DARREN CARL BALMFORTH aka BARNEY xxxxxxxxx BRAVE TIL THE END. xxxxxxxxxxx
Darren was sadly taken away from us on the 18th october 2008 after a short battle
with cancer he passed away peacefully surrounded by family at st.gemmas hospice.Darren was diagnosed
with cancer in April 2008 after going to casualty,which was a big shock as he was a healthy young
man. We married in the H.D.U in St James hospital in April as he was ill and the doctors told us if
Darren went into Cardiac arrest,they wouldn't be able to revive him.Darren had a course of
chemotherapy to prolong his life,but sadly he lost his brave fight for life after just six months.
Darren loved playing computer games and listening to music especially Oasis and Ian brown.He was a
fan of The Sopranos .Darren played golf with our son . Darren was a big Leeds United fan ,he went to
matches with our son when he could.We always said we would grow old together,but sadly how wrong we
were,in time we will be together again.Darren and I got together 12 years ago after disasterous
relationships,i had given up,but then i met Darren and its true there is your perfect soulmate out
there and I had found it in Darren,we were constantly by each others side,only twice when i went
abroad with the kids and Darren wouldn,t get on a plane,I jokingly called him Mr T (I aint getting
on no plane)lol,but both times i was away all i could do was miss him, i wasn,t homesick,i was
Darren sick.Darren was the funniest person i have ever met,he had me in stitches all the time.I have
never met a better person than Darren,he was genuinely a nice person which nobody could ever say a
bad word about him.I can,t believe Darren has been taken away from me,my heart is ripped to pieces.I
want to thank you for coming into my life,which should of been forever,but what time we had together
is precious and full of happy memories and thankyou for taking the kids as your own you'll always be
daddy to them. I love you Darren with all my heart,always have and always will.Until we are together
again,you'll never be off my mind.Love your wife Carla xxxxxxxx
DARREN BALMFORTH My darling Darren,
Since you’ve gone first and I remain,
To walk the road alone,
I live in memory’s garden, Dear,
With happy days we’ve known.
Since you’ve gone first and I remain,
One thing I’d have you do,
Walk slowly down the path of death,
For soon I’ll follow you.
I want to know each step you take,
That I may know the same,
For some day, down that lonely, road,
You’ll hear me call your name.
Your loving wife, Carla

GOOD MORNING BEAUTIFUL ANGEL. XxX
~ There Is A Place ~
♥****♥****♥****♥****♥****♥
There is a place high up above
Where Angels dwell, so full of love;
Soft music plays and rainbows fair
Swirl round the mansion God prepared.
There is much laughter, joyous glee
In this great place we all shall be.
And in the glorious days to come,
The Angels greet their loved ones home,
They wrap their wings around so tight,
And guide them up into the light.
This paradise waits for all who pray,
For those that believe in God, come what may,
For death is no more in His Heaven above,
Just happiness dwelling in sweet Angel's love.

Slip too quickly from our hands,
Snowflakes, rainbows, childhood,
Castles in the sand.

Tributes For Week Starting 16th November
FOR MONDAY
Sadly missed along life's way,
Quietly remembered every day,
No longer in our life to share,
But in our hearts you’re always there.
FOR TUESDAY
I sit and wonder every day,
Why the Lord chose to call you away,
I think He saw you needed rest,
He only takes the very best.
FOR WEDNESDAY
Everyday in some small way,
Memories of you come our way,
Though absent, you are always near,
Still missed, loved, always dear.
FOR THURSDAY
Resting where no shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep he awaits us all;
God will link the broken chain,
When one by one we meet again.
FOR FRIDAY
Surrounded by friends
Yet all alone
The one I loved
God has called home
The hugs of friends
Helps ease the pain
And I know my loss
Is my loved one's gain
But tears now flow
Across my face
As I long for just
One more embrace
Then comfort comes
And I see Christ's face
He hugs my loved one
And I feel God's grace.
FOR SATURDAY
Please don't sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears...
It's far away from hunger
And hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Heaven
With the Master at my side.
My life on earth was very good,
As earthly life can go,
But Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know..
.
My heart is filled with happiness
And sweet rejoicing, too.
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.
FOR SUNDAY
When I come to the end of the day
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little, but not too long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love we once shared,
Miss me but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone.
It's all a part of the maker's plan,
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds -
Miss me, but let me go.

Footsteps of Angels
✻ ❃ ✻ ❃ ✻ ❃ ✻ ❃ ✻ ❃ ✻ ❃
When your heart climbs a mountain,
And your soul finds a sweet peace.
Then you hear footsteps of angels,
You're heart beat is increased.
When Your eyes see what you have been,
And changes now and then.
You have heard footsteps of angels,
As you begin to grin.
Your heart melts at the site of a blind child,
Bending down, giving him a hand.
You feel a lift from heaven,
And join in with their band.
When the sea calls your name,
As you stare out over it's shore.
Admiring it's beauty and knowing what it is for,
It is really angels at your heart's outside door.
When life you give for all you care,
And time for you is late.
Just listen for angels footsteps,
They will carry you to heaven's gate.

I opened up a box one day
What treasures did I find!
Letters and some photographs
Of days we left behind
I drifted back to yesterday
The thought was oh, so clear
For just a moment, anyway
It felt like you were here
I smile when I think of you
Sometimes I cry so much
I'm all alone without you now
I long to feel your touch
But God had other plans for you
An Angel he did find
So now my box of memories
Is all that's left behind.
Love Always Julie XXX

Heaven
If we could visit heaven,ღ♥ღ
Even for a day,ღ♥ღ
Maybe for a moment,ღ♥ღ
The pain would go away,ღ♥ღ
I'd put my arms around you,ღ♥ღ
And whisper words so true,ღ♥ღ
That living life without you,ღ♥ღ
Is the hardest thing to do.ღ♥ღ
No matter how we spend our days,ღ♥ღ
No matter what we do,ღ♥ღ
No morning dawns or evening falls,ღ♥ღ
When we don't think of you xx.ღ♥ღ

I thought I saw your face today, in the sparkle of the morning sun.
And then I heard the angel say, "Their work on earth is done."
I thought I heard your voice today, then laugh your hearty laugh.
And then I heard the angel say, "There's peace dear one at last."
I thought I felt your touch today, in the breeze that rustled by.
And then I heard the angel say, "The spirit never dies."
I thought I saw my broken heart, in the crescent of the moon.
And then I heard the angel say, "The Lord is coming soon."
I thought that you had left me, for the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say, "They left you with their love."
I thought that I would miss you so, and never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say, "They're with you every day."
The sun, the wind, the moon, the stars, will forever be around,
Reminding you of the love you shared, and the peace they've finally found
Love to you Always Angel x x x x
For you Darren my precious Husband xxx
We’ve shared our lives these many years.
You’ve held my hand; you’ve held my heart.
So many blessings, so few tears
Yet for a moment, we must part.
The memories you’ve given me
Are times I’ve shared with my best friend
I’ll hold them, love. right here they’ll be
Until we share our lives again.
T.C. Ring
Love you so much Darren,always have and always will xx

My angel in the sky,
who comes to me in dreams at night.
You left me without a single word,
but when I close my eyes,
your voice is heard.
Telling me you'll be alright,
that you're not scared,
you're in the light.
And now whenever I need you near,
I close my eyes and you appear.
Your my angel in the sky,
who comes to me in dreams at night.
To let me know that your alright,
Your with God,
Your in the light.
