The Companionship of Trees

The place occupied in our lives by the company of trees is closely knit into our relationships with Mother Nature. Most of us at some time have known what it was to develop a love-tie with a particular tree. It was the hawthorn you passed every morning as you made your way through the local park. It was the lilac tree in your own back garden which every Spring used to tap on your shoulder with a spray of purple blossom, as if drawing attention to itself in this its "finest hour", or there was that old oak from which you drew new strength when the wind was wild and the winter bleak. These were more than companions, they had become friends, always there to hold out their own gift to meet your special need.

In loving memory of
Joe Kain
Born 9 December 1927
Died 24 July 2006

In tears we saw you sinking
We watched you fade away
Our hearts were almost broken
You fought so hard to stay
But when we saw you sleeping
So peacefully free from pain
We could not wish you back dad
To suffer that again.
Your presence ever near us
Your love remains with us yet
You were the kind of dad
Your children will never forget
Love always Julie, David & Peter 

In loving memory of a dearly loved sister, aunt & friend
Margaret Bywater
1920 - 2002

To Dearest Maggs

We thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new
We thought about you yesterday
And Days before that too.
We think of you in silence
We often speak your name
Now all we have is memories
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake
With which we’ll never part.
The care and love you gave us
Will forever be in our heart. 

In memory of
Sarah Hannah Carter formerly Stocks

1888 - 1974

Brought up nearby in the Shoulder of Mutton Yard, Lockwood - she knew and loved this park well.  She often brought us, as children, to see the park and walk back via Lockwood into town.  Her later life was spent in Birkby - where her daughter and grand-daughters lived.

Fondly remembered always
