My Dad Kenneth Bland aged 62 passed away on the 11th april 2007 at the royal victoria hospital newcastle upon tyne at 1.10 am with his family and a close friend beside him, my dad was born in byker and had 2 brothers the family moved into walker early on in his life where he met his first wife to whom he had a baby girl with but unfortunately his marriage didnt last. My dad met a young lady called christine whom he later on married he seen his daughter at weekends when he wasnt at work but eventually he got full custody of michelle when she was aged 7 this meant the world to my dad family life was now complete. My dad first started work at parsons but his last job was at british steel in walkergate he left due to poor health, My dad was a family man loving and caring and would do anything for his family he also had lots of friends his interests was spending time with his family and friends also my dad was a very keen gardener who grew his own vegtables in his back garden and grew wonderful flowers in the front for everyone to see friends and family would come to my dad for help for diffrent things and my dad was always there for them as this was the type of person he was it didnt matter what life had to throw at my dad he just accepted it and made the most out of everything he never let anything get him down or in the way. My dad was always there for me from being born to his last day when i was little he would always keep his kitkat for me, every saturday my dad would take me to my nannas we would always walk the same route sometimes he would take me to kelvins shop and buy me a little toy even if it meant it was his last few coppers, my dad was the best dad ever if i done wrong he never raised his hands to me he would send me to my room and if i was very naughty there was one thing he would sayto me and it hurt me very bad but this made me realise i had to behave even though i had been naughty my dad would always cuddle me and come into my room to say goodnight and kiss me on my cheek i know we had our ups and downs but my dad never let me down i let my dad down but still he was always there for me so this just shows what type of dad he really was and that was simply the best dad ever i miss him very much even just to say hello people say god only takes the best and the morning he came for my dad he took the best.
just for you dad
Roses grow in Heaven, Lord, pick a bunch for me. Place them
in my Daddy's arms and tell him they're from me. Tell him that I love
& miss him & when he turns to smile, place a kiss upon his
cheek & hold him for awhile. Remembering him is easy, I do it everyday. There's an ache within my heart... that will never......go
away. xxx

Words of comfort sent with love xx
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 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 circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.
Thinking of you and your family xx
