Sandra Cunningham.
Daughter to Marjorie
Mother to Kerry.
Sister to Carol, Sylvia and Steve
Sister in law to Charlie, Val and Steve.
Auntie to Sally, Philip, Stephanie, Amanda and me.
Friend too so many
My Auntie – My Friend
People say that I am so much like my Auntie Sandra, if that were true, I would be over the moon.
Sandra was special – really special. She had a heart of gold, she was caring, loyal and precious
to us all.
Sandra went to sleep on the 17th October 2005 after a hard battle against cancer.
Sandra loved her family, especially her daughter Kerry. The day she was diagnosed she was more
concerned about Kerry than she was about her self. That just shows us all what a wonderful mother
she was. I can remember many conversations we had after the diagnoses regarding Kerry. She wanted us
to stick together and take care of each other. That is a promise that I shall keep for the rest of
my life.
After her passing we found the following poem in her handbag,
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glint on snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you wake in the morning hush
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight
I am the soft starlight at night
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there, I did not die.
miss you both so much
miss you both so much
time passes so fast but the pain of losing you never fades.
in my heart always
sleep tight

It's been 3 years since you sadly passed away and I'm only sorry we never met. I just wanted to thank you for giving me Kerry as she is the best friend I could ever wish for and I love her dearly. Rest in peace,

Good Morning Nan and Auntie Sandra,
I hope that you are both enjoying watching over us all up there. As you will know I have finally moved house, it was worth all of the tears and stress.
I miss you both so much, we all do. Keep watching over us, love you forever.

The saddest thing in life to bear
is to want your Nan but she’s not there.
With broken hearts I whisper low
Dear Nan I miss you so.
A Nan is special, so is her name,
without her love, life is never the same.
For as long as I live I will always be glad
for a wonderful Nan,
Like the one I have
My eyes filled up with tears as I heard the news, ,
It never occurred to me, how much I could lose
I find myself wishing that it wasn't real ,
Every time I think about it,
Pain is all I can feel
I lie in bed and cry at night,
I don’t feel any better come morning light..
Tears fall from my eyes, I can barely see.
But my heart tells me that she'll always be with me
I will love and miss her forever,
I promise never to forget her,
Not never,
So for now, I'll wipe my tears away.
And know we'll be together again in heaven, someday
If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.
If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.
If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.
This week is the hardest week of the whole year.
Auntie Sandra,
You went to sleep two years ago, the pain of losing you feels like it only happened yesterday, yet at the same time I also feel like I haven't seen your beautiful face for such a long time. I know you are looking down on us, I talk to you all the time. Missing you more than words can say, thinking of you always, locked in my heart forever.
Nan,
My little lady, you are so precious. This week would have been your 88th birthday. I miss coming to see you so much. Nan, you were always there for me I love you so much. The only confort I have is that both you and Sandra are together again, looking down on us from heaven. Missing you more than words can say, thinking of you always, locked in my heart forever.
