Natasha Lea Wallwork
Tasha was my first born, a beautiful child with blonde hair and blue eyes. She was born with a rare
chromosome disorder which meant that through her short life, she was totally adult dependant for all
of her needs.
On Christmas day this year Tasha was taken into hospital with a chest infection and was ventilated
two days later. Fortunately for us she did come off the ventilator after three bouts of pneumonia.
Just as we were getting ready to bring her home, she developed another chest infection and this time
the antibiotics wouldn't work.
Tasha fell asleep forever, peacefully, in my arms on 19th February 2008 at 3.45 a.m. and my last
words to her were "I love you to the Moon and back".
There is a great void in my life now despite my wonderful husband and three beautiful perfectly
healthy children.
Her funeral was beautiful, a gorgeous pink coffin and her family carried her into church with Ronan
Keatings "If tomorrow never comes". We listened to Robbie Williams "Angels". Tasha left church
with Bon Jovi's "Its my Life" which was Tasha's message to all those she left behind to enjoy your
life to the fullest - Life is like an open highway - be free and enjoy.
I miss you so much my darling little angel, but take some comfort knowing you are in a better place,
peaceful and with a body that now works properly for you.
Sweet dreams my angel, you are the brightest star in the sky and we love you so very much.
Goodnight and God Bless you.
Mum

I would like to thank
My husband Simon for his tremendous love, comfort and support during this time.
Nicky and Karen for always being there for me, no matter what.
Richard and Val for their continued love and support.
Lauren, Liam and Jack for being my reason to live.

A tribute to Tasha from my very good friend Nicky. Nicky read this tribute in Church.
Tasha was a very special girl who touched the hearts of everyone that met her. Tasha was loved by
her family and will be sorely missed. In those times of loss and dispair, Helen, Simon, Lauren,
Liam and Jack, you could look to the night sky and see Tasha's star, shining bright. You'll know
it's the one that shines brightest because your mum asked me to get my polish and shine it up so its
nice and sparkly.
I was lucky enough to be with her and her family in her last few days. Tasha fell asleep on a cold
night in February, Helen, Simon and Julia were with her at her bedside. I came soon after and was
privileged to be able to help the lovely nurses prepare Tasha for her journey to Heaven. We brushed
and plaitted her hair, washed her and dressed her in her pyjamas and pink wooly socks and wrapped
her up in her new pink spotty blanket.
Tasha is a bright star in Heaven now and will be watching over the family she left behind. I know a
little piece of Tasha will live on in each of their hearts.
And so farewell for now Tasha Lou. We will see you again soon. But until them watch over us and
sparkle bright in the night so that we know you
are with us always.

A tribute to Tasha from my very good friend Karen. Karen read this tribute in Church.
Tasha
All those of us who were privileged to meet Tasha in her short life are aware of how she touched so
many people's hearts.
Tough your time was short, I will always cherish the times I spent with you. When I whispered in
your ear and touched your face, you always gave me that special smile. Mention chocolate and your
mouth would open and that made me smile.
Tasha you were unique, a beautiful young lady, one of themost special places in my heart is saved
for you.
Pink is your favourite colour and chocholate your favourite food. I smile thinking of you sat on
your pink cloud eating chocolate and listening to your favourite musis, Bon Jovi, well maybe mum's
favourite music.
Sweet dreams my special friend, love you to the moon and back, but then Jack your little brother
would say to the universe.
See you in heaven Tasha x

This is a poem that my son Liam wrote for his big sister two days after she fell asleep and was
included on the Order of Service sheet.
For Tasha
Hey Tash, it's sad without you
We will come every day looking for you,
Yes, on the very brightest star
You will travel far.
We love you to the moon and back
And our caring for you shall never slack
We will remember your pointy fingers
On that star that always lingers.
While you are gone we shall keep track
But, Tasha don't turn your back
I will score a goal just for you at the next match
(And he did score!)
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This was put on Tasha's Order of Service Sheet from her little brother Jack
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Then the traveler in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.
As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark,—
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

Gift of a child (Poem read in church by Tasha's Aunty Sharon) Although my sister Sharon has barely
spoken to me since Tasha went to heaven.
I’ll lend you for a little time
A child of mine, he said,
For you to love her while she lives
And mourn for when she’s gone.
It may be six or thirteen years,
Or twenty-two, or three,
But will you, till I call her back
Take care of her for me?
She’ll bring her charm to gladden you
And should her stay be brief,
You’ll have her lovely memories
As solace for your grief.
I cannot promise she will stay
Since all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn.
I’ve looked this wide world over
In search of teachers true
And from the throngs that crowd life’s lane
I’ve decided upon you.
Now will you give her all your love
Nor think the labour vain
And hate me when I come to call
To take her home again.
I fancy that I heard them say
‘Dear Lord thy will be done,
For all the joy, this child will bring
The risk of grief, we’ll run.
We’ll shelter her with tenderness
And love her while we may
And for the happiness we’ve known
Forever grateful stay.
And should the angels call for her
Much sooner than we planned,
We’ll brave the sadness that we feel
And try to understand.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Don't stand by my grave. A poem read in church by Tasha's little sister Lauren (I am so proud of
you Loz)
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
For 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.
In the soft blush o the morning light
I am the swift bird in flight
Don't stand at myy grave and cry
I am not there
I did not die.

Tears
One tiny gentle tear drop
Fell upon the ground
Pain that it carried
Lost without a sound
One tiny gentle tear drop
Landing on a cheek
Strength it had stolen
Left the owner weak
One tiny gentle tear drop
Settled on a mind
Washes the conscience
Of hurt left behind
One tiny gentle tear drop
Displayed its inner core
Never to be noticed
It trickled through the door
One tiny gentle tear drop
Gave up the fight
To join the company of others
Flowing every night
One tiny gentle tear drop
I will keep with me
Just as a reminder
Of how cruel life can be
By Angie
ROSES GROW IN HEAVEN
If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my Loved ones arms
And tell them they're from me
Tell them I love and miss them
And when they turn to smile
Place a kiss upon their cheeks
And hold them for awhile
Because remembering them is easy,
I do it every day
But there's an ache within my heart
Because I am missing them today...
If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my Loved ones arms
And tell them they're from me
Tell them I love and miss them
And when they turn to smile
Place a kiss upon their cheeks
And hold them for awhile
Because remembering them is easy,
I do it every day
But there's an ache within my heart
Because I am missing them today...
LOVE TO NATASHA & HELEN XX

LOVE ALWAYS XXX.
Life's A Climb - Miley Cyrus
I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming, but
there's a voice inside of my head, tellin' me
"you'll never reach it"
every step I'm takin'
every move I make
feels lost in no direction,
my faith is shakin'
but I gotta keep tryin'
gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
always gonna be an uphill battle
sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
ain't about how fast I get there
ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
it's a climb
The struggles I'm facing
the changes I'm taking
sometimes they knock me down, but
no I'm not breaking
I may not know where, but
these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most
I've just gotta keep goin', and
I gotta be strong
just keep pushing on, but
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
always gonna be an uphill battle
sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
ain't about how fast I get there
ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
it's a climb
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
always gonna be an uphill battle
sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
ain't about how fast I get there
ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
it's a climb
Keep on movin'
keep climbin'
keep faith baby
It's all about, it's all about
the climb
keep the faith, keep your faith!
♥♥ WITH LOVE ♥♥

~~ The Angels ~~
May angels rest beside your door
May you hear their voices sing
May you feel their loving care for you
May you hear their peace bells ring
May angels always care for you
And not let you trip and fall
May they bear you up on angels wings
May they keep you standing tall
May they whisper wisdom in your ear
May they touch you when you need
May they remove you from each trace of fear
May they keep you from feeling greed
May they fill you with their presence
May they show you love untold
May they always stand beside you
And make you ever bold
May they teach you what you want to know
About life here and here-after
May they fill you always with their love
And give you the gift of laughter
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
~~ Angel In My Pocket ~~
I am a tiny angel
I'm smaller than your thumb
I live in peoples pockets
That's where I have my fun
I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect
Though i'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met
Before I was an angel...
I was a fairy in a flower
God himself hand picked me
And gave me angel power
Now god has many angels
That he trains in angel pools
We become his eyes and ears and hands
We become his special tools
And because god is so busy
With way too much to do
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you
When he tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with angel care
Then told me to never leave you
And I vowed always to be there
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
~~ Guardian Angels ~~
When angels sense you need them
and angels always do.....
they come unseen from everywhere
to help and comfort you
they hover close beside you
till all your cares are gone
till they can see you're ready
once again to carry on
Then some of them may fly away
and take their gentle touch
to other hearts that need
the love of angels very much
but one at least stays with you
as your constant friend and guide
for guardian angels never leave
they're always at your side
~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~
Lots Of Love Always ~~ Elaine...x♥x
Dear Jessie - by Madonna
Baby face don't grow so fast
Make a special wish that will always last
Rub this magic lantern
He will make your dreams come true for you
Ride the rainbow to the other side
Catch a falling star and then take a ride
To the river that sings and the clover that
Brings good luck to you, it's all true
Pink elephants and lemonade, dear Jessie
Hear the laughter running through the love parade
Candy kisses and a sunny day, dear Jessie
See the roses raining on the love parade
If the land of make believe
Is inside your heart it will never leave
There's a golden gate where the fairies all wait
And dancing moons, for you
Close your eyes and you'll be there
Where the mermaids sing as they comb their hair
Like a fountain of gold you can never grow old
Where dreams are made, your love parade
Pink elephants and lemonade, dear Jessie
Hear the laughter running through the love parade
Candy kisses and a sunny day, dear Jessie
See the roses raining on the love parade
Your dreams are made inside the love parade
It's a holiday inside the love parade
On the merry-go-round of lovers and white turtle doves
Leprechauns floating by, this is your lullaby
Sugarplum fingertips kissing your honey lips
Close your eyes sleepy head, is it time for your bed
Never forget what I said, hang on you're already there
Close your eyes and you'll be there
Where the mermaids sing as they comb their hair
Like a fountain of gold you can never grow old
Where dreams are made, your love parade
Pink elephants and lemonade, dear Jessie
Hear the laughter running through the love parade
Candy kisses and a sunny day, dear Jessie
See the roses raining on the love parade.
*****SENDING ALL MY LOVE TO YOU IN HEAVEN*****

I am the wind in your hair, with you everywhere
I am the stars in the sky and the sun up high.
I am the waves in the ocean, with your every emotion
I am the snow on the ground, I am all around.
I am the flowers in the meadow, wherever you go
I am the moon at night, please know I'm alright.
I am the bird's sweet song, I am not gone
I am the blossom on a tree, you'll never forget me.
I am the rain on your face, a rainbow's embrace
I am the leaves on the ground, I'll always be around.
I am the fluffy white clouds, innocent and pure
Look all around you, you'll feel me I'm sure.
I am that warm loving feeling, deep in your heart
My memories live on, we'll never be apart.
I am all around you, in all that you see, hear and do
Just reach right out now, I am always here with you.
Love always xXx.
