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

In the garden of trees
Stands a willow
A willow that weeps
Through the years
Named aptly for
Heartache and sorrow
Each leaf represents
One more tear
With grace those leaves
Blow on a soft wind
To remind of our loved one
Gone Away;
Yet it reaches its branches
Toward heaven
With the promise
We'll see them again someday
It stands in the midst
Of the storm tossed winds
A tree with quiet beauty and grace
Like our hearts it survives
Through the worst of it all
And will 'till we see
Our loved ones face^I^

HEAVEN'S GROCERY STORE
I was walking down life's highway a long time ago.
One day I saw a sign that read 'Heaven's Grocery Store'.
As I got a little closer, the door came open wide.
When I came to myself, I was standing just inside.
I saw a host of angels. They were standing everywhere.
One handed me a basket and said, 'My child, please shop with care'.
Everything a Christian needed was in that Grocery Store.
All you couldn't carry, you could come back the next day for.
First, I got some PATIENCE; LOVE was in the very same row.
Further down was UNDERSTANDING, you needed it wherever you go.
I got a box or two of WISDOM, a bag or two of FAITH.
I just couldn't miss the HOLY SPIRIT, for He was all over the place!!
I stopped to get some STRENGTH and COURAGE to help me run this race.
By then my basket was getting full but...I remembered I needed some GRACE!
I didn't forget SALVATION, for SALVATION was free.
So I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me.
Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
for I thought I had everything to do my Master's will.
As I wind up the aisle I saw PRAYER and I just had to put that in.
For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run right into sin.
PEACE and JOY were plentiful; they were on the last shelf.
SONGS and PRAISES were hanging near, so I just helped myself.
Then I said to the angel, 'How much do I owe?'
He just smiled and said, 'Just take them everywhere you go.'
Again I smiled at him and said, 'How much do I owe?'
He smiled again and said......
'My child, JESUS PAID YOUR BILL A LONG TIME AGO!'
If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would videotape each action and word
so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time
I could spare an extra minute,
to stop and say 'I LOVE YOU'
instead of assuming you would know I do.
If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.
There will always be another day
to say 'I love you',
And certainly there's another chance
to say our 'anything I can do?'
But just in case I might be wrong
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day.
That you didn't take extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today
and whisper in their ear,
tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear.
Take time to say 'I'm sorry,'
'Please forgive me,' 'Thank You,' or 'It's OK'
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.
Dad..... cross your fingers for me today, you know why.
Sit in that room with me, make me feel a bit stronger x x x I Love You x x x
I am home in Heaven, dear ones; Oh so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in Heaven at last.
Did you wonder I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh! but Jesus' love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade.
And He came Himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on
Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely
For I love you dearly still:
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's Will.
There is work still waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth---
You shall rest in Jesus' land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come!

When you think your road is rocky and a bit too steep to climb,
When you think your guardian angel needs to work some overtime,
When your personal jigsaw puzzle has some pieces that won't fit,
When life has no rhyme or reason and you can't make sense of it,
YOU NEED A RAINBOW When the clouds are dark and stormy
And have blocked the sunshine out, And perhaps you start to wonder
What this life is all about, When your trials and tribulations seem to be so hard to bear,
And it seems there is no justice anytime or anywhere, LOOK FOR YOUR RAINBOW
When the molehills seem like mountains and the obstacles are great,
When you feel so heavy laden and your worries just inflate,
When you can't see any ending to the problems that you face,
For they just keep on increasing and you need some breathing space,
PRAY FOR YOUR RAINBOW It may be you need to look a little higher than before,
Or perhaps a little further to see past the clouds once more.
But you'll know it's worth the effort when your rainbow you can see,
And you understand the love behind God's creativity,
SEARCH FOR YOUR RAINBOW
For your rainbow holds a promise that this turbulence will cease,
And your inner conflict will become, instead, deep inner peace.
But if, though searching, you can't find your rainbow at this time,
Until you can, I say with love, you're welcome to share mine!

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be what I know best
A friend who's always there.

I have not Turned my back on you
So there is no need to cry
I’m watching you from heaven
Beyond the dark and stormy skies
I've almost seen you fall apart
When you could barely stand
I asked the lord to comfort you
And watched him take your hand,
He told me your in more pain
Than I could ever be
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard
Then gave your hand to me
Although you might not feel my touch
Or see me by your side.
I whispered that 'i love you'
While i wiped each tear that you cried
So please try not to cry for me
We will meet again one day
Beyond the dark and stormy skies
Were a rainbow leads the way!
