BOB BLACKSTONE - Such a Wonderful Man. Sadly passed away on the 19th August 2006.
He had just had his 51st birthday on July 22nd. He was diagnosed with Lung Cancer which had spread
to his brain. Bob was a Police Officer serving in the Met for 30 years. He served at Hayes Police
Station before going on to become a detective..He began riding a motorbike and went on to be one of
the best undercover motorcylist's in the Met. He will be sadly missed by his family and
friends. Leaving behind his wife, children and grandchildren.
We had only 10 weeks from diagnosis, such a very short time to try and understand what was happening
let alone begin to accept it all. Bob was such a Wonderful Husband, Dad, Grandad, Brother, Son,
Uncle and friend and was taken away from us much too soon. We all love and miss him so very much.
We miss you so much Dad...Keep looking after Mum
We love You x x x x
God saw you getting tired,
a cure was not meant to be.
so he put his arms around you,
and whispered 'come with me'.
with broken hearts we loved you,
as we watched you pass away.
although we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.
your golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest.
god took you up to heaven,
to prove he only takes the best.
Bob was my best friend in the whole world. He was my happiness, my smile, my warmth in life. My best
friend, my soulmate. He would do anything for me. I was his princess. He adored me and I adored
him. He was happy, if I was happy. We knew that we had a special relationship. One that was envied
by many. We would always thank God for all the good things we had in life, we knew we were lucky, we
never took that for granted.
Bob was taken away from us so quickly, we hardly had time to come to terms with his illness, before
he closed his eyes and said goodbye.
The light in my life has gone out and in its place there is a deep, deep sadness. Bob was one in
million, quiet, undemanding, strong and fair. He was generous and caring and always there to lend a
helping hand when called upon. I will miss him forever. I will love him for eternity. My life will
never be the same without him.
All My Love .... from Your Poppet X X X
I love you Dad......
I miss you every day.
I hope you can see mum...she'd make you so proud.
Whatever her feelings she puts on such a brave face....She misses you unconditionally....I'm sure that's the only word to describe it.
Please promise me you'll always hold a magic wing over her.... I try to Dad... harder than ever before.
Mum lost her best friend the day you died...... I'm still keeping my promise to you in being her new one. I can hear you when I talk to her, I can still hear what you would suggest to do. Sometimes I just simply don't know what is best.
Guide me like you have done so far dad...... Try and send mum a message to make her feel more at ease. If you can't....send it to me.... I'll deliver it in person!! :)
I love you Dad...
You would just adore Ruby.... She's a real beauty (biased I know!)

Hello My Darling
Well, as you probably know, Sarah gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Ruby is the light of our lives, you would love her. I can honestly say Bob, you would be so proud of Sarah, she has done wonders with herself and her life. I stand back in amazement at her. She is such a wonderful, loving and gentle mother. Thank you for watching over her.
I still miss you and our lovely life Bob...I still wonder how and why it all happened. I still think I will never get over the loss of you and of us. I love you dearly and always will.
We are still each others forever x x x
All my love Rita

Hey Dad,
You know i hear the song "You raise me up" all the time, and i smile because it makes me feel like your still around, but listenng to it on here makes me sad because i miss you. I went to the bank yesterday to get some money out and the woman asked if i was getting a present for fathers day, seems small but it got me a bit :( i cant give you a present but i can say happy fathers day, i hope your looking down on us all, keeping my promise, love you Dad xxx
HI Bob I know you would say you dont have to apologise, however I feel I should, I have not been able to contact you thru here as I have had technical difficulties, that aside I do think about you along with Sarah and Rita, We all dont appear to stay in touch as much as we did in the early days, but I know you will be taking care of them, and I know that you helped bring us all together even though we did live miles and miles apart. You and your family are always in my thoughts, and I still do and always will appreciate the help you and Sarah gave me through our most difficult time. I know you tried your hardest however I believe that this was to show us that justice is coming his way and that was just a taster I knew he would not go to prison, but I know something else is in store, I believe too that you tried to tell Sarah this in the reading you were able to come thru to her, We have been assured that he will not go un punished for what he did I know I shouldnt live from day to day thinking will this be the day I get to find out tho its so hard not too.
Please look in on Naomi for me and assure her she is not forgotten and we love her immensly, I wonder each day what she is doing and tho I know when you go home your only a thought away I know Naomi and you still have your jobs to do there. I never new you Bob, tho by getting to know your family I know you are a beautiful person kind and caring and deeply missed by your loved ones. I know that you have inspired what has happend around them, especialy your lovely wife, you asked me to tell her a long time ago when you suggested the teaching, but I couldnt at the time as I felt she was in too much pain to know that her life was going to change and that she would find some kind of happiness again. Im glad that she has and I know that you are truly happy and helped it to happen Take care of Sarah and the baby and tell her that I think about her all the time
Much Love and Big Hugs

Hello My Darling
Well here I am, in Spain. I miss you more when I am here, maybe that is because Spain was more us than the UK. I feel all sorts of confusing emotions for the first week or so until I get settled. Will I ever stop missing you, missing our life, missing all we had and all we had to look forward to...? I think I will miss you forever.
The sun is shinning and I can see you sat outside on the wall with your tea, chatting to all who happen to stroll by, including the old spanish ladies whom you loved to converse with...lol
There are so many area's in m life that I feel I have done full circle and I am now starting yet again. I need your love and guidance, I still need to have signs that I am doing the right thing...altho I know the message that Sarah got was definatley from YOU...no one else would know those things. I hope you will be waiting for me Bob..you are and always will be my soulmate. I'm living m life and I feel a sense of happiness again, but I feel like I'm waiting....... I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. x x x x x
At last...I'm back
Hello My Forever Darling.....Bob I've been unable to get to this site for so long, I've looked all the time but could not get logged in...I'm so sorry. Ive missed you here.
Well as you know so much has changed....for us all...I've been thinking of you every day. I still miss you so very much. Christmas was a little odd, not just for me but for the kids also...everything about it was different but, life is different now, different because you are not here. We all woke up in a different house, how odd that was!!! but the day went along as all the days do. We remembered you at grace before lunch and I'm sure you were there.
Thank you Bob for organising my life for me.
Thank you for the wonderful messages.
Thank you for finding me the best you could.
Thank you for looking after my heart...something you always did, something I know you will always do..xxx
I LOVE YOU and I MISS YOU for always and forever.
Much love to you My darling Bob

PS...look after the little bundle
Just had to call in and let you know that although I do not write as much on your site Bob, I do think of you everyday, I cant stop thinking of the messages you gave Sarah, they blew me away and they keep making me smile and bring me so much comfort, I dont know how people who dont believe in the afterlife, just like you didnt, move on or cope, but Im so pleased me and your fantastic daugther do. I am smiling from ear to ear now that I know when her little bundle of joy will be here, I cant believe it, make sure if you can that he is not early or late and that he is born on this day, It would be nice for that day to be turned in to a happy one for Sarah and though it will be tinged with sadness you know she will always hold you in her heart. Im so pleased there both having a baby, she has been so crushed by your passing and though you told her that we two worry too much you have to understand that when we lose some one you love like I do Naomi and Sarah does you, it is extremely hard to come to terms with, You know your safe and happy, we yearn and ache to hold you, touch you look in to your happy smiling faces and make more memories of you All this was snatched away from us and it is hard.
Take extra care of Sarah assure that all things go right for her and that she has a beautiful perfect child.
Much Love Bob and Many Thanks for all that you do for me and your daughter, I guess you know the next one is will you please call and see Naomi and give her a hug and kiss from all of her family XXXXX
Dad, I miss you so much.
I miss life how it was.
I miss Long Lane
I miss Mum
I miss Kieran
I miss what we all had for so long.
I took advantage of what we had, I had no idea that you’d be taken from us so suddenly and so soon.
If I’d have known before I’d have told you that I loved you every day. I’d have hugged you harder than I hugged you before.
I tell mum more than I used to how much I love her….. You know I miss her so much with her being that little bit further away from me?
Please stay with me Dad…. Especially over the next 6 months, I’m both scared and excited but knowing your watching will make me feel more at ease.
When I went to the doctor he gave me a due date ….. 22nd July 2009 ….. Your birthday Dad, I almost cried sat in the surgery!
So long as you’re in my heart you’re never far away ….. I’ll make sure my child knows all about you.
I wish you were here……..
I love you, I miss you and I will never forget you Dad x x x
