This is a tribute to our dad. Husband to Marie, and dad to, John, George, Carol, David, Margaret and Sharon.
He has 12 grandchildren, Donna, Craig, Rachel, Kerry, Stacey, Mark, Sean, Shareen, Stephen, Ben, Lyndsey and Lucy. Also, 4 great grand-children, Danielle, Baby Rudi(angel), Lewis, Mckenzie and Leo

Our Dad was a very proud man, and worked in various jobs, but his main job was a winder at Golborne Colliery. He had so many friends and a lot of them where associated with Clubland scene in Wigan and surrounding areas. He compared at many social clubs, and was a beautifull singer. At each of our weddings he has sung to us and the family, and everyone who knew our Dad, always had a good word to say about him. He loved a flutter on the horses or the dogs, but never really cared to bet on Football. Until one day, he tried his chance on an Accumilator, picking a certain amount of teams to win...and guess what....he did...just under a thousand pound, but he didn't keep it to himself, he shared it with all the family...that was what our Dad was like, generous, kind, thoughtfull, and willing to give something of his own up for someone else to enjoy...He was a treasure and we miss him dearly....

We sadly lost our dad on the 10th August 2003, to the dreadfull disease....cancer. The whole family cared for Dad in his last weeks at home. He was at peace at last, free from pain.

Our lives have not been the same since, our mum struggles every single day without him, and is thankfull she has her family around her always.

We love and miss you so much dad, that it really hurts, but we wanted to pay you this tribute, to let you know how proud we are to say we are George Reid's children..

Thank for everything dad....LOVE YOU XXXXXX

CANDLE OF LOVE

·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:·

Few people come into our lives
and make everything shine,
but you're one of those
rare and splendid jewels
who makes the whole world bright.
When I was sad, you made me smile.
When I was alone and blue,
you were there for me,
and you made me feel strong enough
to accomplish anything.
Because I appreciate
the many things you do,
more than words could say,
I'm sending you the Candle of Love,
and hoping you receive
many blessings from above.

·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:·
Please send the candle of love
to someone who has touched your life,
and keep the flame of love burning bright.
·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:·

Our lives go on without you
But nothing is the same,
We have to hide our heartaches
When someone speaks your name.
Sad are the hearts that love you
Silent the tears that fall,
Living our hearts without you
Is the hardest part of all.
You did so many things for us
Your heart was kind and true,
And when we needed someone
We could always count on you.
The special years will not return
When we were all together,
But with the love within our hearts
You will walk with us forever.

Friendship Rose

☆ ¸.•*(¸.•*´ ☆ `*•.¸)`*•.¸☆

Just like a rose,
so precious and rare,
is the forever friendship
the two of us share.

Planted with kindness,
it's warmed by the sun
of caring and sharing,
laughter and fun.

It's grounded in trust
and nurtured by love,
with a sprinkling of grace
from God up above.

Tears of sadness and joy,
like dew,
renew this friendship
I share with you.

And in the heart's garden,
we find the room
to be ourselves,
to grow and bloom.

A blessing of beauty unsurpassed,
our friendship's a flower
that will always last.

xxx you are in my thoughts and prayers xxx love always xxx

Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
To sweet eternity.

We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We are all meant to learn some things,
But never meant to stay...

Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know,
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.

But when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.

I have not turned my back on you,
so there is no need to cry.
I'm watching you from heaven,
just beyond the morning sky.
I've seen you almost fall apart,
when you could barely stand.
I asked the Lord to comfort you,
and watched him take your hand.
He told me you are in more pain,
then I could ever be.
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard,
then gave your hand to me.
Although you may not feel my touch,
or see me by your side.
I've whispered that I love you,
while I wiped each tear you cried.
So please try not to ache for me,
we'll meet again one day,
beyond the dark and stormy sky,
a Rainbow lights the way.

Thank you andrea xxxx

I have a list of friends I know...
all written in a book,
And every now and then...
I go and take a look.
That is when I realize
these names...they are a part,
not of the book they're written in...
but taken from the heart.
For each Name stands for someone...
who has crossed my path sometime,
and in that meeting they have become...
the reason and the rhyme
Although it sounds fantastic...
for me to make this claim,
I really am composed...
of each remembered name.
Although you're not aware...
of any special link,
just knowing you, has shaped my life...
more than you could think.
So please don't think my greeting...
as just a mere routine,
your name was not...
forgotten in between.
For when I send a greeting...
that is addressed to you,
it is because you're on the list...
of friends I'm indebted to.
So whether I have known you...
for many days or few,
in some ways you have a part...
in shaping things I do.
I am but a total...
of many friends I've met,
you are a friend I would prefer...
never to forget.
Thank you for being my friend!

LOVE ALWAYS ELAINE XXX
