Thanks Karen mum of our gorgeous Adam for the beautiful pic i'm using xxxx
Our mum Margaret Connolly died on Mothers Day the 26th of March 2006 aged 62. She was an office
clerk in St. Fergus Primary School for 32 years and lived across from the school in Blackstoun Rd.
My mum loved her job and the people she worked with. Anne her good friend shared the office with her
and they had many great times and laughs together, their favourite sources of conversation were
Anne's mum and our dad, these two caused hysteria with their antics, Anne and my mum exchanged
stories regarding these two on a daily basis. Thank you Anne for all your love and support. xxx
My mum had 2 brothers Thomas R.I.P. and Joe, my beautiful precious uncle Joe died 8 weeks after her
:-( I thank him for all his love and support he gave me after her death and will always cherish
that afternoon we spent together, he is a very special man, I love him dearly as did my mum xx. My
mum also has 2 sisters Eileen and Cathy. My mum is aunt to Veronica, Frances, Neil, Christine,
Steven, Tricia, Charlie, Michelle, Mike, Patrick, Sean, Katie, Lesley, Steven, Paul and Karen, great
aunt to Darren, Michele, Nicole, Gemma, Natalie, Liam, Sam, Hollie, Blair, Hannah and Sophie and
great great aunt to Max and Rufus and a very special sister in law to our aunt Margaret xxx Our mum
prayed for them all especially our wee Michele who is an absolute treasure xxx
Theres myself and my elder brother Thomas, my son Kieran and Thomas's son Matthew, she was so proud
of her grandsons and talked about them constantly always telling everyone how wonderful and special
they were. Our mum died very suddenly, I am sure she knew and protected myself and Kieran that
morning for what she was going to face I will never ever forget that morning and the pain we all
endured. The hardest thing for me to deal with is I will never know if she shouted on me to help
her, I tried when I found her but it was too late. I thank God for Joanie that morning my own
special guardian angel.
My mum is the most wonderful mum and friend myself and my brother could have wished for, her love
unconditional, she gave us her all and never asked for anything in return. Her support for both of
us was amazing she must have despaired at times but she kept on going. My mum had a tremendous faith
and prayed for everybody especially all those children in Ferguslie who she held close to her heart.
Words can never explain how much she meant to us and the huge void she has left in our lives which
can never be replaced. We will always remember her vibrant spirit and her love of life and people
xx
I need to also acknowledge her 'other wee family' who affectionally called her maw or Mrs C she
loved and cared for them as if they were her own.
Alan, Lucille, Christopher, Sean, Laura, Anthony and wee Megan Docherty.
There were many people close to our mum especially Suzie, Anne, Annmarie, Angie, Caroline, Grace and
Maureen who genuinely cared about her and showed concern for her health in the weeks leading up to
her death, we thank you all for making a difference in our mums life. Can't forget Lorraine and wee
Helen for all the help and support they gave our mum when events needed to be organised in the
school, they were always there. xx A special thanks to Fr. Vincent for being there and for his love
and support, and for getting the statue of St. John Bosco placed in the church in memory of our mum
xx
Finally to all those children in St. Fergus Primary School you were the reason for our mum going to
work every day. Amanda and Ashley you brightened up Mrs Connolly's life and made her laugh with your
antics, she talked about you all the time, she loved both of you and I know she'll be looking down
on you and saying what are you two all about just like she always said. xxx
REMEMBERING MY GRANDPARENT'S JANET CONNOLLY, TOMMY AND MAGGIE HARKINS AND MY UNCLE MATTHEW FARMER
XXXXX
Also remembering Mary Clark an inspiration to all who had the honour of being part of her life xxx
Her son James, daughter May and her son-in-law Joe may they all rest in peace xxx
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR LIGHTING CANDLES AND LEAVING TRIBUTES I KNOW MY MUM'S MEMORY WILL ALWAYS BE
ALIVE XXX
*★* OUR LIPS CANNOT TELL HOW WE MISS YOU ★ OUR HEARTS CANNOT TELL WHAT TO SAY ★ GOD ALONE
KNOWS HOW WE MISS YOU ★ IN A HOME THAT IS LONESOME TODAY AND ALWAYS *★*
·:*:· ♥ ·:*:· Lord in heaven hear my prayer, look after our Angel with loving care, Be a good
shepherd, dont leave her alone, love her like we did when our mum was here at home·:*:
♥♥♥ You will always be in my heart and I look forward to the day we unite, and how glorious
that day will be! I will continue to pray to dream of you always. I love you with every bit of my
heart ♥♥♥
Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear
Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above
Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen
As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'cause you are mine
Forever love
Watching me from up above
And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave
Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
If tomorrow starts without me,
And I’m not there to see.
If the sun should rise, and find your eyes,
Are filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry,
The way you did today.
While thinking of the many things, we didn’t get to say.
I know how much you loved me,
As much as I love you.
And every time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me,
I hope you’ll understand,
An angel came and called my name and took me by the hand.
She said my place was ready, in heaven up above,
And that I’d have to leave behind, all those I dearly love.
I had so much to live for, so much that I should do,
It seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you.
I wish I could have said goodbye,
And kissed and seen you smile,
I wish I could have stayed with you even for a little while.
But then I had to realise, that this could never be,
Now emptiness, and memories,
Would take the place of me.
But when I walked through heavens gates,
I felt so much at home,
And then the lord looked down on me, from his golden throne.
He said, “this is for eternity, but I will promise you,
Although your life on earth has passed, here life starts anew”
“I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last,
And since each days the same up here,
There’s no longing for the past”
My loved ones, please don’t grieve for me,
Coz I am truly free,
And I will wait for you to come and share my life with me.
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don’t think we’re far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I’m right here in your heart .............
♥♥♥A Beloved Mother And Very Best friend♥♥♥
Dearest of all people, with a love that knows no end.
A playmate to her Children's Children,
She's both Grandma and a Friend.
Full of Childhood memories at the park and beach,
So fond and true all within our minds reach.
Blessed with beauty and an innocent heart,
She is Fairest of God's most exquisite art.
A Daughter, a Sister, a Wife and a Mom,
The Bride of Christ she has now become.
Her purpose fulfilled, and Her Legacy Left,
Again we will see her, and be no longer bereft.

MY DARLING MOTHER..........
HOW MUCH I MISS YOU NO-ONE WILL EVER REALLY KNOW
MY DARLING MOTHER WHY WERE YOU THE ONE WHO HAD TO GO
NOTHING SEEMS RIGHT WITHOUT YOU HERE TO HOLD ME TIGHT
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE IT THOUGH EACH AND EVERY NIGHT
OTHERS SAY I STILL HAVE FAMILY OF MY OWN TO LOOK AFTER NOW
EVEN THOUGH I STILL STRUGGLE THOUGH EACH DAY THE ONLY WAY I KNOW HOW
I DO NOT LET ANYONE SEE ALL THE TEARS THAT I CRY FOR YOU
I AM FINDING MY LIFE SO HARD LIVING WITHOUT YOU TOO
EACH DAY BRINGS ME TO CLOSER TO CHRISTMAS WITH YOU BY MY SIDE
I TRY SO HARD NOW MY TEARS FLOW I CANNOT HIDE
I LOVE YOU WITH EVERY BEAT OF MY BROKEN HEART
MY DARLING MOTHER WHY ARE WE LIVING TWO WORLDS APART.......

Tributes For Week Starting 16th November
FOR MONDAY
Sadly missed along life's way,
Quietly remembered every day,
No longer in our life to share,
But in our hearts you’re always there.
FOR TUESDAY
I sit and wonder every day,
Why the Lord chose to call you away,
I think He saw you needed rest,
He only takes the very best.
FOR WEDNESDAY
Everyday in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are always near,
Still missed, loved, always dear.
FOR THURSDAY
Resting where no shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep he awaits us all;
God will link the broken chain,
When one by one we meet again.
FOR FRIDAY
Surrounded by friends
Yet all alone
The one I loved
God has called home
The hugs of friends
Helps ease the pain
And I know my loss
Is my loved one's gain
But tears now flow
Across my face
As I long for just
One more embrace
Then comfort comes
And I see Christ's face
He hugs my loved one
And I feel God's grace.
FOR SATURDAY
Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears...
It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.
My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know..
.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.
FOR SUNDAY
When I come to the end of the day
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love we once shared,
Miss me but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the maker's plan,
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds -
Miss me, but let me go.

when our spirits need a lift.

for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.

a better and happier place.

Tributes For Week Starting 9th November
FOR MONDAY
Your presence I miss,
Your memory I treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
FOR TUESDAY
Loving you is easy,
We do it every day,
Missing you is a heartache,
That never goes away.
FOR WEDNESDAY
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.
FOR THURSDAY
Memory is a lovely lane,
Where hearts are ever true,
A lane I so often travel down,
Because it leads to you.
FOR FRIDAY
Wings Of The Angels
A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a mother's name.
Left behind, the children's tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God a mother's sent.
On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn.
FOR SATURDAY
If I Had One Last Day
If I had one last day
To tell you what's inside
I'd tell you that I'm sorry
For all the times I've lied
I'd tell you that I need you
To hold my hand today
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd ask you, please, to stay
You'd look at me and smile
The way you always would
And say "I'd love to stay,
If only I really could"
Then you'd laugh the way you did
Whenever I was blue
You'd wipe my tears and whisper softly,
"Don't cry, I love you too"
If I had one last day
I'd love you from the start
I'd stop hiding how I feel
I'd say what's in my heart
If I had one last day,
I'd say my last good-bye
And that even though you are far away,
In my heart, you'll never die.
FOR SUNDAY
Cry Not My Friend
When you wake up tomorrow
And I am no where to be found
When you scream out my name
To the emptiness around
When every beat inside your heart
Is skipping and unsure
Cry not my friend for I am here,
Inside your love so pure
When the waves that used to touch our feet
Have gone back out to sea
When everything you once held dear
Was lost when you lost me
When the sun that once lit up your face
Is setting far away
Cry not my Friend for time shall pass,
But my love for you will stay
When age arrives and children play
And pain creeps up on you
When loved ones show you happiness
That your life never knew
When all of your expectations are met,
No matter what the pain
Cry not my friend, for I am waiting
To hold you once again
When beauty in your eyes turn grey
And all of the rainbow, white
When strong undying hearts
No longer feel an urge to fight
When winter snows become more pain
Than beauty in your heart
Cry not my friend, for I am here
And we will never ever part

Angels
When you were born, an angel smiled,
As you became a child, an angel sat on your shoulder
When you became an adult, an angel held your hand
As you grew old, an angel walked down the road with you,
And, when you died, another angel got their wings.
FOR SATURDAY
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.
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.
FOR SUNDAY
Reply to "Letter from Heaven"
My Dearest Loved one:
I received your Letter from Heaven,
It made the teardrops fall.
But knowing you’re with God above,
Sweet memories, I will recall.
I know that you are with me,
For I feel your presence near.
And if I listen closely,
Your voice I then can hear.
I know you’re watching o’er me,
As you promised you would do.
And when I feel so saddened,
It’s your letter that sees me through.
When I lay in bed at night,
The day’s chores put to flight,
I truly feel your presence,
Like a warm and glowing light.
The rocky roads you mentioned,
And the hills that I must climb;
I’ve done exactly what you said,
By taking one day at a time.
I’ve tried to help others,
Who are in sorrow and in pain.
And now I am contented,
My day was not in vain.
I’ll lend a hand, as you have said
When someone is feeling low.
I’ll pray for them and be here,
‘Till on their way they go.
And when it’s time for me to go,
To join you in heaven high.
My wings I shall spread wide,
To my home up in the sky.
