    JOYCE THOMPSON Mr Joseph Thompson and family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to all relatives, special friend Pauline, dear friends and neighbours for all their many cards, words of comfort and beautiful flowers. Our special thanks to Joyce's dear cousin Howard who conducted the service which we will always be thankful for, especially because he made it unforgettable and memorable. Thanks to Dr Grimes for his care and support to Joyce over the many years. Thanks to the nursing staff at Pendle Community Hospital. Joyce will always remain alive in our hearts and in our memories and the world will be a sadder place without her. God Bless to you all. Remembering today, Joyce's birthday 10/08/1941 You always loved the cards we sent, You saved them through the years, You said they made you feel so loved, Your eyes filled up with tears. Now, no card can we send you, No presents to unwrap, So we're sending all our love to you, To help bridge the gap. They say you're in a better place, We hope and pray that's true, But today it is your birthday and we are all missing you. read more
