Josie Madeline Grove passed away peacefully with grace and dignity at home in
the arms of her family after a two-and-a-half-year battle with leukaemia. As she
had wished, she died at home with her family.
From the moment she discovered that her treatment had failed she wanted to help
other children with cancer. Through the Strength, Courage and the happiness that
shone from within her she became an inspiration to thousands of people.
She created Josie's dragonfly (a silver pendant )as a lasting legacy so that her
fundraising could continue and grow after she had gone.
Josie's Dragonfly Trust now makes a huge difference to other Children &
teenagers with Cancer
www.josiesdragonfly.org
Her family would like to thank all of those who gave what can only be described
as overwhelming support during her final months and which helped her to carry on
during the difficult times.
It was Josie's wish that she be remembered as the girl who was always
smiling.
She will be dearly missed.
My Darling Josie,
We have said goodbye to your earthly body,
But we know that your spirit still walks beside us,
Holding our hands, laughing and loving us the way you always did.
From the day you were born you lit up our lives
And you shone so brightly that you touched a thousand hearts.
You gave us so much more than we could ever have given you.
June says that you chose us for your family,
You must have known that no-one could love you more.
So Thank you Josie, you made us so very proud.
Now your work here is done. You are safe in Gods arms,
Free to run barefoot in the grass,
To swim in the sea and to float on the breeze.
So have fun sweetheart
You’re going to be a real cool Angel!
Love you more.

So Young Josie
"A life so young released to heaven...left behind we wonder "Why?"
But some are sent among us briefly, some have spirits meant to fly"
God bless beautiful Josie and your loving family xxx

I hold you here in my heart,
And there you will always be,
No-one can ever take your place,
Because you mean the world to me.
How I wish to see you smile,
How I wish to see you again,
Because if you where back here in my life,
I wouldn't feel all this pain.
But nothing now can bring you back,
You have your new home above,
So we will just send plenty of kisses,
Loads of hugs, and lots of love.
Sleep tight Angel.

Precious Child
by Karen Taylor Good
In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
'Cause you are with me still
In my heart, you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
And you are with me still
In my heart you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon,
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart
God knows I want to hold you,
See you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then
In my heart you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart

♡ The Hearts Library..... ♡
By Sarah Blackstone.
Imagine if I was given one moment,
just a single slice of my past.
I could hold it close forever,
and that moment would always last.
Id put the moment in a safe,
within my hearts abode.
I could open it when I wanted,
and only I would know the code.
I could choose a time of laughing,
a time of happiness and fun.
I could choose a time that tried me,
through everything I've done.
I sat and thought about what moment,
would always make me smile.
One that would always push me,
to walk that extra mile.
If I'm feeling sad and low,
if I'm struggling with what to do.
I can go and open my little safe,
and watch my moment through.
There are moments I can think of,
that would lift my spirits everytime.
The moments when you picked me up,
when the road was hard to climb.
For me to only pick one moment,
to cherish, save and keep,
Is proving really difficult,
as I've gathered up a heap!
I've dug deep inside my heart,
found the safe and looked inside,
there was room for lots of moments,
in fact hundreds if I tried.
Am building my own little library,
embedded in my heart,
for all the moments spent with you,
before you had to part.
I can open it up whenever I like,
pick a moment and watch it through,
My little library acts as a promise,
I'll never ever forget you

† NEVER FORGOTTEN.†
† You are the Angel who I cherish,
† So dearly in this heart of mine,
† The one who makes my day brighter,
† By making my whole world shine.
† During all the darkest moments,
† When my skies turn cloudy and grey,
† You're the one who touches my heart,
† And makes everything seem okay.

GOODNIGHT AND GOD BLESS
I had a lovely dream last night
I wish it had come true.
I travelled on a shooting star
and made my way to you.
You welcomed me with open arms
and held me oh so tight.
You took me to a wonderful place
and what a beautiful sight.
The angels were singing quietly
as you took me by the hand.
Into God's Beautiful Garden
a wonderous and pleasant land.
You kissed me softly on the lips
I held you close to me.
I didn't want to let you go
I couldn't set you free.
You told me that you loved me
and would for ever more.
But that I must go back now
and you led me to Heaven's Door.
I floated down upon a cloud
My eyes were filled with tears.
You waved goodbye once again
and said wait a few more years.
As I awoke this morning
and I lay there in my bed
I couldn't help but wonder
at all things you said.
I know you are at peace now,
and I am still your loving wife
I thank the dear Lord up above
for bringing you into my life.
So when my time is over
and I lay my head to rest
I'll go back on that shooting star
To the one I love the best.
