My grandad Neil Mcgivern sadly passed away on the 17th December 2001. He had battled cancer and we thought we had him with us for a while yet but he was rushed to hospital with suspected arthritis. Doctors werent fast enough to realise he cancer was back and was through his body. He suffered through the Sunday night and died in intensive care in Monklands hospital in the early hours of Monday morning. He was a much loved husband to Rita, Father to Karen and Anne and Grandad to Marc, Jonathan, Nicolle, Emma, Aiden and later Abbey who he sadly didnt get to meet. He was such an amazing man in so many ways and the family still havent got over his death. He spent most of his time in St.Monicas chapel where he helped out or in the bookies betting on his horses. He was always happy and never without a smile on his face.
We miss you more and more each day grandad. You have left a gaping hole within us which noone else can ever fill. Its true god only takes the best and when he took you he took the very best. Couldnt have had a better grandad even if I tried. You were everything to us that we could ever need.
Love you so much!! Will see you again one day!

Always causing mishief in a funny way. Wish you got to meet her and likewise. She knows who you are. Grans having a hard time now but as you probably already know her and my mum are talking again.

In Sympathy
So sorry for your loss. My nan passed away last year and it feels like my whole world has been taken away. My thoughts are with you. God bless. I hope you find this poem of comfort, as I have done. x
What is Dying?
A ship sails and I stand watching till she fades on the horizon and someone at my side says 'She is gone'.
Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large now as when I last saw her. Her diminished size and total loss from my sight is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone there are others who are watching her coming over their horizon and other voices take up a glad shout 'There she comes!'
That is what dying is. An horizon and just the limit of our sight.
Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.
Missing You :(
Hi Grandad x Hows Life Up There? Hope You Are Behaving Yourself :) Missing You Lots :) Love You Hundreds xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
