Topic: The end of an Era<\/strong><\/p>\n

From:<\/p>\n

Julie, posted <\/strong>30\/9\/2023 5.23 PM<\/p>\n

I have been to visit Wilko’s for the last time today. I found myself wondering, which did Ian love more, Wilko’s or Woolworths? Well, I had a read through my memories and Wilko’s is mentioned in Mandy’s tribute and in the memories. I remember Ian remarking how one of the local ones was a “Wilko’s the size of Mars!” So I’m going to say I think he loved Wilko’s more. I think it says how everything changes as you go through life, and is continuing to change, although I do wonder what Ian would have said about the changes during the last few years.<\/p>\n

Going into our 16th year without you Ian still as hard but lots of good memories. Often wondered what\u2019s happened to Naj Ian. l’d love to know how\u2019s he doing, he was a great friend to you for many years. Your Dad’s in a Nursing Home now with Dementia, I know you\u2019re watching over him and keeping him company, it\u2019s hard without him as well as you. I know what you always said (it can only get better) when I adopted Star she made all the difference to my life. I know you\u2019ll understand what I mean. Love you as always \ud83d\ude18

I don’t know what you’d think about what’s happening now Son. Would have been hard for you to isolate with all the lovely friends you have. You loved being in touch in with everyone and seeing them. But I know what you’d have said Son, life is for living, enjoy each day. I constantly say this to myself remembering your note when I was in hospital, Don’t worry mum remember it can only get better ! This was your attitude through life and it is still true today. You are still achingly missed by us all, Love Mum and Dad and not forgetting little Star our new member of the family I know you’d have loved her \u2764\ufe0f

I sang happy birthday to you today, & no my singing hasn\u2019t improved \ud83d\ude09 so I\u2019m sure you covered your ears! I would give anything to be able to speak to you right now, to hug you, to laugh with you, just to see your smile and hear your laugh. We were in Rhodes and as we walked through the old town I felt close to you, knowing you had walked these steps with Jools. I feel that way when ever I go somewhere you\u2019ve visited, daft I know but it comforts me. I smile every time I struggle to find you at the Tithe, and I know that you\u2019re laughing with me \ud83d\ude02 Your tree is growing despite this COVID-19 that is spoiling a lot of things. Damon & Lucy picked 13\/09 to marry so Damon could feel close to you – they\u2019ve had to change to March 21 but I know you will be with them whenever they marry. The last year\u2019s been hard, but good news is that Josh has a 2:1! And like you always said, \u201cthere\u2019s always someone worse off\u201d. So big hugs \ud83e\udd17 lots of love \ud83d\udc93 until I see you again \ud83d\ude18

13 years …. where have they gone…..it doesn’t hurt any less I’ve just learnt to accept it…So your big 50, me & Bill took mum & dad (& Kia ) to Skegvegas! The sun was out it was a beautiful day we had fish & chips, donuts & ice cream, the only thing missing was you.
I don’t need a special day to bring you to mind
The days I do not think of you are very hard to find
Each morning I wake I know that you are gone
No one sees the pain as I carry on
My heart still aches & tears still flow
The pain of losing you, only those close know
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
Love you 2 bags bro xxxxx

Our Son it’s been 12 years where’s the time gone ? So much has changed Ian mostly for the better Your Great Nephew Arthur was born 3 years ago on this day and I know you would have loved his sense of humour and smile. Renee and Alfie, your Great Niece and Nephew, are now 9 and 6, Alfie getting cheekier by the day and Nay getting more beautiful with a caring personality just as you had. We love you and miss you so much it hurts Ian and I know your sister, wife and families still hurt as much sending our love as always xxx

Our son left us 11 years ago now but his memories are still strong. On the anniversary of the day sad but other days memories make us smile and help us to carry on. You never get over the loss of a child you just have to learn to live with it . The sadness for his wife and sister must be overwhelming at times but at other times they remember and smile .\ud83d\ude18
