Peter David Clamp,
25th.May,2004 (went to heaven)
Aged 60
From: Skegness, Lived when died: Mansfield,
Occupation: Labourer, Coal miner. (unemployed).
Family details:
Brother.
Two daughters, Two sons.
Passed away from Lung Cancer, Heart Disease..
Peter, (my dad), lived in Skegness for many years, in a bedsit with his ex wife Margiaet. He lived there near the sea which he loved dearly. He was a very tall man and of stocky build. He had lovely thick dark hair, and was always smiling.
He loved his music especially Elvis, and country & western. He loved his animals, especially Squirells,foxs, and Koi Carp fish.
When he lived in Mansfield he lived in Woodleigh nursing home, for a while where he met a few friends, and was ready to move into his own flat.
Everyone who knew him was welcomed by his smile and loving nature.
The day he became ill, the doctor thought he had a chest infection and was taken to Kinsmill hospital in a ambulance. When we arrived there he was kept in Ward 4 and told he had Lung Cancer.
The doctor told me and my father that he had two years to live and that they would make him comtable.
While he was in hospital he expressed how he would like to sit outside the nursing home with the fish pond, and remmeber the good old days with his young family.
A few weeks later the horrible day came where I had been in the hospital at the bed side of my loving father for 4 days & nights soild, when the nurses surguested that I took a break & returned refresh. They told me that my father was asleep and that they would phone me as soon as he woke.
I agreed and left saying goodbye to my father and kissing him on the head.
On my way home I recieved a phone call from the hospital, to ask that I returned as soon as possible. I agreed and returned to the hospital, to find that my dad had passed away.
I was alone..... but my dad was finally at peace, and pain free.
I phoned my husband Anton who fetched my family, to let them come and say goodbye.
I finally said goodbye at the last day with my father at his funieral on the 2nd june,2000. That day was a very dark day for me even thought the sun was shining.
I played 3 special songs for the funieral, but I couldn't bring myself to write anything for the goodbye. First time in ages.
It has been four long and very hard years since my father passed away. I still miss his smile and sitting with him as he's singing his songs in the garden, and watching his fish pond with him. I even still make him a drink sometimes forgetting his gone.
But yes hes gone but he will always be in my heart for as long as I'm alive. I'm glad in a way he's not here, due to the pain he was in... but I wish he didn't have to miss out on life's events.
Till we meet again, Please god take care of my special hero and guardian angel. He's defiantly one of the best ones you have taken.
Your Everloving Daughter,
Helen. (Hels Bels). xxx
We've buried granddad today... I really did need you today...
I still think were you would be, and I've even tried writing letters to you that you could never read... But it's so hard letting you go...
It feels like you were taken from me when we were just beginning to know each other properly.
I still think of you, and miss you every day.
Dad you turned your baby in to a lady, and I know there will never be a love like ours again, the love between a daughter and father is so special. Goodbye was the hardest word I said....
I know I'll never see you again and this breaks my heart... but I still expect you to knock on the door and just say everything is going to be alright... but it's not going to be because that won't happen.... I will always love you more each day.
Till we meet again, all my love your daughter... Helen
( goodbyes the saddest word..... celine Dion).....
tonite I sit and pray, to god up above to keep you safe and warm.
In my heart your'll always stay, but in heaven you remain, away from me.
I miss and love you dearly, just hope your being looked after by the angels.... x

Your my Dad, always and forever. I wish I could hold u for just one second longer, but I can't. So I'm here thinking of you and sending my own birthday wishes.
Your'll always be apart of me in everything I do. And I will always love you! xx
DAD
Did you see us pop up to see you last week. It makes me cry still to leave you alone. I still think of the times we had together laughing in the garden with the koi carp fish & robins.
I still miss you dearly, and wish you were here with me... I will always love you x
DAD
I know everyone says their Dad is the number 1 Dad... But this is definatly the case with you. I might have not had you for long, but you were always the one I wanted to be with. I'm your shadow I know... But I can't be your shadow anymore, as your too far away. I miss and love you more every day.
Still can't believe your gone. Wish you were still here today. xx R.I.P. My Hero... x
DAD
Dad your the one I ran to when I needed a friend,
Dad you were the one that said you would never leave,
Dad you were my hero in every passing day,
Dad you were my life, you made me whole,
Dad I wish I could share the times again which we once did,
Then maybe you would see that I still need you like you needed me....
I miss and love you still with every day.
You may be out of sight but your'll never be out of my heart. I miss you dearly... your everloving daughter Helen xx
I saw this and it maid me think of you Dad...
Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.
What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.
What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.
Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.
Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.
Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.
Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.
I miss you more and more every day,
Life with out your listerning ear is hard,
I miss sitting with you in the garden watching the birds playing,
& the fish swimming in front of us.
I wish you were still here to hold my hand & tell me everything will be alright...
I miss and love you loads, I hope god is keeping you safe... Love you Dad... xx
