In memory of all the people that lost their lives in the recent gales. From those lost at sea to those who suffered unfortunate accidents close to home.

From The Guardian - 18th January 2007...

Up to nine people were killed today as severe storms battered the UK, causing transport chaos and damage which will run to millions of pounds.
Most of the fatalities were caused by falling trees, collapsing walls or vehicles crashing in high winds.

Among the deaths thought to be linked to the weather was that of a two-year-old boy who was killed in Belsize Park, north London, when a 2 metre-high wall collapsed on him as he walked down a road.

One man was killed after being blown into metal shutters in an industrial area of Strangeways, Manchester. An elderly man in the Wirral, Merseyside, died of a suspected heart attack while working outside on a fence in the stormy weather. Two schoolboys in Merseyside were badly injured after being crushed under trees.
There were heavy downpours and winds reaching 90mph across many parts of the country and heavy snowfall in northern areas.

Roads, rail services, airports and ferry crossings were all affected, and a crew of 26 had to be winched to safety from a sinking cargo ship off the coast of Cornwall.

A woman was crushed to death in Marple, near Stockport, Greater Manchester, when a wall collapsed on top of her.

There were two deaths in neighbouring Cheshire, where it was thought that a man who was declared dead at Leighton hospital had been hit by a falling tree, police said. A male lorry driver was also killed when another vehicle was blown into the lorry's path on the A55, near the Forte Posthouse hotel in Chester.

Another lorry driver was killed in North Yorkshire when his vehicle left the road and overturned in high winds on the A629 Skipton western bypass.

In the Midlands, the managing director of Birmingham airport, Richard Heard, 54, was killed on his way to work when a large branch smashed into his car windscreen on the B4373 near Bridgnorth, Shropshire, at 5.45am.

Further south, in Streatley, west Berkshire, a passenger in a Ford Fiesta died shortly after midday when a tree fell on to the car, police said.

From Guardian Unlimited...

At least 42 people across Europe are thought to have been killed by yesterday's storms, which brought hurricane force winds to a number of countries.
Britain suffered the highest toll, with the number of deaths rising to 14, as the worst storm in 17 years resulted in destruction and transport chaos in much of the country.

The most recent victims of the extreme weather include a man killed by a garage canopy falling on him as he refuelled his car in Bamber Bridge, near Preston.

From The Guardian...

Gusty weather continued to claim victims and add to the damage toll yesterday, as the country began to limp back to normal. The number of dead rose to 13 as the Meteorological Office confirmed that the storm was Britain's worst for 17 years with the highest windspeeds topping 100mph at Huntingdon.

♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.♥*•.

I see tears fall down your face
When your thoughts have turned to me.
Just know that I’m in heaven,
With my Lord, who’s set me free.

No pain or sadness do I feel,
For God is by my side.
The beauty here in Heaven
Is now where I reside.

I know it’s hard for you to cope
For you can’t feel my touch.
But every moment, I can see
And love you very much.

When you are at your lowest
And feel you can’t go on,
Look towards the heavens
The light will be turned on.

Talk to me, just like you did
On earth when I was there.
You see, I’m not so far away …
Only as far as a prayer.

And when it’s time for you to join
Me up in Heaven above.
It’s then that you will realize,
The Golden Place of love.

For here there is no sadness,
Just everlasting light.
Someday we will be joined again,
When it’s time to take your flight.

When I had to leave you

Look up to the Heavens

Held gently in God's loving arms
Until we meet again.☆

And what each other near
You shine your light upon the earth

When we seem so far apart
To shine our lights together

Over the rainbow, beyond the stars
In that beautiful garden above

Surrounded by loved ones, who went on before
Now at peace in God's perfect love

I know you'll be waiting, till my work is done
For there's more here on earth I must do

There's comfort in knowing when God calls my name
I'll cross over the rainbow .. to you

sweet dreams babes

When you feel Lonely
When a person you love passes away
Look to the night sky on a clear day.
The star that to you, appears to be bright,
Will be your loved one,
Looking upon you during the night.
The lights of heaven are what shows through
As your loved one watches all that you do.
When you feel lonely for the one that you love,
Look to the Heavens in the night sky above.
~ Author Unknown


as time goes by with outyou
and days turn into tears,
they hold so many memories,
and so many years
