David Lamb (Lamby)
1967-2007
age:39
from: sunderland
My dad left us suddenly on the 14th septermber 2007 aged just 39. He had his whole life ahead of him and had just been married.
He left behind 6 childern my older brother david 20, then me kirsty 18, then my brother jordan 15, then my brother liam 13, then my brother callum 6 and my sister tiegan 4. my dad also had a wife called toni who he only just married in june 2007 after 7 years together. My dad was a wounderful man who was loved by everyone who met him.
My dad was the kind of man who loved going to his local pub, the farringdon club, with loads of his mates and only intending to having a few pints but always used to come rolling home . He loved the footy just as much as any other bloke, it was his passion, always watching every single sunderland and celtic match, a devoted fan.
My dad was the best any one could ever wish for always putting his kids and family before himself always making sure we never went without even if he had to. Our house was never quiet mind ya with all his kids you could guarantee that when you walked through out front door our house was always up in riots. kids running riots n me dad chasing them all over especially when he came in from one of his nights out with the lads. He used to come in and wake us up just to tell us he loved us n what kind of night he had had.
People say that god only takes angels off us and how true is that my dad was nothing but an angel. People don't realise what they have until it's gone and that is soo true. When my dad left us we didnt only loose our dad but we lost our best friend too. He was always there to tell us what to do and give us a hand when we needed it. You could turn up at his door any time you needed help and he was always there offering to lend you a hand and never turned any one away.
My dad will be a very much loved and missed person in our family. Rest in Peace dad. You will always be in our hearts and never far from our thoughts. We love ya always all our love ya devoting kids xxxxx
Before i begin, to ramble on and on.
Just thought you should know, this poem is not a pleasant one.
It is not meant to be happy or bring you a smile,
Just give you an insight on my life for a while.
Daddy's little princess, is what i used to be.
but now he's gone, vanished
Where is he?
You lot just dont understand how lucky you guys are,
now all i have are memories and wishing upon his star.
She went to heaven with dad i think...
The kirsty i used to be.
Whats left now is tears, fears... and insecurity.
I Sometimes feel like a stranger,
even to all my best friends.
They just see my fake, smiling face,
not the empty feeling inside that never ends.
You may think i'm over it..."so what if her dad's dead".
But i'm the one who has to hear,
the desperate screaming inside my head.
Sitting inside the crowded classroom,
yet i feel so alone.
Do you know how that feels?
My soul turn to stone.
Left me behind.
No last goodbye
Now at dad's gravestone i sit and cry.
That awful day, i will never forget.
tear stained face, my sleeve all wet.
Him lying there cold, no cheeky smile.
But for him...it was all worthwhile
Now I know it's what he wanted but NO, HOW?? WHY??
At night, feels like forever, i lay numb and cry.
My friends, you told me,
Where to come when i need a hand.
But it's not your fault, no matter how you try.
You could never understand.
Every birthday, christmas, walking down the aisle.
Your dad is there.
Arguments, cuddles, driving your 1st car!
Life's not fair.
So always remember,
not all scars show, not all wounds heal,
'Cause sometimes you cant always see,
the pain someone feels.
But me, i'm now an outsider,
and can only watch on.
You have something i dont!
For me this hurt has just begun.
wish u were here dad. cant believe ur not guna see your granddaughter grow up :'( i know u wud of loved been a granda after given me a earache about it haha. i'l keep u updated on the pregnancy love you loads always and forever xxxxxxxxxx
happy birthday dad! hope ur getting drunk up there and having a drink for me this year. too many gone by without you now. we miss you more and more as each day goes by. love you always and forever dad xXxXxXxX
Happy birthday lamby. Miss you loads and loads. I hope you are sitting with a drink in your hand now celebrating with me. Love ya always, Kelly x X x x
Dad, our sadness knows no end;
We can’t believe you’re gone;
We’re grieving for you every day;
It’s hard to carry on.
You were always there to support and care,
When we needed a true friend,
How we’ll ever do without our dad,
We cannot comprehend.
You were our teacher and our guide,
Our dad, so good and strong;
Your example will sustain us now,
And last our whole lives long.
We’re trying to communicate;
We hope that you can hear;
Expressing what we feel for you,
Helps us feel you’re near.
Our memories of the times we had
Help the pain to go away.
But Dad, our lives won’t be the same;
We’ll miss you every day.
A part of us went with you;
You left a gap too big to fill;
You’re our father and our hero;
We love you and we always will.
happy fathers day dad love you xxx
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!
happy fathers day dad another year without you here!!! just another crappy year gone by!! theres nothing much i can say cos i've probs sed it all before a hundred times. love you always and for ever dad xxxxx
miss you!!
hey dad, i'm having one of them days where i just cant seem to get you and anth out my head. been thinking of you's none stop all day. i wish u were here more than anything i dont think people actually realise how much i'm missing you or how much it hurts. they always say time heals pain and it gets easier as time goes on but believe me it doesnt! it just means another day without you. god i wish i was with you right now dad, i just dont seem to understand or maybe get my head around the fact that your not here it just doesnt seem real or right! all them horrible people out there and they had to chose two of the men i love the most! i dunno if its just me being selfish or what. i've often thought what life would be like if you were stil here it just seems totally different. i'm off to see a bereavement councillor soon dad they dont think i've grieved for you or anth yet maybe it'l help a little. i'm kinda scared of going cos it means that i'll have to face up to the reality that you's are actually not coming back and i dont think i want to do that it's much easier just to dream about the day u come walking thru that front door. i stil have dreams about you and anth every night sometimes i wake up in a cold sweat its horrible. othertimes i dream your stil here then wake up and the whole world comes crashing down again cos your not here. i know you'l be looking down on us thinking step out of it you silly mare. it brings comfort even if it is just a little its better than nothing! am guna go now dad cos i think i've rambeled on enough dont you ha! its never goodbye dad but see ya later! sleep tight till the day we meet again (and i cant come quick enough) na nyt dad love you always and forever kirsty xxxxxxx

FOR DAVID X
THINKING OF YOU X
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a 1,000 winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled light
I am the soft star that shines at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there; I did not die.
FROM CHER N JOHN XXXXX
