My Auntie Mina was a real lady, she loved life & enjoyed nothing more than being surrounded by her
family. Her 6 kids, James, Donald, Ally, Helen, Jack & angela will miss her dearly. Auntie Mina, I
know you will be happy where you are as your back in the arms of your beloved husband Donnie. God
bless you & i know all the family agree it was a priviledge to call you a mum, gran, great gran,
sister & Auntie xxxx


THIS WAS READ AT AUNTIE MINA'S FUNERAL.

The Final Flight

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I've found that peace at the end of the day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah, yes, these things too I will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My Life's been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one' touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

REST IN PEACE AUNTIE MINA XX

One Year later

It's a year since you came out to Tenerife with me and Pat and I am so glad that at least you enjoyed your holiday so much. You were in the pool every morning when I lay in my bed being lazy, you put me to shame as you had so much energy and I cant believe that 4 months later you were gone. I am taking Angie and Bob out with me next week and I am sure you will be looking down and laughing at us cause we probably wont be brave enough to go into the pool as it is usually freezing in the water at this time of the year and plus you know us girls dont like getting our hair wet. You still dominate my thoughts everyday, love you, and miss you always - Daughter Jack xxx

You're not there anymore

Hi Ma

Still think about you everyday. I still miss your calls everyday and when the phone rings I have to pinch myself as I forget that the call will not be from you. I don't think I will be going to Aberdeen as much now as it doesn't feel the same as I always spent my time in Aberdeen with you and enjoyed the weekends I took Kayla to stay as it was an opportnity for me to see my grand-daughter and have her for the weekend. Trying to get on with things as best as I can. Thinking about you always

Hello Auntie Mina, this is my 1st visit to your GTS
memorial. When I saw your photo it caught my breath.
Still hard to believe your gone and wont be down for
Nialls 1st communion in May. There hasn't been a
family party in Glasgow without you for years - it will be strange.
You really were special you had the biggest smile and
you were always happy to see everyone when you came down to visit. You are such an important part of our
family and we will never stop missing you.
Our only consolation is that your back with Uncle Donnie - the love of your life.
Rest peacefully in Gods garden,its well deserved. You really were a star.
God bless - your neice Ann Marie xxx

MUM - I READ THIS AT YOU AND DAS GRAVESIDE WHEN WE LAID YOU BOTH TO REST

For all those times you stood by us
For all the truth that you made us see
For all the joy you brought to our lives
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love we found in you
We'll be forever thankful mum
You're the one who held us up
Never let us fall
You're the one who saw us through through it all

You were our strength when we were weak
You were our voice when we couldn't speak
You were our eyes when we couldn't see
You saw the best there was in us
Lifted us up when we couldn't reach
You gave us faith 'coz you believed
We’re everything we are
Because you loved us

You were always there for us
The tender wind that carried us
A light in the dark shining your love into our lives
You've been our inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
Our world is a better place because of you

(lyrics to Celine Dion - Because you Loved Me)

ps I hope you were listening as every word was true and i found it so hard to say as i was very choked up with emotion. Da meant the same to us xx

SAFE IN THE ARMS OF JESUS

Our lives go on without you
But nothing is the same
We have to hide our heartaches
When someone speaks your name
Sad are the hearts that love you
Silent the tears that fall
Living our lives without you is the hardest part of all

You did so many things for us
Your heart was kind and true
And when we needed someone we could alwayscount on you
The special years will not return
When we were all together
But with the love within our hearts
You will walk with us forever

Sent with love ♥

When were on our own
And the tears start to flow.
We think of how unfair it is
That you had to go.

Your in our thoughts all day
And in our dreams too,
Trying to turn the clock back
To the day that we had you.

If we could have a miracle
And go back to that day.
We would hold onto you tightly
And never let you go away.



Thinking of you and your family
Love from the wallers xxxxxx.
