"No-one heard the footsteps of the angels drawing near,
Who took from earth to heaven the Mum I loved so dear.
She hasn't really left me, nor has she travelled far,
Just entered God's beautiful garden and left the door ajar."

This memorial is dedicated to our loved one Sheila Yvonne Masters (nee Wiles) who was born on
January 29th 1945 and passed away so unexpectedly on December 10th 2005. Beloved wife, mum, nanny,
daughter, sister, aunt and friend. Loved and missed by all. We will remember her forever.
Mum lived all her life in Peterborough. At the age of 17 she met my Dad, Bill, and they married two
years later. My brother, Paul, was born on February 15th 1966 and I was born on February 11th 1969.
Mum's family meant the world to her and she always did everything she could for us.

"A golden heart stopped beating,
Two willing hands are still.
The one who did so much for us
Is resting at God's will."

When Paul and I were young Mum stayed at home, but eventually started work at Marshfields School
where she helped to look after the children at lunch time. As was typical of Mum, if she could do
anything else to help out then she always did. She loved her work and found it a pleasure looking
after the children. She gave up work when my Dad retired in 1999.
Mum adored her granddaughter, my daughter Aimee. Sadly Mum passed away when I was six months
pregnant with my son, Jack. Mum was so excited at the thought of having another grandchild,
especially when we found out I was expecting a little boy. It breaks my heart to think that they
will never know each other.

"A wife, a mother, a nanny too,
This is the legacy we have from you.
You taught us love and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stonger person would be hard to find,
And in your heart you were always kind.
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife, not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest.
So go in peace, you've earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts we'll eternally keep."

Mum also leaves behind her own mother, brothers Aubrey and Malcolm, and sisters Jean, Susan and
Judith. Reunited in heaven with her Dad, brother Peter and sister Diane.

"We little knew that morning that God would call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you but you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you the day God called you home.
You left us precious memories; your love is still our guide,
And although we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one the chain will link again."

Mum was taken ill on the morning of December 9th 2005. She and Dad were supposed to be coming over
to spend the day with me but just after 10.30am Dad phoned to say they wouldn’t be coming because
Mum was in hospital - she’d had a heart attack. To say I was shocked is an understatement and I
burst in to tears. Dad told me not to worry because Mum was OK but he was only saying this to keep
me calm. I was six months pregnant and had a few problems with my blood pressure. I phoned my
husband at work and we drove over to Peterborough District Hospital. Dad said that Mum had been
taken ill just after breakfast. She complained of a pain in her jaw and chest which gradually got
worse and worse and she also started being sick. Dad dialled 999 and an ambulance rushed Mum to
hospital where, on her arrival at A&E, she had to be resuscitated. She had suffered a heart attack
and was in a very serious condition. When we arrived the doctor explained that the blood clot which
had caused the heart attack had created a hole in mum’s heart and this is what was making things
more serious. Mum would need to be transferred to Papworth Hospital. At that point she was lucky to
still be alive. The ambulance which was supposed to be collecting Mum had been delayed (bad weather
had caused several accidents) and at one point I heard the doctor on the phone complaining about the
delay, saying the longer the wait the more Mum’s heart was dying. This isn’t a phone call I
wanted to overhear. Eventually the ambulance arrived and after making arrangements for our daughter
to be looked after when she finished school we drove over to Papworth with Dad (he wasn’t allowed
in the ambulance with Mum).
After being assessed by a doctor after Mum’s arrival at Papworth we were told that she would need
to be moved to Critical Care. She needed surgery to repair the damage to her heart, but if this was
done too soon the damaged tissue would still be too soft to be repaired, and leaving it too long
could create more problems. He said the only way to judge when it was the right time for the surgery
to be completed was to monitor her constantly. Mum would need an angioplasty to keep the damaged
artery open until surgery. Mum hated hospitals and any medical procedures so this must have been so
awful for her. Soon after this it was suspected that mum had suffered a mild stroke, although it was
only ever mentioned in passing. No-one sat down with us and said any more than that. Dad was going
to stay at the hospital but as Mum seemed reasonably settled we came home, but within a couple of
hours we had to drive all the way back to Papworth. A nurse had phoned to say that Mum had gone down
hill quite dramatically. The heart problem was stable but the stroke was causing problems.
I wasn’t prepared for how we found Mum when we got back to Papworth. She had been rolled over on
to her right side and wasn’t moving. Dad said that after we left she soon lost all feeling down
her left side. She then lost the ability to speak and then to see. Her face was paralysed with her
eyes half open. My poor Mum. It is an image that will stay with me for the rest of my life. Sadly
the heart attack and stroke were too much for her body to cope with. We sat there watching her die.
No more could be done to save her.
At 1.45am on Saturday 10th December 2005 Mum left us. Me, Dad and my husband, John, were with her as
she passed away. I hope she knew we were there, telling her how much we love her and would miss her.
I lost part of myself that day and in its place is an overwhelming feeling of loss and grief.
Nothing will ever take that feeling away.

"I sat and watched you breathing,
The whole room filled with gloom.
I couldn't believe that grieving
Would follow far too soon.
I sat and watched you dying;
How could this be so real?
Inside my heart was breaking;
Pain was all that I could feel.
I sat and watched you fading;
Your life was ebbing away.
In an instant my world was changing;
How I wanted you to stay.
I sat and watched you die Mum;
It's your time for eternal rest;
But God has called you home too soon,
I guess he only takes the best.
Inside my heart is aching
And the pain still lingers on.
Your life was not for taking;
I can't accept that you have gone."

Mum was such a warm, kind and caring person and would go out of her way to help anyone. She was the
best mother anyone could hope to have. I'll never get over losing her and I miss her with all my
heart. Wanting and needing someone who is no longer there is an unbearable feeling. I have never
cried so many tears.

"A beautiful nature, loyal and true.
One in a million dear Mum were you.
Never selfish, always kind.
These are the memories you left behind."

A prayer for you Mum:
Open your arms to welcome her;
Wrap them around her to keep her safe.
Find somewhere beautiful for her to rest;
A peaceful place so that she can sleep undisturbed.
Take away all her worries and pain;
Allow her stresses and strains to be left behind.
Let her know how much I love her and miss her;
Memories are all I have left.
Dear God, please take good care of her;
You took her from us far too soon.

SLEEP PEACEFULLY WITH THE ANGELS, MUM. I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'VE GONE.

☆ ♥ ☆ It's Hard To Face Tomorrow ☆ ♥ ☆
☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆
It's hard to face tomorrow,
When someone you love has gone,
Its harder still to realise,
that our lives still go on.
The heartbreak and the sorrow
Might not always show,
People say it lessens
How little do they know,
They say we have our memories,
But they don't understand,
You cannot kiss a memory's face,
Or hold a memory's hand.
I want to send a message,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to live without.
So rest in peace dear angel,
And thanks for all you've done,
I pray that God has given you,
The crown you've truly won.

FORGET ME NOT
Forget me not, for I am there
In the beat of your heart,
On the wing of your prayer.
Forgive me my parting and leaving you thus,
A joyous reunion is waiting for us!
Continue to strive toward your goal and be brave.
Know that my love did not stop at the grave.
My spirit is with you through good times and bad.
I share all the joys and the sorrows you have had.
Feel my presence within your next breath
And realize there is no distance in death.
Ask for my help and I will answer your call.
Reach for my hand when you stumble and fall.
Run the last mile with a smile on your face.
My arms will be waiting when you finish the race.
Always remember, my love is right th
In the beat of your heart,
On the wing of your prayer.

☆•☆ A MESSAGE FROM YOUR ANGEL ☆•☆
♥ I'd Rather See You Smiling ♥
( Alan Pemberton)
You must not think that I have gone
Please don't grieve or pine
I'd rather see you smiling
Laughing - working - looking fine
Death is an exciting key
Which opens many doors
It leads us into other worlds
Quite similar to yours
Life is not an accident
Death is not the end
God designed a mystery
Life and death do blend
So do not think that I have gone
Please don't brood or pine
I'd rather see you smiling
Laughing - working - looking fine
☆•☆ A TENDER REPLY ☆•☆
♥ I Promise ♥
(Author Unknown)
I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
I promise I will remember
How to live and how to play.
I promise that I'll dry my tears
When the heartache goes away.
I promise that it won't take years
But I need another day.
I promise that I'll live my life
As you would want me to.
I promise when I'm facing strife
I'll face it straight and true.
I promise I will endeavour
To do the best I can each day.
I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.

The sky is filled with Angels
With puffy lacy wings
The remnants of God's beauty
With treasures they now bring
Each one of them a Guardian
That travels in the sky
To watch throughout eternity
Their parents from on high
Smiles that come from Angels
They fall like crystal rain
Eases earthly burdens
Lifting all life's pain
Halos so astounding
That glitter gold each day
Following their loved ones
In such a perfect way
Wings in gentle breezes
That fall from up above
Kissing every parent
With everlasting love
Angels soar through heaven
With everlasting light
Looking down from heaven
Saying their "goodnights"
Kissing all who loved them
So gently on the face
This life's tender mercy
Each parent can embrace
Wings and shiny halos
Travel from on high
Surrounding all their loved ones
They never say good-bye.

ITS HARD TO HIDE A BROKEN HEART.........
HOW CAN ANYONE SEE MY BROKEN HEART
THEY WOULD NOT KNOW WHERE TO START
THIS IS NOT SOMETHING ANYONE CAN SEE
MY HEART IS HIDING INSIDE OF ME.
I SURE THAT IF IT COULD BLEED IT WOULD
PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF ARE MISUNDERSTOOD
WE ARE ALL HURTING AND IN SO MUCH PAIN
LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN.
THE TEARS OF SADDNESS I CANNOT HELP BUT WEEP
MY BROKEN HEART IS MINE ALONE TO KEEP
ONLY ANOTHER PERSON LIKE MYSELF WOULD KNOW
JUST HOW HARD IT IS TO LET OUR REAL FEELINGS SHOW........
