Dave Turner.
A gentle giant of a man.
Long time friend of my mothers.
Then...friend to me!
Passed over peacefully 9/8/06
Went to sleep...never awoke!
Dave was like an 'uncle' to me over the years!
Because of his broadness getting hugs was like being hugged by a giant teddy bear!!!
Always there to listen & to help. Just a very genuine person.
Before he married his stunning wife he lived a couple of doors away from us (my mum's) with his
Father George where Dave was brought up!
A Loving husband of Lynn whom sadly passed over from Cancer in November 2004.
Loving Father & Grandaddy too.
Sadly Dave passed away before i had the chance to be told...resulting in my missing his funeral.
This is something i regret so much...but was no-ones fault just an over sight. BUT if i could turn
back the clock...bought the local paper on the day it was printed & NOT 2 days later... i would've
seen your name there in the Death's column.
I can't go back...& it hurts.
As i never got the chance to say GOODBYE or pay my respects i have made this for him.
R.I.P. Dave. One of the sweetest, most gentle people i have ever come to meet!
Now at Peace with his adored wife Lynn Elizabeth who's Godmother to my Rebecca & i Godmother to
their 2nd daughter Jodie.
The last time i saw you & hugged you Dave was at Lynn's funeral & we raised a glass to her that
day...little did i know then it was to be our last time together!

Remember....
When you remember me, it means that you
have carried something of who I am with you,
that I have left some mark on who I am on who you are.
It means that you can summon me back to your mind
even though countless years and miles may stand between us.
It means that if we meet again, you will know me,
and hear my voice and speak to me in your heart.
For as long as you remember me, I am never entirely lost.
In my thoughts lots over the past few days!
Sending lotsa love up to Heaven. x x x x x x x
A LETTER FROM HEAVEN....
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say.
But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; Here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through.
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, 'I welcome you.'
'It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on.
I need you here so badly, you are part of my plan.
There is so much that we can do, to help our mortal man.'
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you.... in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years.
Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
But together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too;
That as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who is in sorrow and pain;
Then you can say to God at night....'My day was not in vain.
And now I am contented... that my life was worthwhile.
Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.'
So if you meet somebody who is sad and low;
Just lend a hand to pick them up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go....
from that body to be free.
Remember you're not going....
you're coming here to be with me Xxxxxx
Goodbye my friend.
Dave...i knew from when i was a little girl. My mum & you went to the same school & you remained friends up until HER death in 1996.
When you met Lynn you brought her round to mum's...to meet her & get our approval.
Lynn was beautiful! A stunning looking woman and at age 11 i wanted to be HER!!!
We went to your wedding & less than a year later Hayley was born.
Your Hayley was to be my bridesmaid when she was 3 & when Jodie came along i was chosen to be a Godmother! I was so thrilled.
When my 2nd daughter came along Lynn was her Godmother.
You were like an uncle to me growing up...then with my kids.
A broad strong looking man with a heart of gold.
Always there if i needed you...and for most people too!
I know when Lynn died a big part of you died too!
You adored her!!!
It wasn't to be much longer with your suffering over your loss...for one night you went to bed...and didn't wake the next day.
Eternal happiness & rest now.
Lotsa love.
Sara....and family. xxxxxxxxxx
