In These
Arms ~
Bon Jovi
Our
sweet
Angel
Princess'
Funeral
was held
On 23rd
April
2002 at
1:30pm
at
Lewisham
crematorium.
So many people came, people who had never even seen Georgie let alone held
her.
Sadly it
was
also the
first
time I
meet a
lot of
my
on-line
friends.
I was
and
still am
very
touched
that
they
took
time out
of their
lives to
help us
honour
and say
goodbye
to our
princess.
Georgina's
Daddy,
uncle
Phil,
Uncle
John
(her
godfather)
and
uncle
Mick
gently
carried
Georgina's
tiny
coffin
into the
chapel
to "In
These
Arms by
Bon Jovi"
(Playing
on this
page) I
don't
think I
will
ever
forget
seeing 4
strong
men
crying
their
eyes out
as they
did this
last act
of
love for
our
angel
daughter.
Myself
and
Bradley
followed
behind,
Sara my
sister
in law
and my
best
friend
actually
carried
me up
the walk
way
behind
Georgina.
The
Vicar
Alan
conducted
Georgina's
service
with
love and
compassion
he
showed
us great
respect
and care
even
coming
to
Georgina's
wake
later
that
afternoon.
Bradley
kept
cheering
him
whenever
he
spoke,
Bradley
kept the
situation
so real
for us
all.
There
was not
a dry
eye in
the
chapel.
During
the
service
I got up
and read
a few
words
and a
poem
written
for us
by dawn
my
on-line
mum (you
can find
what I
read on
the next
page) I
felt so
much
love and
support
in the
room
directed
at me
that I
was able
to do
it. I
also
felt as
though
Georgie
my
beautiful
daughter
was
there
willing
me on.
The
following
are
Verses
that
were
read :
Psalm 23
The Lord
is my
shepherd,
I shall
not be
in want, in want,
He
maketh
me lie
down in
green
pastures,
He leads
me
beside
quiet
waters,
He
restores
my soul.
He
guides
me in
the
paths of
righteousness
For His
name's
sake.
Even
though I
walk
Through
the
valley
of the
shadow
of death
I will
fear no
evil,
for you
are with
me;
Your rod
and thy
staff
they
comfort
me.
You
prepare
a table
before
me
In the
presence
of my
enemies
You
anoint
my head
with
oil;
My cup
overflows.
Surely
goodness
and love
will
follow
me
All the
days of
my life,
And I
will
dwell in
the
house of
the Lord
for
ever.
The
Little
Children
and
Jesus.
Mark 10
People
were
bringing
little
children
to Jesus
to have
him
touch
them,
but the
disciples
rebuked
them.
When
Jesus
saw
this, he
was
indignant.
He said
to them,
"Let the
little
children
come to
me, and
do not
hinder
them,
for the
kingdom
of God
belongs
to such
as
these. I
tell you
the
truth,
anyone
who will
not
receive
the
kingdom
of God
like a
little
child
will
never
enter
it.' And
He took
the
children
in his
arms,
put his
hands
upon
them and
blessed
them
Because
Georgina
was
cremated
one of
the
things I
was
afraid
of was
seeing
her
coffin
disappear
behind
curtains
or
lowered
out of
view.
Alan
arranged
it so
that
this
didn't
happen.
When it
was time
for me
to leave
I didn't
want to
I knew
that
although
Georgie's
sprit
had flew
to
heaven
13 days
before
it would
be the
last
time I
would be
in the
presents
of her
earthly
body.
All I
wanted
to do
was get
her out
of the
coffin
and run
out of
there
with
her.
Malcolm
Helped
me out
of the
chapel
into the
garden
of
remembrance
where
all the
flowers
are put.
Georgina
had so
many
flowers.
I must
be
honest
although
I have
all the
cards
that
were
attached
tot he
flowers
I only
know
what a
few
people
sent. I
couldn't
look at
them
it hurt
so much.
My mum
went
back
later
and got
some
photos
of the
flowers.
There
are a
selection
on the
next
page
along
with the
car that
took our
baby
girl on
her
final
journey.
