Thomas Richardson died in hospital with all his loving family around him. His daughters were with him every day while he was in hospital recovering from having his appendix out, sadly he got a chest infection and pneumonia. He also suffered with alzheimers which was beginning to be frustrating for us all.
Well what can i say my granddad was a true gentleman he took care of his appearance and always had a suit on for socialising with his friends. He loved his grandchildren and great grandchildren he was a joy to be around and he cared for everyone around him even in hospital he told us all not to worry about him and he would be alright.
He loved music and all the old films he would sit and watch i always remeber he loved Laurel and Hardy! he was a great fan of Frank Sinartra too which we played for him in hospital and he even sung the songs and had a little dance in his hospital bed!!
Well granddad it's just not the same with out you and your music and laughter, i miss you loads and think about you all the time. You have another great grandchild which is our first son and first grandson for your daughter Valerie (my mam) and i have named him after yourself i couldn't think of a better person who was kind loving and caring to take your name Thomas will be so proud to have your name and i am so proud to have a son who can be called 'Tommy' !! Love you always your granddaughter Samantha xxxxx

In Sympathy
So sorry for your loss. Your story has touched my heart. My nan passed away in July and it feels like my whole world has been taken away. My thoughts are with you and your family. God bless. I hope you find this poem of comfort, as I have done. x
What is Dying?
A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says 'She is gone'.
Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large now as when I last saw her. Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone there are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout 'There she comes!'
That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.
Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.
Miss you Dad
