Memories of Dorothy Dunne

Spring flowers

Eileen Grant Mar 01, 2012

With the unusual weather we had here in England, my lawn is covered in lovely Spring flowers that came up too early. I can understand why Dorothy loved flowers and appreciated their beauty. Most of my flowers are happy accidents or idiot-proof but she'd say " what harm, flowers are flowers". I hope the new Spring season will bring a sense of peace to Bill and the lads. We hope for the day they'll be able to smile when they think of Dor and not feel pain. She'd like to know they're fine xxx

me me me,but i dont mind,my life has not changed one bit since Dor left me.it is a really stupid life without her.everything seems false and getting to the next day is a really tough journey.Christmas is a tough time for the lads,its a terrible thing that any festival or birthday will not be a happy time for my great and compassionate children.Dor would not like us to be like this but what else can we do,she was the keystone to our family.This is our destiny,so what you say,you are so lucky.

Christmas 2011

Sarah Dec 06, 2011

Approaching our 3rd Christmas without you and instead of things "getting better",I feel sadder as the years go by.I miss everything about you and I struggle to remember what our life was like before you got sick.
Im sure one day when things become clear in my head,Ill remember the good times again.
Always thinking of you.
Dads going to Jons this year for Christmas and Im going to Jos.
Ill visit you soon.Xxxxx

2nd year anniversary

Sarah May 12, 2011

It still feels like a bad nightmare.I look forward to sleeping as I often see you in my dreams,the way you were before the big C.
Not a day goes by that we're all not saddened thinking of you.
Xxxxxx

2nd yr anniversary

Joanna May 12, 2011

mom you're gone 2 years today and i cant believe it. I am trying to remember the good times instead of that deadly disease but im struggling to get that horrible hospice out of my head. You wouldnt have wanted to be remembered for your illness so ill try harder. I miss you so much, the girls would love their nana back. Ava talks about you all the time and remembers you holding her. Life flies by but very differently. Even the good times are always sad, no matter the occasion. I hope our family will be happy again one day. I love you & miss you terribly xx

Dors Spring Campaign

Bill Dunne Apr 17, 2011

When Dor was with us it was an exciting to be with her during the Spring Season.She would study the Gardening books in readyiness for a new Rose she had spotted.She was really excited about the thought of planting and enjoying the Horticulture.Jon wanted some of her Roses to plant in his Garden in Spain and now the two Roses I dug up are thriving in the Spanish sun.All our Hearts are still bleeding at the thought of Dor not being able to tend and love her plants here at home,but Heaven has a lot to live up to.God isnt good all the time.Bill

To Dor with love at Christmas

Eileen Grant Dec 25, 2010

You pop into my head at random times Dor, but at this time of year especially, you're remembered with love and fondness. I have a nightlight burning in front of your photo at the moment so before I go to bed i blow it out and say goodnight Dor so ..................Goodnight Dor xxx

New baby coming.

Joanna Dec 03, 2010

Mom, im having an 'i miss my mom day' today. im due what should be your 5th grandchild tomorrow and cant stop thinking about you.

If its a boy, my heart will break as you always wanted a grandson so much. Ava sees me crying writing this and said dont worry nanas only gone to heaven to help santa get the presents together, she will be back tomorrow. I wish xx

Missing You.

Sarah Dec 02, 2010

It hurts as much today as it did the day you left us.
Approaching our 2nd Christmas without you.
The only light at the end of the tunnel for this year is Joanna and Marks new baby.
Hope you're watching over us all.
Love you.Xxxxx

For you.xx

Sarah Oct 27, 2010

God Saw you Getting Tired And A Cure Was Not To Be, So He Put His Arms Around You And Whispered "Come With Me"
With Tearful Eyes I Watched You, And Saw You Pass Away.Although I Loved Your Dearly, I Could Not Make U Stay.
A Golden Heart Stopped Beating, Hard Working Hands At Rest. God Broke My Heart To Prove To Me He only Takes The Best
