♥♥ A YOUNG UNCLE JACKY 'TEDDY BOY'♥♥
John William Thornton better known as 'Jacky' died on Easter Sunday (23rd March 2008) 3 days before
his 74th Birthday.Jacky had been in poor health for the past couple of years and never really got
over the death of his brother Robert(my Dad).He died peacefully of heart failure at the RVI
hospital.
Jacky was married to May who sadly died 24th March 1984 who he loved and missed very much.
Jacky was born in Benwell but ended his years living in Newbiggin Hall.
He was the eldest of a family of 7, they were Robert(deceased), Phyllis(deceased), Peter,
Allan,Ellen and Michael. He has 2 loving children, Steven and Linda and 5 lovely grandchildren
Michael, Vicky ,Amy,Lee and Sarah.
Jacky was a larger than life character who was always laughing and joking.His favourite pastime was
going to the club, he also enjoyed reading and listening to music,Simon & Garfunkel being one of his
favourites.He would play it at full blast,his daughter Linda having to tell him to turn it down.( A
bit of parent, kid reversal!).
He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.
Rest in peace Uncle Jacky xxxxxxxxx
Music: Simon & Garfunkel,Bridge over troubled water, played at Jacky's funeral.

♥ If I could have one wish ♥
♥ If i could wish upon a star ♥
♥ I would wish for you back here ♥
♥ I know you're happy where you are ♥
♥ But i miss you and want you near ♥
♥ Although i see you everyday ♥
♥ In my thoughts and in my dreams ♥
♥ I miss you more than words can say ♥
♥ It just gets worse, it seems ♥
♥ I try to be strong for others around ♥
♥ But all i want to do is cry ♥
♥ I just sit for hours by myself ♥
♥ And ask the question 'Why'? ♥
♥ It's the strongest pain I've ever felt ♥
♥ I don't think I could describe it ♥
♥ Although I try, I do my best ♥
♥ I don't think that I can hide it ♥
♥ My life will never be the same ♥
♥ That's why it's hard to bear ♥
♥ Because since the day you left us ♥
♥ I think that life's not fair ♥
♥ Some things seem not to matter now ♥
♥ Even things that mattered before ♥
♥ You have no idea what I would give up ♥
♥ To make this pain less sore ♥
♥ People say we'll meet again ♥
♥ And yeah I know that's true ♥
♥ But I wish it didn't have to be this way ♥
♥ Because you know how much I miss you ♥
♥ I love you with all my heart and soul ♥
♥ And there's one thing you need to know ♥
♥ There's not one person in the human race ♥
♥ That could ever take your place ♥
LOVE ALWAYS ELAINE AND MY ANGELS DEMI-LEIGH, MARY AND JIMMY XXXXXXXXXXXX

Pass this on to all your close friends
I recieved this lovely poem today
I would like to share it with you
Its just a way of saying Im grateful
For everything you do
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own;
A place to find serenity,
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea,
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair,
But let me be what I know best,
A friend who's always there.
Thankyou!
THANK YOU MY FRIEND XXXXXX
Xx Pass this on to all your close friends xX
If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own;
A place to find serenity,
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea,
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair,
But let me be what I know best,
A friend who's always there
Thank you for all your support
Love always Elaine

hugs
When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.
If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.
If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.
If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.
If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.
So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.
Love and hugs elaine xxxxxxxxxx
I've listened to the footprints poem
a million times or more
of how when only one set shows
upon the sandy shore
it's the lord carrying us
and taking on our load
and his are the only set
of footprints that showed
But what if when we look
there are no footprints to be found?
all we see is plain and simple
sand upon the ground
no imprints showing that our lord
is carrying us through life
helping us when we feel
we can not handle all this strife
Where is my lord now that i've fallen
and can't seem to get back up?
so tired and lonely
trying to deal with what seems
an overflowing cup
where are those footprints
in the sand
to tell me he's right there?
helping me with problems
and showing that he really does care
Does he have favourites, OH NO
please tell me that's not so
but why does life seem easier
for some people that I know?
and sometimes I just scream out loud
although it seems in vain
but often gets harder each day
to deal with all this pain
And then it dawned on me
as I realize how simple could it be
I wonder why I was so blind
that I truly did not see
it must have been a lightening bolt
that one day gave me light
because out of the clear blue sky
I finally regained my sight
I saw a fluffy white cloud
shaped like an angel dear
that helped me to understand
and see things oh so clear
that's when I saw no footprints
and so often wondered why
my lord carried me on angel wings
when he decided to fly.

Friends are like Angels
Friends are like Angels
Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.
Their thoughtfulness comes,
As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.
Like upside-down rainbows,
Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun.
Friends are like angels,
Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious things.

CANDLE OF LOVE
·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:·
Few people come into our lives
and make everything shine,
but you're one of those
rare and splendid jewels
who makes the whole world bright.
When I was sad, you made me smile.
When I was alone and blue,
you were there for me,
and you made me feel strong enough
to accomplish anything.
Because I appreciate
the many things you do,
more than words could say,
I'm sending you the Candle of Love,
and hoping you receive
many blessings from above.
·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:··: *:· ·:*:· ·:*:· ·:*:··:*:··:*:·
Please send the candle of love
to someone who has touched your life,
and keep the flame of love burning bright.
