Philippa jenna Townsend, Born 13th May 1969 gone 31st January 2000
My darling daughter Philippa bought sunshine into so many lives, always cheery always with a ready
smile, happy to help others and a great carer, loved her husband col and her three children colin
adam and amey more than anything else, a wonderful mum wife and a super sister and the best daughter
I could have ever wished for.
She bravely went through all her treatments many times to no avail but never gave up, if I had a
little of her courage I would be a better person. Sleep soundly and peacefully with all the other
angels.
And for anyone that visits this site I thank you for caring and not letting my daughter Philippa be
forgotten, please carry on lighting candles and leaving messages thank you to all on this gts site.
fran

moment, and cant cope with it

for philippas children xxx

My mommy paints me rainbows,
The sunshine is her smile,
She sits upon white fluffy clouds,
To watch me all the while.
The raindrops on my nose she sends,
To let me know she cares.
And that she will always love me,
And forever will be there.
She visits me most every night,
To kiss me in my dreams,
And gently holds me in my sleep,
And then how close she seems,
Thats how I know shes never gone ,
And theres no need to cry,
For while she lives on in my heart ,
She will never ever die.

Fallen Wishes xx

I could fill a thousand pages telling you how I felt and still you would not understand.
So now I leave you without a sound except my heart shattering as it hits the ground.

If a tear fell from my eyes, every time I wished you were with me,
I would have a puddle of fallen wishes at my feet.

If you love someone more than anything,
Then distance only matters to the mind, not to the heart.

A mothers grief

She carries such a heavy heart,
her tears will often flow,
Seems everyones avoiding her,
seems no-one wants to know !
Her grief she carries all alone,
nobody seems to care,
Or help her ease this burden,
this burden she must bear,
Her Child has just left her,
but where, where did she go ?
Why did she have to leave so soon,
and will she ever know ?
A mothers grief's a lonley path,
she only wants her child,
For others understanding, thier love
if only mild.
To talk of her lost child,
acknowledge her real pain,
to tell her life will soon be bright
she'll see her child again.
For she has gone up to heaven,
an angel up above.
Where theres no tears or dying,
with great eternal love.
Try understanding this mothers grief,
praise, God it was not you,
That lost your precious, wanted child,
for she was wanted to.

WHY

Tell me, why is it like when the
bottom falls out of your world ?
When life ceases to have any meaning
and your future is no more.
When your heart breaks in two
and there seems no reason to go on,
How do you find motivation for tomorow ?

Perhaps there is no answer
And you ask 'why does God permit such tragedies ?
You live your life as best you can,
You help others along the way
and yet,
You are rewarded with such pain,

How do you face another day,
when half of your life is no longer,
Do you give up and walk away,
with happiness a distant place ?

Or do you leave the door of your heart ajar
So that healing will enter and life reborn

For God comes to those that weep,
It is he who will get you through.

For Amey ♥ღ♥ Happy Birthday ♥ღ♥

Look up into the clouds; see the yellow stars in the sky.
Think of me, your Mum, your angel, in Heaven way up high.
Just imagine those stars are dandelions up above;
Yes! Dandelions are in Heaven, which I’ve learned to love.

So on those sunny mornings when you wake up and feel blue;
You will notice that those yellow stars are no longer there in view.
Just look unto the meadows and the dandelions you’ll see,
They’re ones that I've tossed down to you, this lovely day, from me!

And when you find a dandelion that has turned from yellow to white,
You're supposed to make a wish; and then blow with all your might.
For you will be blowing kisses to me in Heaven above;
And I’ll be catching them, blowing them back, sent with all my love.

Please know that I am with you on this and every day;
And in the weeks and years ahead I will never, ever, stray.
I’ll be with you in the morning when you wake and see the sun;
I’ll be with you when you fall asleep just when day is done.

I will never, never be…very far from your side;
As now I can be everywhere; I shall be your guide.
So…remember when you see dandelions; it’s your lifetime guarantee.
I am always right up close to you, because the dandelions and I are free!

the broken chain

Little did we know that morning
God was going to call your name
in life we loved you dearly
in death we do the same,

It broke our hearts to lose you
but you did not go alone
for part of us went with you
the day God called your name,

You left us peacefull memories
your life is still our guide
and though we cannot see you
you are always by our side,

Our Family Chain its broken
and nothing seems the same
but as God calls us one by one
the chain will Link again.

thinking of you always mum

A Life Lost

I have lost a life - not my own.
But it would have been easier
to have lost my own life
than to have lost
the life I loved more than my own.
