Valerie Thomas, Val to her friends passed away at 5:36 AM on the morning of September 8th 2006 - she
was only 66 yrs old.
I miss you mom, there isn't a day that goes by without me wanting to pick up the phone and hear your
voice. My dreams are filled with happier times, my days are filled with a longing to see you. My
wish is to turn back time.
What can I say about my mom... she was an awesome lady, a doting grandmother and loving wife.
Nothing was ever to much trouble, she was my friend and was always there when I needed someone to
talk to.
She had suvived breast cancer for 5 years before the dreaded disease came back undetected and spread
to both lungs, liver and bone. She was taken from us a short 6 weeks after being diagnosed.
She died at home with her family embracing her, we talked to her and hopefully comforted her right
up until the end. I thank God she didn't suffer very long.
She leaves behind a husband David, son Paul, daughter Lynne and 3 grandsons, Dewi, Matthew and
Conor. My mom also has 2 wonderful sisters Mary Thorne and Mavis Jones who were both devastated by
her early death.
Before she retired, she worked at the co op in Merthyr where she made some wonderful friends.
I'd like to thanks all those who attended her funeral, your presence was noted, and much
appreciated.
To all my friends in the States, thanks for the kind words and the hugs.
"While Waiting for Thee"
Don't weep at my grave,
For I am not there,
I've a date with a butterfly
To dance in the air.
I'll be singing in the sunshine,
Wild and free,
Playing tag with the wind,
While I'm waiting for thee.
3 yrs mom
Time has flown by, is it really 3 years? Is it really 3 years since I heard your voice, I remember it as if it were only yesterday?
We're moved on, taking memories of you with us, looking at your photo frequently, I have so many around the house.
Miss you mom, I hope you and dad are together...
You have dad back now
I miss you both...
I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
I think of you in silence I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping I have you in my heart

Came upon this site by chance. So sorry to hear of your loss. My mother passed away over 8 years ago now. I still think of her and miss her; some times of the year, anniversaries etc are especially poignant. Just wanted to say, thinking of you

missing you
Today is not such a good day mom, I miss you and I'm not looking forward to another Christmas without you.
poignant day
Today was really hard mam. I didn't think it would be, and I prepared myself to be there for dad, but your birthday had more of an impact than thought.
Now I have to take a deep breath and wait for mother's day.
Missing you
Has it really been 7 months already. There are times I think time is dragging, and other times it seems to be flying by.
I miss you mom, there isn't a day goes by that you aren't in my thoughts. Not a day passes where I'd give anything to talk to you on the telephone.
I love you!
