John Wootton (Jack)

Jack was an ex miner at Silverwood colliery. He lived in Sunnyside and leave his wife Dot, sons John, Kev & Paul. Daughters Wendy, Yvonne & Teresa. Numerous Grandchildren and great grandchildren. He is reunited with son Barry.

Died of bowel cancer, with liver secondary.

What can I say about my dad?
He was everything. His humour and courage knew no bounds. He was dedicated to his family, especially Dot. He was known as "silly Grandad" and the green chair in the corner is lonely without him

IF I DON'T SEE YOU THROUGH THE WEEK I'LL SEE YOU THROUGH THE WINDOW

RIP Dad.....I love you!

Mum followed dad on 2nd July 2008 RIP mum and dad xxxx

Dad... so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.

What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.

What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.

Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.

Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.

Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.

Well dad, it's been a year. Sometimes it seems a year since I talked to you. More often it feels like it was only yesterday, the pain is still raw.
We love and miss you.
No doubt you'll be with us tomorrow, you never could resist a BBQ

A Year

It's been a year since you left the ones you love.
It's been a year that you've been looking down on us from up above.
It's been a year of constant reminder that you're not here.
It's been a year of memories, sorrow and fear.
It's been a year since that horrible night.
It's been a year from when you walked into the light.
It's been a year where we had to be strong everyday.
It's been a year of unspoken words we need to say.
It's been a year since we had to say goodbye.
Where is the good in goodbye when all we do is cry?
It's been a year that has changed all our days.
It's been a year, and we've grown strong in so many ways.
It's been a year where we know you're in a better place.
It's been a year, and we still haven't forgotten your face.
It's been a year of just imagining what it's like up there.
It's been a year since he took you, it just seems so unfair.
It's been a year, but we know you're doing alright.
It's been a year of only seeing you in our dreams at night.
It's been a year, and we want you to know that we love you,

It's been a year.
