Window Dresser and Dressmaker
Wishaw
She was an only child daughter of Helen and Samual Shelley she married Tom Tilley on 1/7/60 she has two children Donna and Fraser and four grandchildren Shelly, Nicole and Daryn are Donna 's kids and Cameron is Fraser's son.
She was taken away from us very suddenly and unexpected after a short illness.
I was on holiday at the time so i didnt get to say goodbye and i miss her so very much .
She wasnt just my mum she was my best friend we were always together and i saw her every day so now im on my own every day.
nothing is the same since she went away and i keep hoping and praying that i will wake up and it will all have been a bad dream.
I have a great friend called Susan and i don't know what i would do without her at times she is always there whenever im down and need someone to talk too sometimes i think that my mum sent her to me too watch over me because although i knew her before i lost my mum i only really became really friendly with her afterwards and although no one will ever take the place of my mum susan is the next best thing to my mum she is always there when i need her and if im having a down day she is always there no matter what troubles she has of her own and i know she would do anything for me if i asked for a million pounds she would give me her last penny to try and help i only wish i could ask her to bring back my mum cos i know if i did she would do her best to if it was possible. i think she is my guardian angel sent to me from my darling mum as she could be here with me she sent the next best thing.
my daughter Shelly is also a great comfort to me at times as i can talk to her about my mum and although she doesnt say much i know she misses her gran a lot too and she understands how i feel but she has her moments after all she is a teenager so that explains it ?
A POEM FOR MY MUM
THEY SAY MEMORIES ARE GOLDEN* WELL MAYBE THAT IS TRUE*

I'D WALK THE PATH TO HEAVEN& BRING U BACK AGAIN*
OUR FAMILY CHAIN IS BROKEN & NOTHING SEEMS THE SAME*
BUT AS WE ARE CALLED ONE BY ONE* THE CHAIN WILL LINK AGAIN*
MISSING U MUM* ALWAYS IN MY HEART* LOVE DONNA XXX
I Wish Heaven Had a Telephone
I Wish Heaven had a telephone so I could hear your voice again.
I thought of you today but that was nothing you I thought of you yesterday and days before that too.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.
All I have are memories and a picture in a frame.
You're memory is a keepsake for which I will never part
God has you in his arms
I have you in my heart
miss u millions mum

Mother Dearest
Mother dearest you will always be
My mum so loving and loved by me
For God has taken you to be by his side
Now in heaven is where you reside
You have blessed my life in so many ways
I will cherish our memories until the end of my days
You left me too soon and this was not part of our plan
But God's wishes always come before those of man
Without you I must travel the path alone
No longer my guide,the way you had shown
Your heart may have been weak, but you were strong
For your loving embrace I will always long
God sent you to me as a special gift from above
To teach me life's lessons and shower me with your love
I will always remember your beautiful and smiling face
In my heart you will always have a very special place
A special bond we shared like on other
For this is only possible between a daughter and her mother
I thanked God for each day we were able to share
But without you my life is too difficult to bear
Being with God I hope you find joy and peace
In this I can find comfort and some happiness at least
For Mum dearest you will always be
My Mother so loving and Loved by me.
Missing mum
I awake each morning to start a new day
but the pain of losing you never goes away
I go about the things I have to do
And as the hours pass I think again of you
I want to phone you and just hear your voice
Then I remember that I dont have that choice
For you are not there and now my heart cries
Just to see you again and tell you goodbye
To say mum I love you and always will
And I hope that much of you, in me you've instilled
The day that you left I just didn't know
That you were going where I couldn't go
And now all my memories of you are so dear
But gosh, how I miss you and wish you were here
who now can hear me when I need to cry?
It's so hard to tell you "Mum goodbye"
Someday I know all will be well
And I'll see you again with stories to tell
Off how you were missed and how we have grown
And how good it is to finally be home
Until then my memories of you I'll keep near
And I'll pass them on to those who are dear
I love and miss you Mum Donna
Never Forget You
I miss you Mum more than you could know
All the years without you have been like a blow
I see other people, who don't know what theyve got
I feel like hitting them, more often than not.
It's been five years since then
And i can still remember when
You smiled, and when you cried
Sometimes, it's as if you never died.
Everytime I think of you, I feel like crying
I swear,it's as if part of me is still dying
You were the greatest Mum ever
And I thought you would be there forever.
But God took you away
Leaving me here to stay
I wish that you were here
Just so that we could be near.
I'll never forget the time I had with you
Even if that time is now through
I wish it wasn't with all my heart
But there's nothing I can do, no way I can play that part
No one will ever replace you
no matter how much they try
You'll always be my Mother
Until the day I die.
For My Mum In Loving Memory
There are so many things I wish I'd said and done
But now that your gone, it's something
I'll never be able to do......
But I want you to know
that though you're out of sight,
you'll always be in my heart,
I want you to know that
I'll always cherish you, and always love you.......
You are too precious to be forgotten,
and too priceless to be ever replaced.
You were one in a million, and you'll always be~
The precious and unique mum
that I cared for so dearly.........
Forever will you live on, in my heart and mind.....
Forever you will live in my thoughts and never die......
And until that day, when we shall meet again,
I'll continue to cherish all my memories of you.
In Memory Of A Special mum
They say that time's a healer
but I am not so sure
for every time I think of you
I MISS YOU even more
The pain and heartache linger on
and make me feel so blue
and even when I wear a smile
I'm longing Mum, for you
And so, I just want you to know
that you will always stay
loved and remembered in my heart
forever and a day.
love forever and always
your everloving daughter and best friend

In Loving Memory of My Mum. My Hero, My Friend
Mum,you were my guide from beginning to end,
You were someone i admired, with much love and respect.
Mum you were a remarkable woman...
In all things great and small,,,
Dependable, loving and caring ,
You were one in a million,
Mum you were a perfect woman....
At least you were to me....
And what ever faults you might have had
My eyes could never see.
Mum, you were my teacher ...
What a brillant mind, you had,
You taught me many things,
that endure forever in my heart.
Mum, you've passed on to te other side...
Though I wish you could be here with me...
You're irreplaceable and unforgettable...
The best mum there could ever be.
With love always, I remember you,
With fond memories, I think of you...
With hope I believe we'll meet again,
Rest in peace Dear Mum , Always. xxx
mother
My Mother is an angel, who came to earth one day,
To spread her love and caring and light the darkened way.
Her voice is soft and soothing, she has a tender touch;
I thank God for you Mum, I love and miss you very much
