cav_crazy Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Sorry if i have posted in the wrong place.. but this is in memory of my friends mum who passed away on the 1st May 2004 ... At the young age of 39 Anne was a loving lady who loved her 4 children undescribably... she loved everyone and filled peoples hearts with passion, love and faith... her children were aged 17, 15, 12, 10 and have all been with their mother since their parents separated and Anne has fully supported and given the proper care and love and affection that they each need... Anne was determined to battle her illness and not let it tear her away... In which she fought against right through... Unfortunately Anne died on Saturday morning at 6:00 am ... whom her eldest daughter (aged 17) heard her mother take her final 2 breaths... She had lost her battle to cancer at such a young age... Today I attended her funeral and even though it was so sad... the ceremony was beautiful... They played Annes favourite song " Did you ever know that you are my hero" in which everyone (myself included) broke down into tears.... They had magnificant poems, that Anne had wrote herself whilst battling with cancer... I will put in a poem that anne had wrote herself There's a burning pain inside of me Yearning to get out All I want to do is yell and scream and shout Why is life so unfair? What did I do wrong To deserve this kind of punishment Is simply so wrong I've always been true and kind to others This you must agree So why have you gone and done this to me I lay awake at night, my thoughts are so disturbed For I still can't figure out Is this what I deserve? I don't think it is So I'll fight this to the end So I'll see you at the pearly gates when I'm 110 - Anne Challinor 31/07/2003 RIP peace Anne... Heavan is no longer missing an angel... because you have been reclaimed Nor does it no longer have an empty place Gods Garden... God looked around his garden And found an empty place He then looked down upon the earth And saw your tired face He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest God's garden must be beautiful He always takes the best He knew that you would never get well, on earth again He saw the road was getting tough And the hills were too hard to climb So he closed your weary eyelids And whispered " Peace Be Thine" It broke our hearts to lose you But you did not go alone For part of us went with you The day he called you home. Live on forever Anne and please guide us into the right directions... I just hope im half as loving as you were to all... no matter what you felt like you never stopped caring or never stopped loving Anne, " did I ever tell you that you're my hero... for you are the wind beneath my wings" God Bless Annalise, Asha, Amber, Matt and rest of their family and help them find comfort in this tragic time... Please guide them to SHINE ON! and make the right decisions... please watch over them so that they can still be safe... Love always and forever Malinda Masters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lablover Posted May 9, 2004 Share Posted May 9, 2004 What a lovely thread. I hope your friend is at peace. It is such a cruel world we live in sometimes. The children she left are so young. I hope they are OK. Life as a single mum suffering cancer, my mind just cannot get around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
