*•.¸♥ ★CANNOT THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH FOR LIGHTING CANDLES, TRIBUTES & PHOTOS YOU DO FOR MY
DAD! IT MEANS SUCH A LOT TO ALL OF US AND WE ARE SO GRATFUL AS WE KNOW YOU TAKE TIME OUT TO LIGHT
ALLAN ONE TOO. YOU AND YOUR ANGELS ARE VERY SPECIAL TO ALL OF US LOVE ALWAYS JULIE *•.¸♥ ★


Eric was my hero he was my dad,he sadly passed away on the 10th March 2004 of lung cancer. He was
Dad to Carol, Julie, Allan and Lee, brother to David, William and Julie son of Jess and Lillian. He
had many nephews neices and Grandchildren.

My Dad was an amazing man with great morals, he taught us to work hard and to be honest. He had many
friends in the Hulme area, he always said when you die give it six months and you will be forgotten,
well he is still often talked about with fondness by his friends and on a daily basis by his
family.

The pain of losing my Dad was unbearable, all his children was with him when he passed over. My
brother Allan held both his hands as he took his last breath which was apt as being the eldest son.
Unfortunately Allan passed away July 2007 from suicide, i know my dad would have returned the honour
and took Allan's hands home to spirit.

My Dad would have fought the world for his children, he was a real mans man, he had a way of making
us girls feel like Princesses.

He loved football (Manchester United Fan!) and Boxing, he loved socialising with friends in the
pub.

Not a day goes by when i do not think about you Dad, please take care of Allan for me and until we
meet again have a ball up there, loving you always Julie Wombat x x x

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LIGHT A CANDLE IF YOUR PASSING BY ITS MUCH APPRECIATED X X X

Love Lives On

Those we love
are never really lost to us -
we feel them
in so many special ways-
through friends
they always cared about
and dreams they left behind,
in beauty that they added to our days...
in words of wisdom we still carry with us
and memories that never will be gone...
Those we love are never really lost to us -
For everywhere their special love lives on.

I believe in angels,
the kind that heaven sends,
I'm surrounded by angels,
but I call them my friends.

Friends are angels that come from above,
sent down for god for you to love,
so if you are sad, and don't know what to do,
just remember that I care for you.

Love to you Eric, and all our G.T.S. friends

Dear Dad In Heaven

I sit here and ponder how very much

I'd like to talk with you today

There are so many things

That we didn't get to say.

I know how much you care for me

And how much I care for you,

And each time that I think of you

I know you'll miss me too.

An angel came and took you by the hand, and said

Your place was ready in Heaven, far above . . .

And you had to leave behind all those you dearly loved

You had so much to live for, you had so much to do . . .

It still seems impossible that God was taking you.

And though your life on earth is past, in Heaven it starts anew

You'll live for all eternity, just as God has promised you.

And though you've walked through Heaven's gate

We are never far apart

For every time I think of you,

You're right here, deep with-in my heart.

Love you DAD from Wombat x x x

One of the most special
places in my heart
will always be
saved for you.

Would it suprise you
to know how many
wonderful thoughts
you are such
a special part of?

Well....there is one
thing I hope won't
suprise you
even a little bit:
I'ts that you are
absolutely cherrished
by us.
you always will be.

Miss you Eric
I know that you and
Allan are looking after
each other.

Take care lots & lots of love
Elainexxxxx

I see tears fall down your face
When your thoughts have turned to me.
Just know that I’m in heaven,
With my Lord, who’s set me free.

No pain or sadness do I feel,
For God is by my side.
The beauty here in Heaven
Is now where I reside.

I know it’s hard for you to cope
For you can’t feel my touch.
But every moment, I can see
And love you very much.

When you are at your lowest
And feel you can’t go on,
Look towards the heavens
The light will be turned on.

Talk to me, just like you did
On earth when I was there.
You see, I’m not so far away …
Only as far as a prayer.

And when it’s time for you to join
Me up in Heaven above.
It’s then that you will realize,
The Golden Place of love.

For here there is no sadness,
Just everlasting light.
Someday we will be joined again,
When it’s time to take your flight.

Wings of Light

Angels above him,
guardians of his soul,
protect, guide, and assist him,
so that he may grow.

Archangel Michael on his right,
Gabriel on his left,
Rafael in front of him,
Auriel at his back,

Mother Earth beneath his feet,
Christ's Light from above,
enfold him in your wings of light,
fill him with your love.

Dad i love you so much Wombat x x x

Even though we have never met,
I feel a bond between us.
A bond that should have taken years to build,
Yet was built in a month or two.
A bond that lifelong friends should have,
Although most never do.
A bond that I am glad to share with you...
My Friend and Confidant.

You are not here in body and soul,
But as a lighted rectangle.
You come to me every day as
A message on my screen,
A message that I can rely on
To cheer me up and make my day.
Through a keyboard we share
Our ups and downs.

I have opened my inner self to you,
And you have to me as well.
We have traded secrets and laughs,
As well as sorrows and pain.
I have never met you, but feel as if
I have known you most of my life.
To most this might sound silly,
But I assure them, it is not.

I Miss You Dad x

To some you are forgotten,
To others a part of the past,
But to those of us who love and lost you,
Your love will always last,
It broke our hearts to loose you,
You did not go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day god called you home.

A heart of gold stopped beating,
Two shining eyes at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best,
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing is the same,
But as god calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Love You So Much Dad x x x

God must have know there would be times we'd need a word of cheer,
Someone to praise a triumph or brush away a tear.
He must have known we'd need to share the joy of 'little things'
In order to appreciate the happiness life brings.
I think He knew our troubled hearts would sometimes throb with pain,
At trials and misfortunes, or goals we can't attain.
He knew we'd need the comfort of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage to make a fresh, new start.
He knew we'd need companionship, unselfish....lasting....true,
And so God answered the heart's great need with Cherished Friends....like you!!
