Eric Snell Known as "Mush"
Died 28th August 2006
Age 67 years
Retired Bus driver
Lived in Tredegar, Gwent
Loving father to Tina, Kieron & Linda, and loving granch to Terri, Joel, Shay, Darren & Natalie
Was Diagnosed with Acute Meyloid Leukemia in begining of August 2006 and was transfered to University Hospital in Cardiff where he came down with a number of infections and was in the intensive care unit for the last 2 weeks of his life, we all sat at his bedside to say goodbye and he closed his eyes for the final time at 11pm on 28th august 2006.
Our Tribute to him:
We were a very close family, and if we did not see him, he would be on the phone, we miss hearing his voice,
He was a fun loving father and granch who was a character. He was outgoing and loved going out to the pub every weekend. He was the life and soul of any party and once met never forgotton!
He was taken away from us too soon before his time, we miss him every day and life is not the same without him.
"If love could have saved him, he would have lived forever"
Beside your grave we often stand,
with heart both crushed and sore,
silent till the sweet words come,
not lost, but gone before,
god knows how much we miss you,
he counts the tears we shed,
and whispers he only sleeps,
your loved one is not dead.
So we'll be brave dear Dad & Granch,
and pray to god each day,
and when he calls us home to you,
your smile will guide the way.
Your ever loving children Linda, Tina & Kieron x x x x
Your presence if ever near us,
your love remians with us yet,
you were the kind of grancha,
your grand children will never forget.
Your precious grandchildren Terri, Joel Shay, Darren, & Natalie x x x x
God saw u getting weary,
the hill too steep to climb,
he put his arms around you,
and whispered peace be thine
FROM YOUR HEARTBROKEN DAUGHTER, LINDA X X X X
Months have passed, we feel the pain,
your absence is heartfelt mush,
your daughters and son, and grandchildren too,
the entire family are missing you.
Your in our hearts, not a day goes by,
when your smile, your laughter,
brings a tear to the eye.
Our loss bears pain,
but the memories dear,
for we know that our dad is very near.
We know we'll see you again some day,
we dearly love you more than words can say.
All our love, always and forever,
Linda, Terri, Joel & Shay x x x x
It only takes a little space to write how much we miss you,
but it will take the rest of our lives to forget the way we lost you.
I see the countless Christmas trees
Around the world below.
With tiny lights like heavens stars
reflecting on the snow,
the sight is so spectacular
please wipe away your tears
for i am sharing Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year
I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
but the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir here.
I have no words to tell your
the joy their voices bring
Its far beyond description
to hear the angels sing
I know how much you miss me
i see the pain within your heart
but i am not so far away
We really aren't apart
So be happy for me loved ones
you know i hold you dear
and be glad I'm spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year
After all `love` is the gift
more precious than pure gold
It was always more important
in the stories Jesus told
Please love and keep each other
as my Father said to do
For i can't count the blessings
or the love he has for you
So have a gentle Christmas
and wipe away those tears
for i am spending Christmas
with the Lord this year.
WITH LOVE FROM TINA ALWAYS !
I'M SPENDING CHRISTMAS WITH JESUS THIS YEAR
(unknown author)
I see the countless Christmas trees
Around the world below.
With tiny lights, like heaven's stars
Reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away that tear.
For I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs
That people hold so dear.
But the sounds of music can't compare
With the Christmas choir up here.
For I have no words to tell you
The joy their voices bring.
For it is beyond description
To hear as angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart
For I am spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.
I can't tell you of the splendor
Or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas
With our Savior, face to face?
I 'll ask Him to light your spirit
As I tell Him of your love
So then pray one for another
As you lift your eyes above.
So please let your hearts be joyful
And let your spirit sing
For I'm spending Christmas in heaven
And I'm walking with the KING!

THINKING OF YOU
FAITH isnt anything you can feel or touch ,
You feel it in your heart.
It keeps you trying when others have given up .
It keeps you believing in the goodness of others
And helps you find it ......
FAITH is trusting in a power greater than yourself
And knowing this power will carry you through anything
And having the courage to stand up
For what you believe in .............
FAITH is peace in the midst of a storm
Determination in the midst of adversity .
And safely in the midst of trouble
For nothing can touch a soul proctected by FAITH.......
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
YOUR TRULY AN ANGEL ON EARTH GOD BLESS YOU
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
YOU ARE BLESSED
You are blessed if your soul has Faith
and your Faith in God is strong
If ..... even when your heart is aching
It can still sing
An uplifting song .....
You are blessed ..........
If you find contentment in lifes simple ,priceless joys .
If you have a quiet spot to retreat from all the worlds noise ...................
If youre embraced with love by family ,friends and others
If you feel youre one with your world of sisters and brothers ......
If you can give a hug to those who need it most ..
If you can show the lonely that your heart is a welcoming host ........
If your hopes are high and you keep your dreams alive
If you dont think youll quit but persist and strive
YOU ARE BLESSED !

GOD LOOKED AROUND HIS GARDEN AND FOUND AN EMPTY PLACE
HE THEN LOOKED DOWN UPON THE EARTH AND SAW YOUR TIRED FACE
HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND YOU AND LIFTED YOU TO REST
GODS GARDEN MUST BE BEAUTIFULL
HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST
HE SAW THE ROAD AHEAD WAS ROUGH
AND THE HILLS WOULD BE HARD TO CLIMB
SO HE CLOSED YOUR WEARY EYELIDS AND WHISPERED
"PEACE BE THINE "
IT BROKE OUR HEARTS TO LOSE YOU
BUT YOU DID NOT GO ALONE
FOR PART OF ME WENT WITH YOU
THE DAY GOD CALLED YOU HOME
