Poem
A shining light has now been dimmed
A voice we loved is stilled
The chair where you sat, now empty
Is a place that can never be filled

A golden heart has stopped beating
So loving, so pure, so kind
But her memory will live on forever
In the legacy that she left behind

For so many years she has reigned 
Our mum, our Nan, our queen
Famous for many wonderful things
Especially her delicious cuisine 

Her butterfly cakes, her lemon meringue
 And oh that wonderful trifle
Her tasty egg and bacon pie
Her cooking was so delightful

Christmas parties, dressing up
Her pagan perfume she sprayed
A good old east ender a sing-along
A cinzano and lemonade

She filled our lives with sunshine
Her smile would light up the room
Her charm, her glow, her infectious laugh
Would cure any doom and gloom 

We all know she loved a party
And Chas and Dave would be there
The joy we would feel just to watch her
Sing along without a care

So many years of memories  
Tales that will never grow old
The head of our family, the love of our lives
She’s a wonder to behold

The unconditional love she gave
Her affection knew no bounds 
With endless kisses and cuddles
Our queen of love she was crowned 

Her love, her strength, her courage
Her selfless caring way
Her wisdom through the years
Has made us who we are today

Always there for each of us
With pride she watched us grow
She guided and she taught us 
Almost everything we know

 
The essence of everything beautiful
Our Angel in disguise
And now she watches over us
From high up in the sky

God knew she was special
So He gave us her on loan
But when He knew she needed Him
He came to take her home

We would give our all
To have her back for one more day
An hour or a minute
For these words we need to say..

“You were our greatest treasure Nan
Our world, our heart, our soul
You made our lives worthwhile
We love you more than you could know

Our tears could fill an ocean
Our fragile hearts won’t mend
Not only did we lose our Nan
We all lost our best friend

Always we will miss the Nan 
We never can replace
But, our memories are something
Even time cannot erase

And when grief becomes too much 
We know you’ll keep us strong
We’ll know you’re by our side  
Because in us...you will live on
