Baby LeonaOur deepest sympathies go to Gremlins and Mrsgrems on the tragic loss of their daughter, baby Leona, who sadly passed away in her grandmother’s arms on Monday, aged just 4 months.

Our words seem so indaequate, but the heartfelt thoughts and prayers of all of us here at BingoMania UK are with Jeff, Leanne and the family at this sad time.

    I can only begin to imagine the heartache you are feeling right now, but I pray that the memories you have of Leona may give you some strength in the days ahead.

    I can’t begin to imagine how you are all feeling so all I can say is you have got my full support whenever you need it guys.

    Baby Leona brought you so much joy, so remember the happy times you had with her albeit a short time.

    dear lee and jeff
    I cannot imagine the sorrow u are all feeling ,my heart goes out to you all at this sad time ,be sure we are all thinking of you. I found this poem ,as i find it hard to find the right words x x x

    She was so very, very special
    And was so from the start
    You held her in your arms
    But mainly in your heart

    And like a single drop of rain
    That on still waters fall,
    Her life did ripples make
    And touched the lives of all.

    She’s gone to play with angels
    In heaven up above
    So keep your special memories
    And treasure. them with love

    Although your darling daughter
    Was with you just a while
    She’ll live on in your heart
    With a sweet remembered smile

    R.I.P. little leona you were loved very much

    Poem for Parents

    “I’ll lend you for a little time a child of mine,” He said.
    “For you to love the while she lives and mourn when she is dead,
    “It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three,
    “But will you, till I call her back, take care of her for me?

    “she’ll bring her charms to gladden you, but should her stay be brief,
    “You’ll have her lovely memories, as solace for your grief,
    “I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return,
    “But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn.

    “I’ve looked the wide world over in my search for teachers true,
    “And from the throngs that crowd life’s lanes I have selected you.
    “Now will you give her all your love, nor think the labor vain,
    “Nor hate me when I come to call to take her back again?

    I fancied that I heard them say: “Dear Lord, Thy will be done!
    “For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we’ll run.
    We’ll shelter her with tenderness; we’ll love her while we may,
    And for the happiness that we’ve known forever grateful stay.

    “But should the angels call for her much sooner than we’d planned,
    “We’ll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.”

    Thinking of you all

    I am so sorry ,
    i dont know the right words to say
    my thoughts are with you and all around….

    For Leona the little angel

    God saw you getting tired,
    When a cure was not to be.
    So He wrapped his arms around you,
    and whispered, “Come to me”.
    You didn’t deserve what you went through,
    So He gave you rest.
    God’s garden must be beautiful,
    He only takes the best
    And when I saw you sleeping,
    So peaceful and free from pain
    I could not wish you back
    To suffer that again.

    I was given an angel to cherish and love,

    So tiny, so perfect, a gift from above.

    When I looked at her face it was calmness I found

    And that peace seemed to spread to all her was around.

    Her love touched my heart like fine threads of spun gold

    And I thanked God for giving this angel to hold.

    But I did not know then that time was my foe

    And too soon, with a whisper, my angel would go.

    My heart almost breaking, a touch soft as lace

    Seemed to wipe at the hurt as it coursed down my face.

    I still have my angel to cherish and love,

    Those gold threads now shimmer from Heaven above.

    And though I can’t see her or cuddle her tight,

    I won’t say goodbye, Little Angel, goodnight.

    Dear Jeff and Leanne
    There are never the right words, sorry seems so inadequate, yet i truly am sorry that Leona has died and you have to feel this pain.
    Life is not fair and you have had your fair share of pain already, I only hope she left so soon so she could make everyone in heaven smile with her smiles.
    You and your family are in my thoughts, I hope you find the strength to get through this together.
    Love to you all.
    My condolences for you all

    I am so sorry about your loss, words cannot express.

    This is a poem that i love

    Do not stand at my grave and weep,
    I am not there. I do not sleep.
    I am a thousand winds that blow.
    I am the diamond glints on snow.
    I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
    I am the gentle autumn rain.

    When youawaken in the morning’s hush
    I am the swift uplifting rush
    Of quiet birds in circled flight.
    I am the soft stars that shine in night.
    Do not stand at my grave and cry;
    I am not there. I did not die.

    All my thoughts are with you all

    xxxxxx
