Dedicated to the memory of Gladeyes
This tribute is for my late wife Gladys (Gladeyes) who was taken from us on the 3rd of October 2018 aged 83. Gladeyes passed away peacefully in my arms at home with her family around her. Sadly it was Vascular Dementia that finally took her away. Gladeyes was the best thing that ever happened to me. We met in January of 1958 and married at Gretna Green a few months later in August of the same year. She brought 3 wonderful children into the world and loved them in the way that only a mum can love her child. Gladeyes was a fantastic mum, grandma, great grandma & auntie to several nieces and nephews. Her endless creativity and wisdom she used to great effect in raising her family. Always singing or humming tunes. One of her 'for fun' assetts was her extremely loud wolf whistle that often made people turn and smile. However as her illness took over, Gladeyes would whistle at the most awkward and embarrassing of times in x-ray rooms and even in church and once at her brother-in-law's funeral! There never was a dull moment with Gladeyes, she surely was the eternal optimist.

Hardly ever an hour goes by without me having a lovely memory whether it's a laughing memory or simply a quiet thoughtful one. The day will come when we will once more laugh and be blissfully happy again.

Time
Time cannot steal the treasures
that we carry in our hearts.
Nor ever dim the shining thoughts
our cherished past imparts
For the memories of the ones
we loved still cast a gentle glow,
To grace our days and light
our paths, wherever we may go.
