This eulogy is in memory of John Atkinson
who left us on the 4th December 2006 aged 54 years
The most loving, funny, kind and considerate man we have ever known
A man who simply lived for his family.
OUR HERO JOHN ATKINSON X
John our beloved dad, was snatched away from us so cruely and so suddenly on the morning of december the fourth whilst out working. He left behind his loving wife Sue, his children Claire 28 Gina 22 and John 17, his beautiful grandsons Damon 2 1/2 and Denver 3 weeks. Our hearts are broken in two since you were taken from us dad. Our lives will be a much duller place with out you. You brightened up our days you protected us and touched the hearts to all who knew you. Infact it wasn't until the day of your funeral that we saw how many lives you touched and how many people loved you .We know you know how much we all love you we used to tell you every day. We long to pick the phone and hear your gentle voice or hear your car pull up the drive and see your loving face even for just a split second.You have made us the people we are today and we are so very proud to have you as our dad, husband and grandad and of course a dear friend. We take comfort in knowing you are happy where you are and that you are watching over us and that one day whenever it will be we will all be reunited once more.
We all love you with all of our hearts and you will be in our minds every day.
We miss you so much and yearn for your cuddles, kisses and silly jokes.
You were everything to us you were the link to keep us all together, dad, you were quite simply Our Hero
Rest In peace in your fields of gold.
Until we meet again xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My Memory Library
Imagine if I was given one moment,
just a single slice of my past.
I could hold it close forever,
and that moment would always last.
I'd put the moment in a safe,
within my hearts abode.
I could open it when I wanted,
and only I would know the code.
I could choose a time of laughing,
a time of happiness and fun.
I could choose a time that tried me,
through everything I've done.
I sat and thought about what moment,
would always make me smile.
One that would always push me,
to walk that extra mile.
If I'm feeling sad and low,
if I'm struggling with what to do.
I can go and open my little safe,
and watch my moment through.
There are moments I can think of,
that would lift my spirits everytime.
The moments when you picked me up,
when the road was hard to climb.
For me to only pick one moment,
to cherish, save and keep,
Is proving really difficult,
as I've gathered up a heap!
I've dug deep inside my heart,
found the safe and looked inside,
there was room for lots of moments,
in fact hundreds if I tried.
I'm building my own little library,
embedded in my heart,
for all the moments spent with you,
before you had to part.
I can open it up whenever I like,
pick a moment and watch it through,
My little library acts as a promise,
I'll never ever forget you

DAD xxx
Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too.
I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name.
All I have are memories and a picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart.
Always and forever
Lov ya dad
From ur big baby, Claire xxx
