The first time I met Debbie was near christmas years ago, I'd just started a new job with Sure Start in Corby and we all sat down for a pre Christmas meal. I didn't like Debbie at first, ha my god how things change. I thought she was too loud and I suppose I was slightly intimidated by her. I wasn't wrong tho, Debbie was loud, it was strange for me to meet someone who was louder than me. She made the most of everything. I didn't know she had already had a battle with cancer and over come it. Maybe this was why she was so loud and always laughing, she was alive!!
As I got to know Debbie I realised what a lovely person she was, she would do anything for anyone (as long as you was on the right side of her) and she had the most fantastic personality. She would always walk in a room with some sort of comment that would make us all laugh (smiling as i'm typing this) she would never make a quiet entry or leave a room without making a remark to make us laugh before the door slammed behind her.
Debbie was the kind of person you wanted to be around, she was fun, caring and outgoing. She had a massive impact on my life and to be honest I can't tell you why, I just know that she was special and you don't meet people like her everyday. When I hear certain songs I think of her, when I see a rainbow (to me) it's Debbie. I recently had a tattoo on my wrist of a lily, it represents Debbie to me. It's there to remind me that when things are getting on top of me I need to fight, just like Debbie did. Be a stronger person and always remember things could be worse. I'm sure if she could Debbie would be saying those things to me.
I won't go into all of my memories of Debbie and our conversations, I don't need to. Anyone who knew her will have special memories of their own.

Debbie, you were and are an inspiration to me. You'll always be in my heart!!

Love Laura Jay (Betty as you'd call me) xxxx

sisters

Sisters are a gift from God
Sisters are your best friends
Sisters stay by your side
When the road twists & bends

Sisters never let you down
They always lend a hand
Sisters are the best example of
leaving footprints in the sand

Sisters always love each other
There love never goes away
Instead it grows & grows
Stronger everyday

Sisters may fight sometimes
But they always stay together
No matter where ur sister goes
She'll be in ur heart forever ♥

Her eyes were dim and glassy as she gazed into the sky,
She knew she was getting weaker, she knew that she would die.
The Lord wrapped his arms around her and took her by the hand,
He said "Come with Me, my darling, to God's Eternal land.
The years have passed so quickly and still we miss you so,
There are times we can hardly wait til it's our time to go.
We know God picks the time and place to take our loved hones home,
But it is so hard to accept the loss when it is one of your very own.
We know others have lost their loved ones, and this we can't explain
And we know it must break God's heart to see his children in such pain.
We cannot judge what happens when tears and questions start,
We only see what is visible, but God sees into the heart.

The last night that we spent with you, you were so weak you could not speak.
Your dreams didn't get accomplished, you didn't get to raise your kids,
But you left a lasting impression on all you said and did.
You are now our special angel, your are still a special part of our family, you just don't live with us anymore.

Our smiles try to hide our heartaches and we say we are doing fine,
But to those who have experienced death know how it changes you in time.
Every day we are reminded of the good things that you did,
You cared so much for others, especially unfortunate kids.Christmas dinners aren't as lucious as they used to be,
You had that extra little touch to make them special, you see.
The advice and help you gave the kids, you knew just what to say,
And they knew they better listen when you told them to obey.
To some you are forgotten, to others just a dream,
But to us who love and miss you those memories ripple like a stream.
God looked around his garden and saw an empty space,
He then took a look around the earth and saw your suffering face.
He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest,
God's garden must be beautiful, cause He only takes the best.

You tried your best to teach us before you went away,
We now have a better understanding of what you tried to say.
Please always know we love you and no one can take your place,
Tho' many years can come and go your memory will never be erased.
So when each day starts without you, we won't seem so far apart,
Cuz every time we think of you, you will be right here in our heart.
So Jesus if you are listening in your home from up above,
Would you kiss my wee sis Debbie and give her all my love.

missing you always wee sis


6yrs ago today, is the day
you went away,
Why you had to leave us,
will never feel quite right,
I think about you all the time,
Every morning, noon and night,
Life without you here,
Well... it just is not the same,
And all our loss, and all our pain,
Is most certainly Heaven's gain,
love and miss you more than words
can say wee sis rest in peace hen.

Wish Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you 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 from which I'll never part.... God has you...in his arms. Ihave you in my heart. love and miss u more than words can say wee sis
