Catherine(Cath) Mary Bergin
Born 24th Febuary 1938
Died on Monday 7th January
Aged 69
A mum to Paul, Dean and Sarah. Wife to Terry and Nanna to four lucky grandchildren,Sadie,
Bethan,Luke and Cameron.
A loyal and true friend to all.
A very sudden and unexpected death.
A lady who dealt with so much throughout her life, the tragedy of losing her son, Dean, in a
motorbike accident when he was only 29, left her devastated,the sadness and pain she felt when Dean
was killed was something she never got over and she remained heartbroken for 13 years and 9 months!
And the unsolved mystery of where her father was , when he went to work one day and never returned
when she was just 18.
We find some comfort in knowing she is reunited with those we know she wanted to see again.
Despite all of this what a lovely special person she was, always there if you needed her and so
thoughtful and generous to her family and friends, and even to those she didnt know. A soft touch
from her warm hands would make you feel better if you were upset, and her laugh could always make
you smile.
Anywhere she went there would be some one she knew, from a neighbour to someone she worked with
years before. Never would she not say hello. She looked for the best in people, even if their faults
were noticable.
WE LOVE YOU NANNA AND MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH.
The Final Flight
Dont grieve for me, for now Im free,
Im following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
Ive found that peace at the end of the day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah, yes, these things too I will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My Lifes been full, I savoured much,
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Dont lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

You are Loved.
Don’t give up
It’s just the weight of the world
When your heart’s heavy, I
I will lift it for you
Don’t give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you, I
I will break it for you
Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don’t give up
Because you are loved
Don’t give up
It’s just the hurt
That you hide
When you’re lost inside, I
I’ll be there to find you
Don’t give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you I
I will shine to guide you
Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don’t give up
Because you are loved
You are loved
Don’t give up
It's just the weight of the world
Don't give up
Everyone needs to be heard
You are loved
I know you really loved this song Mum, hope you can still hear it! I miss you so much. x x x x x
THE WINDS OF TIME CANNOT BLOW
MY LOVE AWAY...
DEEP IN MY SOUL, THIS LOVE WAS BORN.
AND WILL LAST TILL MY DYING DAY,
SANDS IN THE HOURGLASS SLOWLY FALL,
AND TIME QUICKLY RUNS ON BY...
A SIGH ESCAPES... THIS LONGING FOR YOU,
IS AS VAST AS THE EARTH AND SKY...
TILL WE MEET AGAIN, GOD GO WITH YOU,
AND GUIDE YOUR WAYWARD GAIT...
BUT KNOW IN MY HEART,MY UNDYING LOVE
SILENTY, LONGINLY,WAITS.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE ROSE BEYOND THE WALL
A rose once grew
Where all could see
Sheltered beside a garden wall
And as the days passed swiftly by
It spread its branches staight and tall
One day,a beam of light
Shone through a crevice
That opened wide
The rose bent gently
Towards its warmth
Then passed beyond
To the other side
Now,you who deeply feel its loss
Be comforted the rose blooms there
Its beauty even greater now
Nurured by Gods own loving care
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Little did we know that morning
God was going to 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 peaceful memories,
Your love is still our guide.
And though we cannot see you,
You are always by 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.

CARESSING MY FACE WITH A WHISPER.
CALLING OUT YOUR NAME.
THE WINDS OF DELIGHT ENTICE ME.

I WILL FOLLOW THE SINGING WIND,
AND WHERE IT LEADS I'LL GO.
FOR THE WIND THAT BLEW YOU TO ME,
WILL TAKE ME WHERE I MUST GO.
UPWARD INTO THE HILLS.
CALMLY ACROSS THE SEA.
HOLD ON MY LOVE, IM COMING,
THE WINDS HAVE SET ME FREE.
FREE TO LOOK AND SEARCH THIS EARTH
NO MATTER HOW FAR THAT MAY BE.

YOU GRASP MY HAND IN YOURS
AND SOFTLY SPEAK MY NAME,
OUT OF THE WHISPERING WINDS
WE ARE TOGETHER AGAIN.
============================
GOOD MORNING MY FRIEND
WITH LOVE LINDA.XXX
Nothing is ever truly gone
like a puddle of water after the rain
It evaporates back into the clouds
and sometime later returns again.
Like the memory you'll forever hold
of your loved one that pasted on.
They are a part of your thoughts and heart
therefore they'll forever live on.
Yet as for now they are resting
for now they are at peace.
Say so long, never goodbye,
until once again in heaven you'll meet.
*************************************
i hope that you all have a good day,
and takecare my friend.
with love as always linda.xxx
opened up a box one day
What treasures did I find!
Letters and some photographs
Of days we left behind
I drifted back to yesterday
The thought was oh, so clear
For just a moment, anyway
It felt like you were here
I smile when I think of you
Sometimes I cry so much
I'm all alone without you now
I crave to feel your touch
But God had other plans for you
An Angel he did find
So now my box of memories
Is all that's left behind
**************************
thank you my friends for all
your lovely support it means
so very much to me and my karl.
i hope that you all a good monday
god bless you all and takecare.
with love as always linda.xxx
ALWAYS TOGETHER, NEVER APART.
WE ARE ALWAYS TOGETHER
EVEN THOUGH WE ARE APART
THOUGH DISTANCE MAY BE BETWEEN
WE ARE NEVER SEPARATE IN HEART.
FOR WHEN WE ARE TOGETHER
WE MAKE BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES
SO WE ARE ALWAYS CLOSE
EVEN THROUGH MOUNTAINS,VALES,OR SEA.
THROUGH THE GENTLE WISPER OF BREEZE
OR STARS ON A MOONLIGHT NIGHT
OUR LOVE TALKS TO OUR HEART
WITH WORDS MADE JUST RIGHT.
OUR HEARTS ARE ALWAYS ONE
THOUGH THEY MAY BE TWO
YOU ARE ALWAYS HERE WITH ME
AS I AM ALWAYS THERE WITH YOU.
***********************************
I HOPE YOU ALL LIKE THIS NATIVE AMERICAN POEM
AS MUCH AS I DO, AND TO LET YOU KNOW I WILL BE AWAY THIS WEEKEND. SO I HOPE THAT YOU ALL HAVE
A LOVELY WEEKEND AND TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF
WITH LOVE AS ALWAYS LINDA.XXX
As We Look Back
As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgement,
Courage and integrity?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best?
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us.
I'm sure you know, but wanted to tell you anyway! Still heartbroken and desperately missing my best friend,with all my love FOREVER. x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
