Thankyou to everyone who lit a candle. Wrote a message. It was not unnoticed. It has just taken me until this time, to be able to look at these messages. Bobby was my whole world , we were never apart. From the moment we met, until thirty four years later. It was always him and I , against the world . My heart is broken as is our children’s , and Rowan still asks for his gaga. Thankyou all again. Love Joanne Cromwell and family . Xxx

Sending prayers to Joanne,Megan, Damien, Ben,Evie and Rowan on the death of their Husband, Father and grandfather at this very hard time.

Sending prayers to My mum, Nanny and Aunts on the death of their brother and son Bobby.

The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want. He makes me lie down
in green pastures. He leads me beside
still waters. He restores my soul. He
leads me in paths of righteousness for
his name's sake. Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil, for you are with
me; your rod and your staff, they
comfort me. You prepare a table before
me in the presence of my enemies; you
anoint my head with oil; my cup
overflows. Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
forever.

BOBBY- beloved son of Iris and the late John. Deeply missed and forever in our hearts.

Our Wonderful Son

Of all the special gifts in life
However great or small
To have you as our Son
Was the greatest gift of all.
A special time
A special face
A special Son
We can't replace,
With an aching heart
We whisper low
We miss you Son
And love you so.

Love always and forever your heartbroken 💔 mum xoxoxo

  • He loved you both immensely. His dad was his hero . He loved your FaceTime calls and going down to help you in the garden. Or just to see you . Sending you all my love Joanne xx

BROTHER

You gave no one a last farewell,
Nor even said goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
A million times we will cry.
If love alone could save you,
You never would have died.
In life we loved you dearly.
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a place,
No one else can fill.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God took you home.
We will meet again someday
I know in a better place.
I thank God He made you our brother
While you were here on earth.

Love always and forever your sister's Karen, Iris & Joanne xoxo
