We have been asked by a couple of families for some ideas for inscriptions for Headstones and Memorial plaques. It is such a highly personal decision and those words have to be just perfect. But we have found a few which we hope may inspire……


Sleep our beautiful angel on your pillow in the sky , Angels are forever so we’ll never say goodbye

So small, so sweet, so soon

Tread carefully, here lies our world

Sleep my beautiful angel on your pillow in the sky, Angels are forever so we’ll never say goodbye

A little flower lent not given, to bud on earth and bloom in heaven

No matter how we spend our lives, no matter what we do, there’s always longing in our hearts for yesterday and you

May you find comfort in the arms of an Angel

Those we love don’t go away they walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard,  but always near, so loved, so missed and so very dear

An angel in the book of life wrote down my baby’s birth, and whispered as she closed the book, too beautiful for earth

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal

A thousand words can’t bring you back, I know because I’ve tried and neither can a million tears, I know because I’ve cried

If every tear we shed for you became a star above, you’d stroll in Angels garden lit by everlasting love

When tomorrow starts without me, try to understand an Angel came called my name then took me by the hand

Our hearts still ache in sadness and secret tears still flow, what it meant to lose you no one will ever know

Those who we have held in our arms for a little while, we hold in our hearts forever

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I’d walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again

Goodbyes are not forever, goodbyes are not the end, they simply mean I miss you until we meet again

You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide, though we cannot see you,  you are always by our side

Wherever I go, whatever I do, memories keep me near to you

Although you can’t be here with me, we’re truly not apart, until the final breath I take; you’ll be living in my heart

No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye, you were gone before we knew it and only God knows why

I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new, I thought about you yesterday and days before that too, I think of you in silence, I often speak your name, all I have is memories and your picture in a frame, your memory is my keepsake, which I’ll never part, God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever

Forever young, forever in our hearts

No jewel is as perfect as the innocence of childhood

Sleep my little one, sleep

Ours for a little while

Treasured memories keep you near

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen nor touched but are felt in the heart

Beautiful memories are silently kept of a child we loved and will never forget

You are my angel, my darling – my star….and my love will find you wherever you are
