WOODS: ANTONY (TONY)
18.8.1975 – 31.5.2011
Nine years have now passed since you left me that night
I wish I could wake up and see you standing there.
Then I would know that it was just a nightmare.
Son, I remember when you were small and how you would hold my hand
and as you grew older you became my best friend.
Until that day I see you again
I will search among the stars for my son and best friend
I have 35 years of memories that I will treasure and keep safe in my heart.
We share a bond that time and distance can never break apart.
My mind goes over all that has been.
Why did this happen? Why could I have not seen
For as your mother, I should have known
In my heart and head there is so much pain
A huge empty space in my life now remains.
Forever loved, forever in my heart. Love to Dad (Your beloved Grandfather)
Your Mum (Michele) xx
