet angel..
Was you gone too soon?
You spread your wings..
Just like this beautiful butterfly
Go fly through the clouds
And up to the sky
With not a care..
You fly free
And if you can..
Fly home to me
