our mother was born in 1935 to samuel and ellen kelly,, she was born with spina bifida and was the second child of a family of six. her siblings were joan,ellen louise,samuel, dorothy,and brian,, when mum was only ten our grannie died due to tubercolosis and grandad was left to bring up the children,, mum had to grow up quick being the second eldest and her childhood as it had been was gone forever. she missed her mother and never really got over her death.

she had many operations as a child due to deformitys in her right foot but never the less she left school and went straight in to work after leaving school. she worked in the cotton mills in her home town of denaby,yorkshire. mum also sang in the local working mans club and one evening while in there she met our late father ronnie,, he offered to buy her a drink on the condition she sang a duet with him,, she agreed and the song was "true love" little did they know that two weeks later they would be husband and wife.

every one said it wouldnt last but they didnt count on mum and dads determination,, they started a family quite quickly and a year later along came katherine,, followed equally as quick by ronnie junior, phillip,roland,jimmy,and sophie. they decided their family was complete and so it was for the next nine years.. then along came grayham and mum and dad doted on him. a few more years passed by and mum was by now in her mid fortys and thought she had reached the menopause,, well so the dr said. But mum knew better and said it was baby number eight was on the way and she was right. four months later danny was born,, our youngest very much loved and wanted baby brother. by now kath was almost 22 so ther was quite an age difference between the eldest and danny but our mum and dad took it in their stride and brought him home as proud as they did their first.

some weeks later danny wasnt well and the dr decided to admit him in to hospial it was then it was discovered he had downs syndrome,, my mum and dad were advised to go home and forget about him that he would never have a normal life,, mum and dad brought him home and there he stayed where he belonged.


as the years passed mums health deteriated and she was diagnosed with parkinsons disease in her late fiftys. she was quite quickly refined to a wheelchair and went to live with katherine and her husband george,, danny missed mum and soon after he moved in with them too.

unfortunately our dad ronnie died in 2002 and we all missed him terribly and still do,, mum often spoke about his little visits it was obviuos he was still close to her heart because she would imagine he had been, kath soon realised mum was developing other health problems and mum was diagnosed with dementia.


she never forgot her children though and her many grandchildren and great grand children,, she was funny and kept every one on their toes including her carers who without their help kath would never have managed to keep mum at home. mum developed pneumonia on the 2nd of october 2009 the day after our late fathers 77th birthday she passed peacefully in her sleep at 1.40pm on the 6th of october 2009 with her loving and much loved family beside her xxx mum we will love you always xxxxxxxx

REMEMBERING OUR MUM TWO YRS TODAY LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH MUM XXXX

You were a precious gift from God above,
so much beauty, grace and love.
You touched our hearts in so many ways,
your smile so bright even on the bad days.
You heard God's whisper calling you home,
you didn't want to go and leave us alone.
You loved us so much, you held on tight,
till all the stregnth was gone and you could no longer fight.
He had called your name twice before,
you knew you couldn't make him wait anymore.
So you gave your hand to God and slowly drifted away,
knowing that with our love we will be together again some day

REMEMBERING OUR MUM ON MOTHER#S DAY

Our mother is the sweetest and
Most delicate of all.
She knows more of paradise
Than angels can recall.

She's not only beautiful
But passionately young,
Playful as a kid, yet wise
As one who has lived long.

Her love is like the rush of life,
A bubbling, laughing spring
That runs through all like liquid light
And makes the mountains sing.

And makes the meadows turn to flower
And trees to choicest fruit.
She is at once the field and bower
In which our hearts take root.

She is at once the sea and shore,
Our freedom and our past.
With her we launch our daring ships
Yet keep the things that last.
LOVE AND MISS YOU MUM
SOPHIE & KATHERINE

To Our Beautiful One

I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
I think of you in silence I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping I have you in my heart.

ღ Signs ღ
(By Jamie Van Der Meer)

My angel sends a butterfly,
To land upon my arm.
They send me signs to let me know,
They’re safe & loved & warm.

My angel sends me rainbows
On a cloudy day.
I understand that they are near,
And things will be okay.

Today they sent me snowflakes,
From a sunny sky above.
I could feel their presence,
And the power of their love.

My angel sends me little signs
In the moon and skies
The signs are subtle, yet I know,
They're meant just for my eyes.

I look for all these little signs,
To comfort me each day.
The signs can even make me laugh,
My angel loves to play!

These signs are The Creator's things,
And you might think it's odd,
To believe my angel sends these signs,
They do...they’re one with God.

ღ Pax ღ
(By D.H. Lawrence)

All that matters is to be at one with the living God
To be a creature in the house of the God of Life.

Like a cat asleep on a chair
at peace, in peace
and at one with the master of the house,
with the mistress at home,
at home in the house of the living,
sleeping on the hearth, and yawning before the fire.

Sleeping on the hearth of the living world,
yawning at home before the fire of life
feeling the presence of the living God
like a great reassurance
a deep calm in the heart
a presence
as of a master sitting at the board
in his own and greater being,
in the house of life.

✿ A Dream in Winter ✿

When all the daisies and daffodils
are buried deep below,
and summer's but a memory
hidden 'pon the drifting snow ~
'tis there beneath the whitened glow,
in a bed of greenest green,
that lives the dreams of springtime hue
with a gleam of emerald sheen.

When all the trees are bared and bent
against wintry winds that blow,
and spring is but a wistful sigh
'pon the branches that bow low ~
'tis there within the boughs so wide,
in a bed of greenest green,
that lives the buds of springtime hue
with a gleam of emerald sheen.

When roses fade 'pon winter's morn
as their petals flee on frosty breath,
and thorns are left to sadly yearn
in their bed of beauty's death ~
'tis there beneath those roses grown,
in a bed of greenest green,
that lives a vision of springtime hue
with a gleam of pastel sheen.

When winter brings a world of white,
a wonderland of icy glow,
and ends the seasons of green, and gold,
hidden 'neath a field of snow ~
'tis there the sleeping earth awaits
in a bed of springtime green,
sighing softly through winter's chill,
'pon a dream of emerald sheen.

The Gift That You Are

Startled and fascinated by the beauty and fragility
of your wings,
I watch as you move
so gently
so quietly
almost unexpectedly
through my world.

And then I watch as you move on,
fluttering softly into the distance.
Pleading silently, I beg you,
please ... don't go.

I haven't yet had the time
to memorize
to remember
to understand
the uniqueness of the beauty that is yours.

I know I cannot hold you for long,
capturing you for my world.
But, rest gently with me
if only for a moment.

That I may treasure the memory
and the beauty of the
gift that you are.

ჱܓ Memories like Wildflowers ჱܓ

Memories of you are like
wildflowers in a meadow.
Sometimes they come one at a time,
others are in bunches.
They pop up when I least expect.
Revealing vivid, beautiful images.
Often brightening my dark day.
They bring me back to a happier, simpler time.
Before long, they fade and are gone.
Always reminding me of how very much
I miss you...

♥ Dreaming With A Broken Heart ♥
John Mayer

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
Then waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for a moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with her crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

Now do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hands
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hands?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hands?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my, roses in my hands?

Would you get them if I did?
No you won't, 'cause you're gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part.
