Margaret Rose Fletcher was born 13th Febuary 1936. She was the
only child of Arthur Pratt and Annie Ward. Margaret died of Cancer on the
5th of August 1991 aged 55 years.
Margaret married My Dad Mervyn Samuel Fletcher on the 28th September 1957. My mom was born in New
Invention,Willenhall and lived there all her Life.
When leaving school she did clerical work in a fruit warehouse until getting married,she then became
a housewife.
They had 2 daughters Theresa and Myself Sonia also 4 grandchildren who sadly my mom never got to
see.My sister was 7 months pregnant with my mom and dad's 1st Grandchild when my mom died.
My Mom was diagnosed with cancer of the ovaries early 1991 and battled this cruel disease so bravely
until she could fight no more and passed away at 11am on Monday 5th August that year.
The year before my mom had gone back to school to get her G.C.S.E's which she passed with
flying colours she hoped to study at university the following year.She never got her dream......
My mom was devoted to our dad and her children and fiercely protective of us.She could be quite
strict but she would never let anyone hurt us.
My Mom was such a strong lady,She even planned her own funeral and choose the hymns and readings.She
was only worried how her family would cope without her, in particular her mom my grandma who
survived her only child by 8 years.
My dad was murdered in 2004 and my only solace is that i know they are together...... Reunited
Eternally xxxxxxx

I'VE LISTENED TO THE 'FOOTPRINTS' POEM
A MILLION TIMES OR MORE
OF HOW WHEN ONLY ONE SET SHOWS
UPON THE SANDY SHORE
IT IS THE LORD CARRYING US
AND TAKING ON OUR LOAD
AND HIS ARE THE ONLY SET
OF FOOTPRINTS THAT SHOWED
BUT WHAT IF WHEN WE LOOK
THERE ARE NO FOOTPRINTS TO BE FOUND?
ALL WE SEE IS PLAIN AND SIMPLE
SAND UPON THE GROUND.
NO IMPRINTS SHOWING THAT OUR LORD
IS CARRYING US THROUGH LIFE
HELPING US WHEN WE FEEL
WE CAN NOT HANDLE STRIFE.
WHERE IS MY LORD NOW THAT I'VE FALLEN
AND CAN'T SEEM TO GET BACK UP?
SO TIRED AND LONELY
TRYING TO DEAL WITH WHAT SEEMS
AN OVERFLOWING CUP.
WHERE ARE THOSE FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND
TO TELL ME HE'S RIGHT THERE?
HELPING ME WITH PROBLEMS AND SHOWING
THAT HE REALLY CARES.
DOES HE HAVE FAVORITES,OH NO,
PLEASE TELL ME THAT'S NOT SO!
BUT WHY DOES LIFE SEEM EASIER
FOR SOME PEOPLW THAT I KNOW?
AND SOMETIMES I JUST SCREAM OUT LOUD
ALTHOUGH IT SEEMS IN VAIN
BUT IT OFTEN GETS HARDER EACH DAY
TO DEAL WITH ALL THIS PAIN.
AND THEN IT DAWNED ON ME
AS I REALIZE HOW SIMPLE COULD IT BE,
I WONDER WHY I WAS SO BLIND
THAT I TRULY DID NOT SEE
IT MUST HAVE BEEN A LIGHTING BOLT
THAT ONE DAY GAVE ME LIGHT.
CAUSE OUT OF THE CLEAR BLUE SKY
I FINALLY REGAINED MY SIGHT.
I SAW A FLUFFY WHITE CLOUD
SHAPED LIKE AN ANGEL DEAR,
THAT HELPED ME UNDERSTAND
AND SEE THINGS OH SO CLEAR,
THAT WHEN I SAW NO FOOTPRINTS
AND SO OFTEN WONDERED WHY,
MY LORD CARRIED ME ON ANGELS WINGS
WHEN HE DECIDED TO FLY.
(LYNDY ANGEL
Remember
Remember me with a smile
Now my life on this earth is done
My dreams have all been fulfilled
My new life has begun
Remember me with a smile
When grief may cause you to weep
One day we will laugh once again
When our heavenly meeting we keep
Lets be thankful we shared precious love
Keep the memories warm for a while
Let them bring peace to your heart
Remember me - with a smile

Mom,
I dreamed of you last night.
You stretched out your arms and hugged me tight.
And just for a moment there it seemed
That your touch was real, not just a dream.
I had talked to God just hours before
And told Him 'Lord, there is nothing more
That could satisfy or comfort me
Than for my mother's face to see.'
God heard my prayer and through His grace Mom,
I looked upon your face.
I felt your hug, your love, your touch -
The very things I needed so much.
There is a void in my life still -
A place that no one else can fill.
But precious memories I have of you -
And I have God to lean on too.
So Mom, until that glorious day
We walk hand in hand in Heaven I'll pray
That once again through God's loving grace
I'll feel your touch and see your face.

So sorry for your loss.
Dear Sonia, I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mam, she sounds like a lovely lady.As you say, at least your Mam and Dad are now reunited up in Heaven. I can't imagine how it feels to have lost both parent's, losing my Dad has been bad enough. Cancer is such a cruel disease,for the person suffering from it and also all their loved ones watching them go throught the pain and indignity of such a terrible disease.I hope it comforts you to know that all your friends on GTS are here for you at anytime to give you comfort and loving support. May your lovely Mam and Dad rest in eternal peace. Take care, Angela xxxxxxxxxxxx
MUM X
I'm so sorry for your loss my mother died of cancer too and she also never got to see all her grandchildren but I'm sure our lovely mums are our very own guardian angels and as much as they looked after us here on earth they still look after us now they are in heaven. God bless you...X
