If you never had the priveledge to meet my mum I will tell you a bit about her. Mum married my dad (Kenny) in February 6th 1965 when she was just 17 .They had me in the 1965 14th June, Then 1968 March 22nd we got R James, 1971 R Tony arrived on 9th September, there was then an 11 years break till 3rd December 1982 when R Paul arrived and in 1984 5th August comes along R Gerard so as u can see i had 4 brothers & me. Pauline Byrne was a very well respected Licensee and was in the pub game for 30 years. Well on her final working year before she was about to retire mum was in the Waldeck were mum worked hard but had a very busy and lovely pub. B4 The Waldeck mum had 5 other pubs 1st was the Rising Sun, then The Flathouse 3rd was The Spofforth we spent just over 7 years there then went to the Sandown then onto The Falstaff for 12 years b4 going to the Waldeck as this is what mum loved best. In the waldeck Mum & Dad celebrated their 40 years wedding anniversary and we gave them a surprise party, then on the night we sprung it on them they were going to New York for a week mum's dream holiday, they loved it but it was very cold.Then 13 months after that celebration unfortunately mum discovered by her doctors that she had lung cancer. And god love her mum went on doctors advice and had both treatments of chemo and radio, and was so brave the radio was the worst it took it out of R Mum. In september we had a family holiday in Cyprus altogether mum, dad, and us 5 kids & our partners and our children and not forgetting our Joyce we came home from that holiday my mum was totally exhausted that was 5th october. Mum wasnt well on the 25th October and went into hospital.There we learnt it had spread to her liver and her bones and after 17 days in hospital our gorgeous mum passed away very peacefully on the 11.11.2006 rememberance day . We would not wake her up to suffer again but its not the same world we live in anymore as our mum was our inspiration. And from were mum may be she will still try her bestest to look after me dad and us kids and grand kids but its very hard without R mum not in our world anymore it will take a life time to get use to it.You were One in a Million Mum to us all and you will never ever be forgotten Mum, how could we when your in our thoughts every second of the day ? . MWAHHHH XxXxXxXx.

Love Kenny,Deanna,James,Tony,Paul,Gerard,George,Vicky,Emma,Cathy,Darrin,Natalie,Joseph,Molly,Eric , Lily-Ann, Callum (deceased) Kieron, Faye & Baby George

I AM FREE 28th Dec 2006

What Pauline's message would be from the grave ,

Don't grieve for me, for now i'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when i heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh,to love,to work,to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I've found that peace at the end of the day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared,a laugh,a kiss,
Ah yes,these things too i will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life' been full,i savoured much,
Good Friends,good times,a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now,He set me free.
