Vanessa McGoldrick died July 1997 aged 52 years. My mum and dad owned a general store at the time
she died and she worked in there always happy always smiling with the customers, their shop was in
Portgordon. She was a loving wife to Bill and a fantastic mother to Gillian, Amanda and Judith and
a doting grandmother to Emma and Naomi but she was taken suddenly from us after being diagnosed a
few months earlier with cancer.
Mum we all loved you so much and we all miss you loads, they say only the good die young and they
were right.
It is at times like this when I realise how much I loved you, miss you and need your help. Life is
not good at the moment and I miss you so much. You now have another two grand-daughters Cerys and
Bethan and another grand-child on the way.
We all miss and love you so much.

Mum I Love You and know you are watching and guiding me
When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
the way you did today,
While thinking of the many things
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
And each time you think of me,
I know you'll miss me, too.
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try and understand,
That an angel came and called my name
and took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready
in heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
For all my life I'd always thought
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for
and so much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible
that I am leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
I thought, just for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
and maybe see your smile.
But then I fully realized
that this could never be.
For emptiness and memories
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things
that I'd miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God look down and smiled at me,
from His great golden throne.
He said, -This is eternity
and all I've promised you,
Today your life on earth is past,
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
And since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true,.
So won't you take my hand
and share this life anew..
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here in your heart.
The Butterfly
A butterfly came floating by and I though I knew it's face,
It landed on my shoulder and spread it's wings of lace,
I looked and saw it smiling as it winked and flew away,
I'm sure I heard it whisper we will meet again one day.
A butterfly came calling and I'm really not sure why,
It just came down upon me as it tumbled from the sky,
It didn't stop for very long but its beauty did inspire,
For it made me smile when I was low and life was feeling dire.
A butterfly has flown away for I watched it on the breeze,
Though its visit now has warmed me and made me feel at ease,
It's hard to share this grieving and the pain I have within,
But a butterfly has shown me how a new time can begin.
Remembrance never dies. Your mam will be forever in your hearts.
miss you
God walked around his garden
and saw an empty space,
he then looked down from heaven
and saw your smiling face
he put his arms around you
and whispered come and rest
his garden must be beautiful, cause he only takes the best.
Not a day goes past when we don't think about you, we miss you more and more each day.
Please give Gillian the strength to carry on during these dark days.
I know you walk by my side every day as I feel your ever presence and know that you look down on us and guide us through our daily lives.
We still appreciate your values and morals and hope that our lives live up to the expectations that you had for us.
Missing you so much and know that you will be with me when i have your next grandchild which is due next month.
Love you -
Things are bad mum - worse than ever why did you have to go so soon??
Please don't mourn for me;
I'm still here, though you don't see.
I'm right by your side
each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.
My body is gone but I'm always near
I'm everything you feel, see or hear.
My spirit is free,
but I'll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.
I'll never wander out of your sight--
I'm the brightest star
on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach--
I'm the warm moist sand
when you're at the beach.
I'm the colorful leaves
when autumn comes around,
And the pure white snow
that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers
of which you're so fond--
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.
I'm the first bright blossom
you'll see in the spring;
The first warm raindrop
that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light
when the sun starts to shine,
And you'll see
that the face in the moon is mine.
When you start thinking
there's no one to love you,
You can talk to me
through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer
through the leaves on the trees,
And you'll feel my presence
in the soft summer breeeze.
I'm the hot salty tears
that flow when you weep
And the beautiful dreams
that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on baby's face.
Just look for me, I'm everyplace !
Miss You
