“Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you...
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah â€
Maria was a very close friend of mine and the first person I talked to when I started working in Servisair.
On the 19th of Dec 2008, Maria finished her usual shift in work and headed home for a night out, like any other night with her friends.
Maria was looking forward to the Christmas and had gone out with spare money she’d had left over after buying the last of her Christmas presents for her family and friends. Maria never returned home that night.
Maria was fatally injured when she was hit by a passing car whilst crossing the road.
The morning after the accident a call was received in work to tell us of the accident and say Maria was on life support machine and critical. A moment I will never forget.
She bravely hung on until the 22nd of Dec until her both her parents, Patricia and Brian were forced to make the heartbreaking decision to let their only daughter go.
Maria’s parents then went on to make the brave decision of donating her organs so that their daughter could go on to save other people lives.
She was finally laid to rest on the 24th Dec 2008, Christmas Eve.. a day I now remember for all the wrong reasons.
Maria was the most down to earth person you could meet and so easy to talk to.
Her big cheery smile would light up the darkest room and she was always the first (and last off!) the dance floor at many a Christmas party.
Most of the two years we spent together were made up of laughing, joking, last minute shift swaps and the remainder trying to cover up one another mistakes!
I never knew, and wish I still didn’t, how much it hurts to loose a friend.
.
Some days are harder than others and not one goes by that I don’t think of her and wish things could have turned out differently.
She will always have a special place in the heart of mine and those that knew her x
We miss your smile,
Your joking ways,
We miss the things
You used to say,
And when old times
We do recall,
It’s when we
miss you
Most of all
God called your name so softly, Maria
That only you could hear
And no one heard the footsteps
Of angels drawing near
It was a sudden parting,
Too bitter to forget,
Those who loved you dearly
Are the one’s who can’t forget
We often sit and think of you,
And think of how you died;
To think you could not say goodbye,
Before you closed your eyes.
Your life was one of kindly deeds,
A helping hand for others needs,
Sincere and true in heart and mind,
Beautiful memories left behind.
The blow was hard, the shock severe,
To part with one we loved so dear,
Our loss is great, we’ll not complain,
But trust in God to meet again.
They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way we feel
Your smiles
we miss,
Your laughter
we treasure
Loving you always
Forgetting you never...
xx
Until we meet again x
Feel free to leave a tribute or light a candle in memory of our Maria x
It was beautiful as long as it lasted,
The journey of my life.
I have no regrets whatsoever,
Save the pain I’ll leave behind.
Those dear hearts who love and care …
And the strings pulling at the heart and soul …
The strong arms that held me up,
When my own strength let me down.
At every turning of my life,
I came across good friends,
Friends who stood by me,
Even when time raced by me.
Farewell, farewell my friend,
I smile and bid you goodbye.
No, shed no tears for I need them not,
All I need is your smile.
If you feel sad do think of me,
For that’s what I’ll like.
When you live in the hearts of those you love,
Remember then, you never die.

I'M SPENDING CHRISTMAS WITH
JESUS CHRIST THIS YEAR
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;
It is beyond description
to hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
but please remember dear,
That I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.
I cannot tell you of the splendour
of the peace inside this place;
Can you just imagine Christmas
with Our Saviour, face to face?
I will ask Him to light your spirit
as I tell Him of your love;
So pray for one another
as you lift your eyes above.
Please let your hearts be joyful
and let your spirit sing;
For I am spending Christmas in Heaven
And walking with the King !
Miss You......

Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on
and cherished memories never fade
because a loved ones gone
those we love can never be
more than a thought apart
for as long as there is memory
they'll live on in the heart.
