Derek was my Step-Dad, due to walk me down the aisle when I get married.
He had been my step-Dad for 15 and a half years.
He went to T In The Park and didn't come home...I found out the day after he died and it truely broke my heart, I'll never ever forget that phone call, or the exact words.
I can't believe he's gone...I looked upto him more than anyone else in my life, because he was fantastic! He done so much for me, showed me what was right from wrong, gave me good taste in music haha!
We went to gigs together all the time, concerts, the pub, he used to come out with me and my friends if I begged him enough, lol! or if he was drunk hehe.
He will always have a massive place in my heart and I hope we'll meet again.
I love him so much and I want everyone to know that! xxxxxxx
P.S thank you to everyone who lights candles and writes tributes and leaves pictures for my Dad, it means so much to me! I can't do the pictures, lol! but I will light a candle daily in return. xxx
Angels in my Heart
When I have no one to turn to
And I am feeling kind of low
When there is no one here to talk to
And no where I really want to go
I search deep within myself
It is the love inside my heart
That lets me know my Angels are there
Even though we are many miles apart
A smile then appears upon my face
And the sun begins to shine
I hear a voice, so soft and sweet
Saying, “Everything will be just fine”
It may seem that I am alone
But I am never by myself at all
Whenever I need my Angels near
All I have to do is call
An Angel’s love is always true
On that you can always depend
They will always stand behind you
And will always be your friend love always gail & carla XxX Author unknown
ARMS OF AN ANGEL BY SARAH MCLACHLAN~~
Spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For the break that will make it ok
There's always some reason to feel �€œnot good enough�€?
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction, oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
They may be empty and weightless, and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of an Angel, fly away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here
So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference, escaping one last time
It's easier to believe
In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees
In the arms of an Angel, far away from here
From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
In the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here love always gail & carla XXX
*★ܓ Why do we feel the way we do
*★ܓ Missing our angels like the way we do
*★ܓ Some days we hurt so much inside
*★ܓ All we want is our angels by our side
*★ܓ We know our angels are having fun
*★ܓ looking down laughing at us
*★ܓ thinking we should really know
*★ܓ how much they still love us so
*★ܓ But all we want is to hold there hand
*★ܓ And tell them we want them
*★ܓ On this earthly ground
*★ܓ How we know this can never be
*★ܓ As god took our angels
*★ܓ To his heavenly land
*★ܓ Our pain and hurt is so deep
*★ܓ How will our heart ever heal
*★ܓ How we hope you can hear us
*★ܓ each day and night
*★ܓ wishing you our beautiful angels
*★ܓ★* Goodmorning *★ *★ܓ We love you oh so much & miss you so much it hurts inside love always gail & carla.XxX

ღThankyou precious Angelsღ
ღFor what you did last nightღ
ღYou knew how i was feelingღ
ღAnd every Angel shone their lightღ
ღThey made a cold and dark nightღ
ღSo warm with rays of lightღ
ღEvery colour of the rainbowღ
ღThey sparkled through the nightღ
ღThe Angels worked their magicღ
ღI felt each Angel touch my heartღ
ღGuiding me with rainbow lightsღ
ღUntil the new day startsღ

if tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane,
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again.
Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more.
To remember all the happy times,
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten,
We pledge to you today:
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll always stay
