JOHN MURPHY
Husband to : Nora Murphy
Father to: John, Ann, Marie and Carol
Hi everyone, This is my grandad John. He was more like a father to us than a grandad. He took me and my brother on our first holiday to Spain when we were kids. He was well known in Dublin in his day, everyone called him BIG JOHN beacuse he was very tall and very strong, and he used to work on the doors of pubs in Dublin.
When my grandad was younger he was a brilliant boxer. He boxed for St Savours in Sandymount. He even went to Germany to represent Ireland. From as far back as I can remember my grandad always had dogs. He used to bread German Shepards and enter them in competitions. He was very involved in the IKC (Irish Kennel Club)
On the 15th of March 1993 my grandad Sadly passed away in work. Only hours before he had rang my nana as he did every night. My grandad was a Gentle Giant. Just like my brother John, and now they are together in Heaven god bless u both. forever in our thoughts , hearts and prayers xxxx

As Christmas time approaches
We miss you more and more
Memories of past Yule times
We always will adore
We still hang the decorations
Put the lights upon the tree
We hang the cards upon the wall
This one's for you, you see
Even though you are not here
You're always in our hearts
So we remember you this Christmas
While we're temporarily apart.

Do you think?.............
Do you think that I am over it
Better than before
Maybe I've forgotten
Doesn't hurt me anymore?
♥
Do you think that I am doing fine
No tears are shed each day
Get up and just get going
Pain has all but gone away?
♥
Do you think that I am coping
Living life just as you do
If that's what you imagine...
You don't have a single clue.
♥
I cope, I cry, and I deny
I've learned how I must hide
Keep everything within me
Bottled up deep down inside.
♥
I can't be who I was before
I've changed I'm someone new
It happens when you have a loss
You would be different too.
♥
I'm so misunderstood each day
To tired to explain
Not over it, or better
Simply put... I'm not the same.
♥
And will never be because you left me.

Lots of love From Fiona and Family xXxX
The sun still rises in the east
and darkness falls at night
but nothing now quite seems the same
each day is not as bright...
The birds will sing, the flowers grow,
the breeze still whispers too,
but it will never ever be,
the same world without you...
It’s so sad that you had to go
your leaving caused such pain
but you were very special
and earth’s loss is Heavens gain...
May God grant you always...
A sunbeam to warm you,
A moonbeam to charm you,
A sheltering Angel so nothing can harm you.
Laughter to cheer you.
Faithful friends near you.
And whenever you pray... Heaven to hear you.
Happy Halloween

LIFE & FRIENDS
Life is a journey,
a journey that takes us down many roads.
Some good and some not so good.
But as we travel we learn,grow, and meet
people that make those journies all worth the travel.
Those kind of people in a way are like
Angels.
With them we find comfort in the arms of our
Angels.
Friends come and go,
and from each one we learn more aboout our selves.
We see our weakness are strengths
from the eyes of another.
But the ones that stay and inprint our hearts are the ones we keep close and safe within,
like an Angel.
And there we find comfort in the arms of our
Angels.
So I write this message with love and thanks.
For you have touched my life,
watched me fall,
and you raised me up like an
Angel
sent from God.
And that is where I always found my comfort.
In the arms of my Angel,
and her name is comfort.
to my special gts friend
i would like to thank you for being my shoulder
and helping me over the last 3 weeks you have been such a comfort xxxxxxx Amanda
May the angels keep you till morning.
May they guide you through the night.
May they comfort all your sorrows.
May they help you win the fight...
May they keep watch on your soul.
May they show you better ways.
May they guard you while you're sleeping.
May they see you through your days...
May they show you new hopes.
May they still your every doubt.
May they calm your every fear.
May they hear you when you shout...
May the angels keep you till morning.
More than this I cannot pray.
And if the angels ever fail you,
Then may God be there that day...
i miss you grandad xxxx
I have a picture Grandad
I'm gazing up at you,
You had been here ages
I was very new.
Your hand was very big
Mine was very small,
I was very tiny
You were very tall.
Your face was sweet and gentle
Your eyes were twinkly too
A heart so full of love
And kindness through and through.
Now I've grown and you have gone,
An Angel up above,
I'll keep you in my memories
And forever, you, I'll love
