Aged 61 years
Dearly loved wife, mother and nana
Of Loftus, Cleveland
Daughter of the late Frank and Ivy Dobison, sister of the late Edna, wife to Peter, mother to Denise and nana to Gemma Rose and Garry Lee
She was taken by cancer of the bile ducts which is extremely rare and also renal failure, heart disease and diabetes
My mam was everything to me. She was my mam, sister and best friend all in one. Nothing was too much trouble. She was friendly to everyone, would speak to anyone and give you her last. She was a true friend. Always happy to be with her family she doted on her grandchildren. Unfortunately Gemma Rose was only 5 when she passed away and Garry Lee only a year old. Gemma still remembers her nana but Garry needs to be reminded. They will not forget her as long as I am here. She was and still is part of this family.
She enjoyed singing and entertaining people, making them laugh. She also enjoyed a game of bingo.
We never thought it would be cancer that would take her. She'd had health problems all her life since she was 14, when she had a kidney removed. But it never got her down. She always rose above her illness and laughed at it. To see her succumb to cancer was the most terrible thing ever. She couldn't fight it, and after 6 months it finally took her.
Death may have taken her body from us, but her spirit will always remain. I see her in everything, everywhere.
We will never forget you, and wait to be reunited with you one day. I know you'll be there mam.............................................
Happy Birthday Mam
Happy Birthday Mam!!! Another year that we can't share it with you, but like previous years we're going for a meal to celebrate. Decided on The Cross Keys this year, dad said he hasn't been there for a long time so it'll make a nice change. No doubt you'll be having a knees up with nana and grandad, Aunty Edna and Brian. Hope you light them skies up.
While I'm here, can I ask that you send this little pumpkin a lot of strength so that they'll grow strong enough to stay in our lives. And make sure you give Ben an extra big cuddle from me (and that he doesn't make himself sick on birthday cake).
Love you always Mam, xxxx

If luck was a raindrop
I'd send you a shower,
If hope is a minute
I'd send you an hour,
If happiness is a leaf
I'd give you a tree,
And if you need a friend
You will always have me.

This morning when I wakened
And saw the sun above,
I Softly said, “Good Morning Lord,
...Bless everyone I love!”
Right away I thought of you
And said a loving prayer
That He would bless you specially
And keep you free from care!
I thought of all the happiness
A day could hold in store;
I wished it all for you because
No one deserves it more!
I felt so warm and good inside
My heart was all aglow---
I know God heard my prayer for you
---He hears them all you know!

We had so little time to share,
Too soon, I had to leave.
I know how much you love me,
I know how much you grieve.
I know how sharp your pain is,
I feel the aching in your hearts.
My life so quickly ended
Before it barely had a start.
I remember how you held me,
And kissed my face and hands,
You cuddled me so gently;
But, God had other plans.
I was your perfect angel,
From God you knew I came,
Suddenly he called me home again,
And now God holds my hand.
I know you’ll always miss me,
I understand your pain is hard to bear.
Just remember that I’m in heaven
And we’ll see each other there.
So smile when you think of me
And wipe away all of your tears
I’m cuddled now in heaven
By our family members here.
I’m waiting here in heaven,
And on the day we meet again.
I’ll be the first to smile and greet you,
When God calls you home.

For you mam on Mothers Day
A MOTHER'S DAY MESSAGE
Dear Mam,
Mother's day will soon be here,
Oh, Mam, I do miss you!
You've been on my mind all day today.
Just yesterday, I was out shopping,
Found myself looking at Mother's Day cards.
Then, bam, it all came back to me.
Mam, it's been so hard.
Many memories of you and me
Have been coming back, flooding my mind;
Every laugh, hug, and tear.
You truly were one of a kind.
Mam, I'll be sending you a message
This Mother's Day.
It will arrive on an angel's wing.
All my love flying straight to you,
Many smiles I hope it brings.
I want you to know
I haven't forgotton you.
Alive in my heart you'll always stay.
Know that my message is wrapped in much love,
And contains many hugs & kisses for you on this Mother's Day.
Love you always mam, your daughter Denise xxxx
PS Give Ben a big cuddle and kiss from me please and make sure he feels soft and cuddly (you know what I mean)
do you believe?
DO YOU EVER SIT ALONE IN AN EMPTY ROOM?
DO YOU APPRECIATE AN OPEN BLOOM....
DO YOU SMELL ITS SWEET PERFUME?
DO YOU HEAR A VOICE CALL OUT YOUR NAME
REAL CLOSE UP TO YOUR EAR?
DO YOU FEEL THE NEED TO ANSWER BUT THERES NO ONE
THERE TO HEAR..............
HAVE YOU EVER FELT A SHIVER AS THOUGH SOMEONES
PASSING BY?
DO YOU WONDER ON DOWN MEMORY LANE AND HAVE A
LITTLE CRY?
DO YOU BELIEVE IN ANGELS?DO THEY MAKE YOU SMILE?
CAN YOU FEEL ONE ON EACH SHOULDER AS YOU WALK THAT
WEIRY MILE??????????
DO YOU KNOW THAT ALL THESE THINGS ARE MESSAGES TO YOU?.............
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE AN ANGEL ALWAYS BY
YOUR SIDE?
WHO HOLDS YOUR HAND AND STROKES YOUR HAIR AND WIPES THE TEARS YOU'VE CRIED.....
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT ALL THESE THINGS I SAY TO YOU
IS TRUE???
DO YOU BELIEVE THEY DO EXIST..................
I'LL TELL YOU YES THEY DO!!
Thinking of you all
Thinking of you all at this very difficult time. May memories help to soothe your pain. Be strong for each other.
