I decided to make this page as I think this is a great site to remember my granny by. Granny died on
the 1st march 2008 aged 72 years old. Her name is Ellie. She was a wonderful wife to her husband
Billy and a fantastic mother to 2 beautiful daughters Shirley and Gillian and a lovely son called
William aka bill. she was also a brilliant grandmother to 7 grandchildren
me,arlene,steven,mark,janet,david and andrew. she was also a great sister to her 4 brothers and
sister. my granny was the most kindhearted and caring person. she would have done anything for
anyone.never had a bad word to say about anybody. she was most happiest when her family and friends
were aroud her. she loved having people in her home and you never got to leave without havin a cup
of tea or a glass of juice and some buns. Even though granny wasn't well and was in hospital for a
bit she never complained, even the nurses kept sayin how lovely she was she used to tell them all
the time how grateful she was of them helpin her . we wern't expecting her to leave us so quick. She
woke up on that Saturday morning and decided she wanted to go shopping, she wanted to get granda a
birthday present for his birthday which was on the 4th march, so my granda and uncle took her n the
car and she was happily chattin away in the car the whole way to town. she then said she needed to
go to the toilet so granda said he would take her to asda and she could to go the toilet there. my
uncle helped her out of the car and took her by the arm and led her inside,and asked her if she was
ok. she said she was a bit short of breath and felt like dying. this wasnt unusual as she did get a
bit short of breath at times and had a spray that helped her. he didnt think anything of her he told
her she would be ok and he would be back in a couple to mins to give her time to go to the toilet.
he came bk, knocked at the door and called her name but he couldnt get a response, he started to get
really worried and got someone who worked in asda to come and open the door for him, when they got
the door opened they found granny unconsious lying on the floor, paramedics came and worked at her
for a while but granny just wasn't there, by the time my aunty n mum arrived she was
just taking her last breath. im still not really sure how she died, it was possible that she had a
heart attack, also when we got her death cert it said on it she had cancer. we did not know this
until we read it. granny came home for 2 days and got buried on the day of grandas birthday.i miss
her so much more than words can explain, she meant the world to me and more. she still does and
always will. it still really hasnt sunk in that she has gone, i keep expecting to see her wen i go
to visit granda. she was a very loved person, her funeral was massive and loads of people called at
her wake . she would of loved seeing them all.when she was at home i sat with her,she jus looked
like she was sleeping and she had a big smile on her face, she looked so peaceful. i love her so
much and i dont think anything is gonna be the same again without her. i jus want to give her a hug
and hear her voice again. i am happy that she is not suffering anymore and she is in a better place
with her mum n dad, her baby twins that were sadly still born and her brother abby. i will never
ever forget her. i think about you everyday granny and i love you to bits your my angel

My life changed, the very moment i found out
that you had passed away
i couldnt stop it, there was nothing i could say.
you've touched my life so deeply to a point ull never know
i try to think about you when i am feeling down and low.
sometimes when my day gets hard
i will think about your beautiful smile
and if i listen hard enough i will hear your voice after a while.
Its you who give me a reason to go on with my day
and now if i want to see you ill bow my head and pray.
i catch myself looking for you still
in the halls and at your front door
but when i call your name , there is no reply anymore
i never thought a day would come where we would be apart,
god has you in his keepings, we have you in our hearts
life will go on, but will never be the same
your beautiful smile is gone, but it will always remain.
your our angel from up above
youll always be missed but most importantly.. loved
jus one more minute god is all that i ask - why cant you give her back
it seems like such a simple task.
i guess people are right when they say god only takes the best,
i know enough now that your peacefully at rest
love you very much xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

With a broken heart and troubled mind,
I sit down by the side of your grave,
And I cry for my granny, i love so much,
For no longer can I be brave.
I know you'd hate to see me cry.
But, everything's gone wrong
And i need to tell you i love you
I haven't told you in so long.
You used to dry my tears away
And put a smile in their place.
Oh god, i'd be so happy
If i could only see her face.
You see, i miss her terribly
we were close, her and I.
She taught me so many things Lord
He took the time to answer why.
Why did you have to leave me?
I feel all so alone
I long to hear your voice again
To call you on the phone.
Oh Lord, please give me strength
To bear this awful pain
Tell her i love her lord
slow these tears that fall like rain.
Assure me that we'll meet again
Upon your golden shore
And once more she'll my granny
In Heaven, forever more.

If i had all the world to give
I'd give it, yes and more,
To hear her voice, see her smile
And greet her at the door
But all i can do, dear granny
Is to go and tend your grave
and leave behind tokens of love
to the best granny god made
i like to think when life is done
whereever heaven may be
she'll be standing at the door
up there to welcome me
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
