Carol Ann Hogg Died 5th August 2006 at 18.25
Wife Mother and Grandmother.
We came back from holiday and everything was fine, we had really enjoyed the break, the next day she felt unwell and five weeks later she died from a brain tumor, The doctors said the tumor was so aggressive there was nothing they could do, She was so brave and strong throughout her short illness, and like everything else she did she put 120% into fighting her sickness, but it was just too much for her, even though she never gave up fighting. Carol died 2 days before our 33rd wedding anniversary, she still sent me a card before she died, she made me lists so I wouldn't forget the kids birthdays, she gave me a little book with all the important telephone numbers in, she made me promise to get on with life, but to keep our girls close. Right up until the end she was thinking about us, even though she was very ill herself. That was the kind of person she was, one in a million and we all love her to bits, and miss her terribly.
Every day has been difficult, I miss her so much, I tried to bury myself in work but I find myself thinking of her most of the time.
We had 4 daughters and she loved them all fiercely, she would do anything to protect them they were all close more like sisters than mother and daughters.
Goodbye Cazz you will always be in our thoughts. I love you and thank you for 34 wonderful years, your loving husband.

why?
Why why why
are you not here anymore
can't here your voice
can't see your smile
wish you could come down just for a while
to hold you close for one last time
to be with us and chat a while
to see your face thats all i need
to get your cheeks..and give them a squeeze
i miss you mum and this is true
all i can do is think of you
day or night and all in between
everyday i just want to scream
i hope your happy were ever you are
you are my one true shining star
we'll meet again sometime soon
wait for me there..right next to the moon
i love you mam with all my heart
wish we did'nt have to part
i'll say night-night and godbless too
i so much want to be with you
but until then when he calls on me i'll sit here waiting so patiently
until we meet again
love you mum xxx
a letter from heaven...I hope this poem comforts you
a letter from heaven
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
