Well Gran, it's Christmas day, and of course we're missing you
Hope you're having a wee drink up there as we have a wee toast to you,
Merry Christmas
Love you always Gran,
Love Janice, Courtney & Megan xxxxx

I can't believe it's been a week already,
I think of you every day!
remembering my love for your macaroni, and the tins of granny's lentil soup you would give me for lunch,
going to the coffee bean cafe on a Tuesday with Aunty May & Uncle Peter, or walking along the prom at Silverknowes with Aunty Hannah,
all the old movies we would watch or staying up late to watch Prisoner Cell Block H with you,
the time you let me wear your red shoes for a school disco,
when you and mum put the Champ on & I didn't want to watch it but ended up watching it anyway & crying my eyes out at how sad it was,
I will cherish these memories and lots of others that we made forever and always,
I am honoured to have had you in my life & to have been a part of yours, & that Courtney & Megan also had the honour of having you as their Great Gran,
From the words of a song you liked by Tina Turner you most definitely are
Simply The Best
We miss you everyday & will never ever stop loving you,
Love you always Gran 💟💞💖 from Janice xxxxx

Gran, I had so much fun growing up with you, I didn’t realise at the time we were making memories I just thought
we were having fun, when you looked after us or went on day trips.
You never complained once when I made you watch The Wizard of Oz every single day after nursery, even when you knew the whole film word for word.. Or when we used to watch Ed the Duck after school whilst eating a treat before Lorraine and Janice came home, then do our exercises to counteract the treat, haha!
You laughed when I told you your dress was yucky and were never cross when I went in a huff.
We went on so many adventures to Calender and Pitlochry, had picnics. We played dolls and you even let us put bobbles in your hair and let Lorraine crimp it.
You loved us unconditionally and I’ll always remember so fondly when you called me “doll” .
You have been such a strong lady and influence in my life, you have fought long and hard but it’s time to rest now and be surrounded by all your brothers and sisters.
Love you so much and will miss you lots and lots, love from your “doll” Louise xx 💖💖

Love you eternally, my one and only love,
Robert X

Angel's wings may carry you now but I will hold you in MY HEART forever, will love you always Gran xxxx
