Funeral Poems For Nan

A toast to my nan   

I raise a toast to my dear Nan,
Sadly no longer here,
A person who only knew good,
Who always brought such cheer.

As a lady and a family girl,
She always made us proud,
Like a star that shines in darkest skies,
She would stand out in the crowd.

A hero and a friend to all,
She truly was a queen,
The sadness that’s she gone away,
In so many can be seen.

What I miss most   

Let’s remember our Nan,
Well I called her mum,
She was full of the joys,
Always smiling, such fun.

She was loving and kind,
Always giving and sharing,
And although she suffered,
She remained always caring.

I miss those great hugs,
As do we all,
Or the smell of the flowers,
She kept in the hall.

Theres a gap in my heart   

There’s a gap in my heart that’s growing,
There’s a hole in my life so wide,
You’re gone now and just knowing
that, well Nan the tears I’ve cried.

There’s a space in my life that hollow,
A broken heart that will not mend,
Though I must not sit and wallow,
It’s hard not to, at the end.

So many   

So many years you lived the life,
So many things you’ve seen,
So many smiles that you created,
No you’re gone, so very mean.

So many friends that loved you,
So many to recall,
So many who will honour you,
Thought so special, by us all.

So now your time is over,
So does that mean that all is done,
No, as now we’ll honour you,
Our Nan, Our number one.

Thank you Nan   

Gone but not forgotten,
One day here, now sadly passed.
Dear Nan you really lived a life,
Right to the very last.

Sadly no more hugging,
No more chats and no more tea,
But you gave me such a wondrous gift,
Encouraged me to just to be me.

For that I’m ever grateful,
Always your biggest fan,
To the woman who just made me smile,
I say thank you dearest Nan.

Here is to you, Nan   

Here’s to love and happiness,
Here’s to being kind,
Here’s to hope and all nice things,
Here’s to life as we may find.

Here’s to thoughts and memories,
Here’s to plans of what we’ll do,
Here’s to the best of all of us
oh Nan dear Here’s to you.

3 wishes   

If I only had one wish,
I’d tell you what I’d do,
I ask for 3 more wishes,
And give them all to you.

You might wish to still be here,
But that’s not really your way,
Which is why we celebrate your life,
Every single day.

Maybe it was hard   

Maybe it was hard for you,
But it would never ever show,
Maybe things were tough for you,
But you still smiled, we’d never know.

Maybe some folk were not so kind,
But that didn’t change your view,
Maybe you could have reacted,
But that was never what you’d do.

Memories till the end   

Remember when I was little,
You’d sit me on your knee,
And sing me songs and make me smile,
Time spent so happily.

As I grew a bit bigger,
We were still the best of friends,
And I knew we’d stay like that until
the very very end.

Grandma poem From Grandkids   

We sure will miss you grandma,
Things just won’t be the same,
The sweets you’d secretly pass to us,
Or when you said you’d forgot our names.

We already miss you grandma,
Though it has not been that long,
But even though you’ve gone away,
We’ll still sing your favourite song.
