49 years since we first met

December 28 in 1968 was the day Margaret and I first met at Croftspar Avenue, Glasgow. Our story is well documented on my website carrickdrive.co.uk and select blog. http://carrickdrive.co.uk/margaret-abbott/

49 years later it is still a special memory for me especially what happened in the next few days that December. When Margaret passed away in January 2016 it left a big void in my life so young at 64 to be taken into the Lord’s arms.

The memories that are with me and my three boy’s and their families are so special to us. The last two years have been a wonderful period as we have reflected together with her brother David and sister Sandra Margaret’s life despite some trying times as she coped daily with her deliberating condition of MS always with such a positive outlook.

Thanks Margaret will remember you always.

Christmas 2017

Just recently having just completed some Christmas shopping I was driving home the reality that this would be the second Christmas without Margaret hit me. It was one of those moments when you think of your loss at this joyous time of the year.

Margaret loved Christmas meeting up with all her family and having her boys and their families to share the day with her.

The card you can see I thought summed up what this time of the year is really about thinking of those who are no longer with us to share the joys of Christmas and other magical moments in our lives.

So, look up into the night sky at the stars – just choose one it is your star and just say a wee prayer to your loved one and maybe say thanks, we miss you so much and thanks for all the wonderful memories you gave us.

In memory of Margaret
