(CHUCK)
Born 6th March 1952 Died 13th March 2007 age 55.

A dear partner, dad, grandad, son, brother, uncle and friend. Whenever anyone needed anything you were always there, nothing was ever too much trouble. You lived your life around family, friends and fishing. Anything the grandkids wanted they would usually get, you spoilt them rotten and loved every minute of it. Christmas and birthdays will never be the same without you there to entertain the kids. They loved playing games with you and spending time with you in general. Pantomines, days out at the seaside, visits to the cinema- these are just some of the things the kids loved to do with you.
For us you have always been there to lend a hand whether it meant picking the kids up from school, babysitting when they were ill, fetching things in your van or just advice. I have several completed projects in my house that you helped (very patiently) with. Every time we attempt a project now, we can hear your voice as we try to decide the best approach. Sometimes I imagine I can hear you laughing as we attempt something for the third, fourth, fifth time. I know you got the most out of your life because I can't ever remember seeing you without a smile. When I think of all the things I know you still wanted to do in your lifetime I feel sad. Hopefully we will be able to keep most of your traditions going, and fulfill some of your dreams for you. We will certainly try. Always loved. In our hearts forever xxx.

You were taken from us without any of us getting the opportunity to say goodbye. For this I will always feel regret. My only comfort is that you never knew your time was up and you lived your life to the full. Sometimes I think about all the things I would have liked to have said to you, knowing that I will never get that chance really hurts . I think about all the times when I will really miss your presence, especially when we visit your house and everything is still the same but without you. This is when I realise what a big part of my life you really were and what a big hole has been left . You were the kindest and funniest man and hopefully in time I will be able to remember you in this way instead of the terrible sadness and pain I feel now. I imagine you sat in heaven now with your fishing rod in your hand. You are my dad and I am your daughter, for this I will be eternally grateful. I owe you so much.
God bless, sweet dreams xxx


My Precious Dad

I Wish I Could See You One More Time
Come Walking Through My Door
But, I Know That Is Impossible
I Will Hear Your Voice No More
I Know You Can Feel My Tears
And You Don’t Want Me To Cry
Yet, My Heart Is Broken
Because I Can’t Understand Why
Someone So Precious Had To Die
I Pray That God Will Give Me Strength
And Somehow Get Me Through
As I Struggle With This Heartache
That Was Caused By Losing You

In Precious Memory Of Chuck
Who Walked Through Heaven's Gate

♥ Behind ♥ Your ♥ Wings ♥

♥X♥
Like a veil being drawn across my heart
With your love buried deep inside
When troubled times are about to start
Behind your wings I hide
♥X♥
When temptation comes and I know it must
To reveal what's hidden inside
I call to the only one I trust
And behind your wings I hide
♥X♥
When night-time creeps upon the day
And there's no-one by my side
I close my eyes and with my spirit I pray
It's behind your wings I hide
♥X♥
Like a veil being drawn across my heart
To heal the wounds deep inside
Your love fills my being in every part
And on your wings I glide.

being to timelessness as it's to time ღ♥ღ

being to timelessness as it's to time,
love did no more begin than love will end:
where nothing is to breathe to stroll to swim
love is the air the ocean and the land
❦
love is the voice under all silences,
the hope which has no opposite in fear:
the strength so strong mere force is feebleness:
the truth more first than sun, more last than star.

Outside the house beside the driveway is an evergreen,
And two or three times every year a miracle is seen.
A single red rose starts to bud and blossom to full bloom,
In the center of the evergreen facing my room.

Surrounded by the greenery it glows a brilliant red,
A single red rose blooming where no other makes it's bed.
Each time it happens and I see it I just stop and stare,
And wonder with this evergreen how did the rose get there.

I always stand amazed when I am pondering this view,
It always brings back memories of someone that I once knew.
The evergreen reminds me of the people I have known,
But one stands out just like this rose that blooms there all alone.

The evergreen is beautiful like people I have met,
The rose reminds me of someone I never will forget.
The evergreen surrounds the rose with all it's greenery,
But the beauty of the precious rose is all that you can see.

It touches all your senses when the rose is blooming there,
It makes you stop and notice all the plant life everywhere.
Floral you would never see or pay attention to,
Unless the beauty of the rose had it's effect on you.

Sometimes things in life will bring the focus into view,
And make you notice everything as if it were brand new.
It makes you stop and be aware of all the little things,
You notice flowers as they bloom and watch a bird that sings.

He was such a person that this rose reminds me of,
Filled to overflowing with his gentleness and love.
Always with an attitude of being positive,
Never wanting for himself he only knew to give.

He never let the world around him change his attitude,
Like the single red rose blooming in it's solitude.
He knew his mind and heart and nothing could stand in his way,
Just like the single brilliant rose that's blooming here today.

Many times his actions would bring questions from a peer,
Just the way you wonder why the rose is growing here.
But in the end you always knew he'd blossom on the scene,
The same way that this single rose did with the evergreen.

Some people slip into your life so quietly they came,
And just the fact they touched your life, it never is the same.
He touched so many people's lives the way that he touched mine,
He was that rose so beautiful and I part of the pine.

Death is at once
The end of the body’s
Old journey
And the beginning of the soul’s
New journey.

To Myself

Even when I forget you
I go on looking for you
I believe I would know you
I keep remembering you
sometimes long ago but then
other times I am sure you
were here a moment before
and the air is still alive
around where you were and I
think then I can recognize
you who are always the same
who pretend to be time but
you are not time and who speak
in the words but you are not
what they say you who are not
lost when I do not find you

~ Why Walk When You Can Fly ~

In this world you've a soul for a compass
And a heart for a pair of wings
There's a star on the far horizon
Rising bright in an azure sky
For the rest of the time that you're given
Why walk when you can fly?

~ Mary Chapin Carpenter

~ Life ~

By one great Heart the Universe is stirred:
By Its strong pulse, stars climb the darkening blue;
It throbs in each fresh sunset’s changing hue,
And thrills through low sweet song of every bird:

By It, the plunging blood reds all men’s veins;
Joy feels that heart against his rapturous own,
And on It, Sorrow breathes her sharpest groan;
It bounds through gladnesses and deepest pains.

Passionless beating through all Time and Space,
Relentless, calm, majestic in Its march,
Alike, though Nature shake heaven's endless arch,
Or mans heart break, because of some dead face!

’Tis felt in sunshine greening the soft sod,
In children’s smiling, as in mothers tears;
And, for strange comfort, through the aching years,
Men’s hungry souls have named that great Heart, God!

~ Margaret Deland

With what a deep devotedness of woe
I wept thy absence - o'er and o'er again
Thinking of thee, still thee, till thought grew pain,
And memory, like a drop that, night and day,
Falls cold and ceaseless, wore my heart away!

~Thomas Moore

If you have found a smile,
That is the sweetest one you’ve known.
If you have heard within a voice,
The echo’s of your own.

If you have felt a touch,
That stirs the longings of your heart,
And still can feel that closeness,
In the moments you’re apart.

If you have filled with wonder,
At the way two lives can blend.
To weave a perfect pattern
That is seamless, end to end.

If you believe some things in life
Are simply meant to be
Then you have found your soul mate
Your hearts own destiny.

Until We're Together Again

══ೋღ♥

Some believe
A star shining brightly in the heavens
Represents the love of someone they can't see
Others feel
The butterfly dancing in their garden
Is a symbol of a spirit flying free

══ೋღ♥

But when a gentle breeze caresses your hair
Or you see an eagle soar in the air
Should you smile and remember me in prayer
Oh, I will be there

══ೋღ♥

There's no need to say good-bye
One day we'll be together
Remember me and smile
I'm in your heart forever
I'll feel the love you send
Until we're together again

══ೋღ♥

Close your eyes
You'll find me sailing in the sunset
Riding waves of bluest oceans ever seen
Holding hands
Of all the others here before me
My head upheld to hear the angels sing

══ೋღ♥

I can do all the things I've always dreamed of
I'll be watching over you from above
Don't worry about me because
I brought along all your love

══ೋღ♥


There's no need to say good-bye
One day we'll be together
Remember me and smile
I'm in your heart forever
I'll feel the love you send
Until we're together again

══ೋღ♥


It doesn't matter where you are
My love will shine upon you from that star
Like the butterfly, now I'm free
Ascending through the sky peacefully

══ೋღ♥

There's no need to say good-bye
One day we'll be together
Remember me and smile
I'm in your heart forever
I'll feel the love you send
All the love you send
And you hold on to the love I send
Until we're together again

══ೋღ♥

We'll be together again?

β˜œβ™‘β˜ž The Wings That Fly Us Home β˜œβ™‘β˜ž

There are many ways of being in this circle we call life
A wise man seeks an answer, burns his candle through the night
Is a jewel just a pebble that found a way to shine
Is a hero’s blood more righteous than a hobo’s sip of wine
β˜€
Did I speak to you one morning on some distant world away
Did you save me from an arrow, did you lay me in a grave
Were we brothers on a journey, did you teach me how to run
Were we broken by the waters, did I lie you in the sun
β˜€
I dreamed you were a prophet in a meadow
I dreamed I was a mountain in the wind
I dreamed you knelt and touched me with a flower
I awoke with this: a flower in my hand
β˜€
I know that love is seeing all the infinite in one
In the brotherhood of creatures; who the father, who the son
The vision of your goodness will sustain me through the cold
Take my hand now to remember when you find yourself alone
β˜€
And the spirit fills the darkness of the heavens
It fills the endless yearning of the soul
It lives within a star too far to dream of
It lives within each part and is the whole
β˜€
It’s the fire and the wings that fly us home
Fly us home, fly us home.

~ Words by Joe Henry, music by John Denver
