Born Leslie Lindsay 1st January, 1937. Died 28th June, 2000.

Born into a family of 10 and raised in South Shields, Les was quite typical of most lads of his
generation. On leaving school he went to the pit to work. Mining was hard work and fraught with
danger, but the miners had a camaraderie second to none. It was this closeness between "marras" that
made the miners something special, they were the salt of the earth, they worked hard and often
played hard.
When the Colliery closed, Les went to the shipyards to work. His work took him all over the country
and often abroad. Les worked at this job until illness forced his retirement.

Les was a man who liked to socialise and enjoyed a pint or two or three! He socialised with his
mates, usually in his local where he played domino's, 5s and 3s.
January 1st was Les's birthday! His celebration started on New Years Eve and went on, usually for
two or three days.

Les married Pat in 1965, raised a family of three girls and currently has eight grandchildren and
two great-grandsons.

After his family, his passion was Football, Sunderland A.F.C.
Les had supported Sunderland from the age of 8, sometimes walking to Roker Park, and eventually
became a full season ticket holder.

Les was sadly diagnosed with Cancer in 1999, he fought on bravely but lost his battle and died
peacefully at home in June 2000.

Les was well known and liked by many people. He was gregarious and friendly and would chat to
anyone, having an obvious talent for making lifelong friends. He was a great man, who will always be
missed for many good reasons.

In tears we saw you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
Our hearts were almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay,
But when we saw you sleeping,
So peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back,
To suffer that again.

At Peace. x x x x x x x

In loving memory of Maureen Laverick, who died suddenly on 11th September, 2007.
Maureen was the baby sister of Les, and youngest of the Lindsay family.

Maureen will be sadly missed, by all who knew her. x♥X♥x

A wife, a mother, a grandma too,
This is the legacy we have from you,
You taught us love, and how to fight,
You gave us strength, you gave us might.
A stronger person, would be hard to find,
And in your heart, you were always kind,
You fought for us all in one way or another,
Not just as a wife, not just as a mother.
For all of us you gave your best,
Now the time has come for you to rest,
So go in peace, you've earned your sleep,
Your love in our hearts, we'll eternally keep.

♥

In loving memory of Doris Lindsay, who died peacefully on 25th October, 2007.
Reunited with your brother Les and sister Maureen.

Dot will be sadly missed, by all who knew her. x♥X♥x

Always a smile, instead of a frown,
Always a hand, when one is down,
Always true, thoughtful and kind,
Wonderful memories she left behind.

♥

There is a place in every heart,
They call it Memory Lane,
Where thoughts of loved ones lost,
Forever will remain.

God made this special place,
When He first created man,
For He knew it would be needed,
As part of our life's plan.

He knew when loved ones left us,
We'd need some time to heal,
To come to terms with sorrow,
And the loneliness we'd feel.

So when you lose a loved one,
And your life is filled with pain,
The comfort of their presence,
Will be found in Memory Lane.

My heart,now is broken
I dont know what to do
My life now feels so empty
Im so sad im missing you

I wake up every morning
Just hoping its a dream
When i realise its not
It makes me want to scream

So many tears have fallen
Every tear i shed for you
The reason im feeling pain like this
Because im a part of you

♥~You Will See Them Someday~♥

� Stephan Banks
When you lose someone it can be hard to take
The pain that you feel when your heart has to break
The memories you keep are all in your mind
As you search your soul for more to find
The way their skin felt the smell of their hair
As you keep thinking over and shedding a tear
The years may pass, memories fade to grey
But your getting no younger you'll see them someday
Unconditional love is never forgotten
look deep in your heart it is there at the bottom
Alone in the dark sometimes in fear
voices from loved ones your hoping to hear
More years pass, they soon fly by
but your always looked upon from those in the sky
Surrounded by clouds and pure white doves
They listen and watch sending you love
just remember one thing as you sit and you pray
They will be there to greet you, you will see them someday.

LOVE ALWAYS VICKY XXXX

♥----♥---FROM HEAVEN----♥---♥

It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...

♥**********♥*************♥*************♥

I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...

♥**********♥**************♥************♥

I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrop
I so wish I could erase...

♥**********♥**************♥************♥

I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...

♥**********♥**************♥************♥

I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...

♥**********♥**************♥************♥

You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...

♥**********♥**************♥************♥

I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...

It's raining outside..
So cold and wet
Is it sunny in heaven?
It is I bet

Water falls from the sky..
Just like my tears..
That I cry

I cry so much..
And I hurt with pain
Since you went to heaven..
I've not been the same

I miss you so much..
As the days go by
My tears fall slowly..
As I wipe my eyes

I think of you..
With joy and pride
Please keep me safe..
And walk by my side

I look up to the sky..
As I think of you with love
My sweet Angel..
In heaven above

Turn Back Time
♥***♥***♥***♥***♥

Oh dear God im hurting
I dont know what to do
Ive got no sunshine in my life
Everyday im feeling blue

♥***♥***♥***♥***♥

Ive got no strength inside me
Im feeling very weak
Some days when i am so sad
I just cant even speak

♥***♥***♥***♥***♥

I sit alone in silence
I wonder all the time
If i had magic powers
I would turn back time

♥***♥***♥***♥***♥

Id turn back time
And stop the clock
To the happy days with you
For there would be more sunshine
And no more feeling blue

♥***♥***♥***♥***♥

~ It's Raining In My Heart ~

Thunder and lighting
Then torrential rain
It's raining in my heart now
Because I can't see you again

Life was always bright for us
Even when it rained
But since the day you died
The sun light from my life has drained

There's no brightness in my life now
No sun on my window pains
My life is forever dull
Because I can't see you again

LOVE ALWAYS VICKY XXXX
