Geraldine died tragically in a car accident on 6th November 2004. She was the driver of a Renault
Clio, when she was hit by a 40ft lorry. Also in the car were our parents Micheal & Sarah and
Geraldine's daughter Christine. Christine was pregnant with Geraldine's first grand-child.
Geraldine has another daughter, Seaneen.

Geraldine has two sisters, Margaret & Marie and one brother Paul. 10 nieces and nephews and one
great-niece. Brothers-in-law John & Rab and Sister-in-law Patti.

She held onto the steering wheel until the moment of impact and in so doing saved all who were in
the car that tragic day. To me and the rest of our family she is a hero.

She worked hard all her life for her girls and will be so sorely missed always by them. Geraldine
was a loving Mother and would have made a brilliant Grand-Mother to Christine's daughter
Abigail.

Her work colleges have lost a Treasured Friend and they'll miss her so very very much.

She was and is a Great Mother, Daughter, Sister, Aunt, Sister-In-Law and Friend.

What the Caterpillar calls the end of the world. The Master calls the Butterfly.

We'll miss you Geraldine today and everyday.



The Rose Beyond The Wall
----------------------------
Near a shady wall, a rose once grew,
Budded and Blossomed in God's free light.
Watered and fed by the morning dew,
Shedding it's sweetness day and night.


As it grew and blossomed fair and tall,
Slowly rising to a loftier height,
It came to a crevice in the wall,
Through there shone a beam of Light.


Onward it crept with added strength,
With never a thought of fear or pride,
It followed the light through the crevice's lenght,
And unfolded itself on the other side.


The light, the dew, the broadening view,
Were found the same as they were before,
And it lost itself in beauties new,
Breathing it's fragrance more and more.


Shall claim of death cause us to grieve
And make our courage faint and fall?
Nay!! Let us faith and hope recieve --
The Rose still grows beyond the wall.


Scattering it's fragrance Far and wide
Just as it did in days of yore,
Just as it did on the other side,
Just as it will forever more!!!!

(From the writings of A.L. Frink)

Friends are like flowers

Each unique in their own way

Put them all together

What a wonderful bouquet

Some are really brilliant

Full of light sharp and clear

While others are more subdued

To both you can adhere

You are a flower in my garden

That makes up my bouquet

My friends you all make

A very impressive display.

love as always Alison xxxxxxxxxxx

I need to tell you something,
That I hope will help you see...
I'm not sad in heaven,
Because God is here with me.
***************************
It was on the day I left you,
That I saw the tears you cried,
But please don't worry about me,
God keeps me by His side.
***************************
I'll save a place here for you,
In heaven next to me...
Where we can be together,
The way you wanted us to be.
***************************
For now, please know I love you,
And dry those tears you cry...
I'll wait for you in heaven,
Where we will never say goodbye.

love as always Alison xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

♥The gift of life is given, then its cruelly snatched away♥
♥It leaves so many broken hearts & sadness, come what may♥

♥Especially now at Christmas, which you loved with all your heart♥
♥The thought of you not being here is tearing us apart♥.

♥And yet we must be thankful, for the happy times we spent♥
♥When love & laughter filled the air, before the magic went♥

♥The pictures are so clear today, of a happy smiling face♥
♥The kind of perfect loveliness, which no-one can replace♥

♥This little Christmas message is to let you know for sure♥
♥The love that’s felt for you lives on, and will forever more.♥

Never think you are on your own
I`d never let you walk alone
When you`re down and want to cry
Let it out, let your tears run dry,
I watch and guide you everyday
So that you can find your way
And when you`re down and in despair
Just call my name and i`ll be there,
Right by your side through good and bad
But you need never feel sad,
Until it`s time for your journey home
Just remember you`re not on your own
We`ll meet again sometime soon
And we`ll be together, like the stars and moon

love as always Alison ; Joey and Lindsay;s mum
