Stephanie Covill. Fell asleep on 8th June 2006 at Skegness Hospital, Lincs, aged 33 years.
Steph lived in Wainfleet, Lincs after a recent divorce.
Steph had a Gorgeous Son, Jack, who was the apple of her eye.
Steph was diagnosed with Skin Cancer that spread to brain lining just weeks after Jacks Birth. She
was given 3 months to live but bravely fought for 3 & a half years.
Steph was Wheelchair bound due to the severity of her condition.
She never complained, she amazed me so much.
In latter months her Cancer spread to Stomach & pelvis before taking over her body which resulted
in Steph needing Respite Care in Skegness Hospital where she sadly fell asleep.
Steph was a loving Mummy, Daughter, Sister, Sister - in- law, Auntie, Cousin, Niece & Friend.
The funeral was hardest day of my life, the church was full of people who admired my special
sister.
Steph will be greatly missed by all those who loved her so dearly.

Stephs death even though expected shocked the family with it being so quick. My Parents & I were
with her as she took her last breath. I didnt think the tears would ever stop & the pain in my heart
i thought was there to stay.
With every day I think of Steph & the very happy times we shared.
We were more than Sisters we were best friends too.
Steph left my husband & I the greatest gift of all... Her son Jack.
On July 11th 2006 at Boston Court we were granted residency as Steph wished.
I will always do my best for the special little man.
He attended his Mummys Funeral & has been very brave.
Every night he looks to the stars & says Goodnight to his Shining Star.

You are loved & remembered every day.
I wish you were here to kiss your son goodbye & school, to give him a hug when he needs it. You would be so proud. Jack is a very clever little boy who gets more like you every day.
He made you a lovely card & it was all his own work.

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND EVERYONE


Our Lives changed, the very moment you passed away.
We couldn't stop it; there was nothing we could say.
You've touched our lives so deeply to a point you will never know,
We try to think about you when we are feeling down and low.
Sometimes when our day gets hard we will think about your beautiful smile
And if we listen hard enough we will hear your voice after a while.
It's you who give us a reason to go on with our day,
And now if we want to see you we'll bow our heads and pray.
We catch ourselves looking for you still, in the halls and at the front door,
But when we call your name there is no reply any more!
We never thought a day would come where we would be apart,
God has you in his keepings, we have you in our hearts.
Life will go on, but never will be the same,
Your beautiful smile is gone, but it will always remain.
You're our angel from up above.
You'll always be missed, but most importantly... loved.
Just one more minute, God, is all we ask- why can't you give them back;
It seems like such a simple task. We guess people are right when they say God only takes the best,
We know enough now that you're peacefully at rest.

You can shed tears that they are gone,
Or you can smile because they lived,
You can close your eyes and pray that they will come back,
Or you can open your eyes and see all that they have left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see them
Or you can be full of the love that you shared,
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember them and only that they are gone
Or you can cherish the memory and let it live on,
You can cry and close your mind be empty and turn your back,
Or you can do what they would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.

I'm writing this from heaven, where I dwell with God above.
Where there's no more tears or sadness, there's just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy because I am out of sight
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
And I will stay beside you, every day, week and year
And when you're sad I'll still be there to wipe away your tears.
When you think of my life on earth and all those living years
Because your only human their bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry it does relieve the pain
Remember there wouldn't be flowers unless we first had rain.
I wish I could tell you of all that God has planned
But even if I were able to, you wouldn't understand.
When your going down the street and you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps and only half a step behind.
And if you feel a gentle breeze or wind upon your face
Remember it's only me with a loving and soft embrace.

School Play

Hiya Steph,
Its that time of year again... Tissues at the ready...
Jack was given a big part in the play this year, he was chosen to be Santa! He was so excited & learnt all his lines really well.
Then he came down with poorly tummy, bad cough, cold, croaky voice, sore throat... The works !!
BUT....
He said he still wanted to do the play , he was so poorly though.
He did his part really well & i was so proud of him.
Im sure you were there watching over him.
Nanny, grandad, Moy, Carrie & Carly went too.
He has got another production on Thursday evening, so im keeping him off school tomorrow ( Wed) to make sure he is ok.
He is so like you when it comes to illness, refusing to give up!

Love you so much xxxxxxxxxxxxx
