In loving memory of Jean ( Corbett ) Crichton who sadly passed away on 18th February 2019

We are all defined by the things we love. For Jean Crichton it was the simple things that made her happy:

Family, Budgies, Being in the garden chatting to neighbours, A good book and A hot cup of tea.

Fiercely independent, sometimes stubborn. “Sharp as tack” her family would say.

Born in the 1927,
Jean was the youngest of eleven children with two set of twins among the other ten

Jean saw changes over the years. Working in the paper mill making the paper for the bank notes, to on line banking. Some of these changes she never quite understood but learnt to adapt to life in 2019

She married Jimmy In 1953, after meeting at the local picture house. They moved into the brand new 13 Windsor Road and lived there until she died.

Fiona was their only child who married John and went from loving mother and mother in law to doting gran to grand daughters Louise and Susann. Louise married Craig and Gran soon became a great granny to Logan and Jacob. Both loved the fact “great granny” lived across the road. They enjoyed going over and helping her with jigsaws and chatting about their day at school over a cup of tea. Having grandkids and great grand kids brought out her love for knitting. All the children had something knitted by gran. Whether it be a hat or a cardigan or a shawl.

Another great passion for Jean was her love for sports. Something her family never understood. Athletics, Football, Ice skating. She was passionate for them all.

Hibs was her team and getting a picture with the Scottish Cup in 2017 was a highlight.
Her family used to laugh at the fact Hibs were green and Jean had a dislike for the colour. She used to say “ I only watch the white” This would become a standard joke amongst her family especially when they wore the colour.

To say Jean was an integral member of the family is an understatement. She was the one everyone turned to if they needed to know something. And she’s has left a massive gap in the family.

The day that God called your name
It broke my heart in two
But Heaven needed an Angel
And the one he picked was you
I just wish he could have waited
And let you stay with me
But you you have left memories in my heart
And that’s where they’ll always be
I just wish I could rewind the clock
Or make it turn real slow
I could have hugged you one more time
Before you had to go
No matter how much time will pass
I’ll you miss you everyday
Keep shining bright in Heaven
So you can light my way
Love you mum
Love Fiona John
All the family ❤️❤️🌹🌹xxxx

Happy Heavenly Birthday
Mum
Every time I look at the stars
I know that’s where you will be
Shining like you always do
And watching over me
Although the pain I’m feeling
It’s with me everyday
The love you left inside my heart
Will never go away
Life goes on without you
But it will never be the same
And if I had my time once more
I’d do it all again
So when my days are darkest
And I just can’t see the light
I’ll look up at the brightest star
And you’ll be shining bright
Lots of love mum and Happy Birthday ❤️
Love from Fiona and John
And all the family xx❤️❤️xx
💐💐💕💕

🌟I am sending
a dove to heaven
with a parcel on its wings
be careful when you open it
It’s full of beautiful things
Inside are a million kisses
wrapped up in a million hugs
to say how much I miss you
and to send you all my love🌟
I hold you close within my heart
and there you will remain
to walk with me
throughout my life
until we meet again 🌟
Dad xx 🌟
Miss you love Fiona and John
And all the family ❤️❤️

❤️❤️Happy Heavenly Mothers Day ❤️❤️
Mum
I miss you every single day,
Perhaps today more than any other,
I was blessed as blessed can be,
To have called you my Mother,
And though you are not with me,
Your light here still shines on,
So long as I live and breath,
You’ll never be truly gone,
How I wish I could hold you,
So that you could hear me say
Just how much I Love You, Mum
This year on Mothers Day.
Lots of Love Fiona and John ❤️❤️
And all the family 🦋🦋xx
💐💐Miss You 💐💐
