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.

Four Little Words
There are four little words
that can easily be said
to my angels in heaven
before I go to my bed.
I look up to the stars
that are shining so bright
and I whisper so quietly
I Love You, Goodnight.

Hello my beautiful angel.
I've been feeling so low today,
So I came on GTS for I have so much I want to say.
I feel so sad and I don't know what I can do,
I miss you so much as I sit by my computer as I cry for you.
So I switched on my computer,
To send you all my love,
And light a candle or two..
For you my angel up above.
I log into my garden,
Type my password in with love,
I know that one day I will be with you in heaven,
My angel up above.
LOVE ALWAYS VICKY XXXX

Tonight i light this candle
For our ANGELS up above
I close my eyes
I feel the warmth
Theyre sending us their love
For they are always near us
Their prescence i can feel
Theyre trying to mend a broken heart
Not possible!!
It wont heal
So im sending all our ANGELS
All my love in return
And when we finally meet again
These tears of mine wont burn
LOVE ALWAYS VICKY XXXXX

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 teardrops
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 ...
♥****♥****♥****♥****♥****♥****♥

One must go and one be left
The lonely road to tread
There comes a day when all must face
The path that lies ahead
Knowing the best is over
With a loved one gone
There seems no point in going on
But time is kind,the passing years
Their balm of healing bring
And like a bird or winters end
The heart begins to sing
We come at last to realize
Death breaks the earthly tie
But love survives when grief has passed
For love can never die
LOVE ALWAYS VICKY XXXX

If I knew For Certain
~
Life for me is empty now
since the day you died
I wish that I could take a flight
to be there by your side
Although the sun is shining
it bring no joy to me
The days all seem so lonely
and will forever be
My memories sustain me
I'm living in the past
I relive again the day
when I saw you last
I know I have to make the best
of the life that I have left
But it's difficult to do
when I'm feeling so bereft
I don't know how to shake
this never ending grief
I so envy all the friend of mine
who have a strong belief
If I knew for certain
I would see you again
I think I would bear more easily
this heartache and this pain.
Copyright� Ingrid Aspey
I can see you.
I can hear the sound of sorrow
Below that cloudy sky
I know you keep crying
And asking yourself why.
I can feel the heartache
See tears that you cry
But listen to me now
I only sleep, i did not die
What i want is some laughter
Some fun going on down there
I want you all to be merry
As if i was still there.
