Derek Richardson
Suddenly passed away 15th July 1999
Aged 58 years.
Dad worked as a plater working abroad in algeria, saudi arabia for many years but missed his family so much came back to washington and worked for a company called westline engineering until this closed. Due to health issuses he then worked for a courier company (part time ) as he did not like the idea of not working at all and this carried on until his sudden death.
Dad lived in concord washington with his wife Norma.
Dad has 2 children, oldest Susan and youngest Denise.
He loved his family and especially his grandchildren - Alan, Sarah, Gavin, John, and Shona.
His mum and dad Freda and Harry lived in houghton - le - spring which was where he was born, and his 2 sisters Joyce and Anne live in shiney row.
My very special Dad died suddenly with a heart attack after suffering from angina for a few years.
My dad was one of the most caring and loving dads you could ever meet. He lived for his family and would do anything for anybody. He was always there to help pick up the pieces in our lifes, if ever i had a problem I knew who I would call or go to.
He was funny, caring, a good listener, loving and give great advice to anyone he met.
He also loved his yorkshire terrier dogs Brandy and Mitzy, and loved to go to his caravan every weekend at witton castle taking the dogs and the granchildren with him.
My dad was the world to me and I will never ever forget him. He holds a very special big place in my heart. He is in my thoughts every day and I still cannot believe he has gone. I LOVE YOU DAD X X X X
Dad as you will know you now have 2 great grandchildren Jamie-Lee and Jordan who I know you would have cherished please look over all of us and give us guidance just like you would have done.
WE ALL LOVE AND MISS YOU MILLIONS X X X X X X X X

Monday
❄
May the meaning of Christmas
Be deeper, its friendships stronger,
And its hopes brighter
As it comes to you this year.
Tuesday
❄
As we prepare for Christmas,
Our thoughts will be of you,
You always made our Christmas’s,
The happiest we ever knew.
Wednesday
❄
We'll try our best to celebrate
The birth of Christ our King,
But in our hearts we realise
We've lost our everything.
For Thursday
❄
At Christmas-tide the open hand
Scatters its bounty o'er sea and land,
And none are left to grieve alone,
For Love is heaven and claims its own.
Friday
❄
⋱ ⋮ ⋰A Christmas Wish⋱ ⋮ ⋰
❄
Christmas tree's begin appearing
Cards will follow on
Trimmings all around us
And we begin to have Christmas Fun
❄
Greetings are being sent to us
But for some its just to hard
As simple as it sounds
They cant even send a card
❄
A time for celebrating
To send a Christmas Cheer
But for some its time for wishing
Their Loved ones could just be near
❄
By Lisa Heritage
Christmas Eve
❄
Christmas without you here with me,
Can never possibly be the same.
But I carry an Angel within my heart;
One so precious, who has your name.
❄
An Angel forever watching over me,
At Christmas time, and over the year.
Although you can't be here anymore,
Inside my heart, you are so very near.
❄
There is no special present for you,
Wrapped up under my Christmas tree.
But I have a greater gift to give to you;
All the love you can still feel from me.
❄
No, Christmas time without you here,
Could not ever possibly be the same.
But, I have had the precious gift of you,
And the memories and love, will remain.
unknown
Christmas Day
❄
We are sad within our memory
And lonely, this Christmas Day,
For the ones we loved so dearly,
Have forever been called away.
❄
We think of them in silence,
No eye may see us weep.
But many silent tears are shed,
When others are asleep.

When I have no one to turn to
And I am feeling kind of low
When there is no one here to talk to
And no where I really want to go
I search deep within myself
It is the love inside my heart
That lets me know my Angels are there
Even though we are many miles apart
A smile then appears upon my face
And the sun begins to shine
I hear a voice, so soft and sweet
Saying, “Everything will be just fine”
It may seem that I am alone
But I am never by myself at all
Whenever I need my Angels near
All I have to do is call
An Angel’s love is always true
On that you can always depend
They will always stand behind you
And will always be your friend.
★
As Christmas time approaches
We miss you more and more
Memories of past Yule times
We always will adore
We still hang the decorations
Put the lights upon the tree
We hang the cards upon the wall
This one's for you, you see
Even though you are not here
You're always in our hearts
So we remember you this Christmas
While we're temporarily apart.

How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

Monday
You were my Angel,
But angels were too few.
God needed Angels,
And so he sent for you.
Tuesday
Smile of an Angel,
With a twinkle in your eye.
I'll remember you forever,
Only for now, I'll say goodbye.
Wednesday
Laughter came so easy,
To someone with your smile.
I was lucky to have known you,
And loved you for a while.
Thursday
I borrowed you from heaven,
Now you must return.
Of all the lessons in my life,
This is the hardest one to learn.
Friday
A Silent Tear By Gaynor Llewellyn
Just close your eyes and you will see
All the memories that you have of me
Just sit and relax and you will find
I'm really still there inside your mind
Don't cry for me now I'm gone
For I am in the land of song
There is no pain, there is no fear
So dry away that silent tear
Don't think of me in the dark and cold
For here I am, no longer old
I'm in that place that's filled with love
Known to you all, as "UP ABOVE"
Saturday
It's a Time of Heartfelt Sadness
It's a time of heartfelt sadness
When a loved one passes on
But know your loved one lives in joy
And peace where he (or she) has gone
Oh how much he will be missed
That's where the sadness lies
But others who have missed him
now rejoice in Heaven's skies
We know one day we'll join him
Because our time on earth will flee
We'll then live with him forever
Throughout all eternity
--By Ron Tranmer ---
Sunday
I Have a Place in Heaven
I have a place in heaven
Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears.
It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.
My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.

Everyone Missing Their Mother’s And Children
“On Mother’s Day”
M - O - T - H - E - R
"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell
"MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.

Monday
Our lives go on without you
But nothing is the same
We have to hide our heartache
When someone speaks your name
Tuesday
Sad are the hearts that love you
Silent are the tears that fall
Living without you
Is the hardest part of all
Wednesday
You did so many things for us
Your heart was so kind and true
And when we needed someone
We could always count on you
Thursday
The special years will not return
When we are all together
But with the love in our hearts
You walk with us forever

Saturday
Afterglow
I'd like the memory of me
To be a happy one.
I'd like to leave an after glow
Of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo
Whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
And bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve,
To dry before the sun
Of happy memories
That I leave when life is done

Where I Am
No breaking heart is here,
No sad and chilling pain;
No wasted cheeks where the frequent tear
Rolls down and leaves its stain.
Dear friends of mortal years,
The trusted and the true,
You are watching still in the valley of tears,
But I wait to welcome you.
I won’t forget, O no!
For memory’s golden chain
Shall bind my heart to the hearts below
Till we meet to touch again.
Each link is strong and bright,
And love’s eternal flame,
Flows freely down, like a river of light,
To the world from where I came.
