My gorgeous nephew 💙

Added by Hayley

My beautiful nephew, Carl Barearse, where do I begin. I fell in love with you, when I first visited you and your mam when you were first born and I was a student nurse and on shift on another ward ....that love for you never wavered, even when your troubled soul led you down a very dark path, where none of us could reach you and bring you back to us...You can now rest in peace son, knowing me and auntie Joanne will always be there for your mam, wor Joe and your 4 beautiful bairns. Sleep tight son, love you TIAB, auntie Hayley ❤️💔

Carl, my gorgeous nephew 💔 You were my very first nephew and loved unconditionally from the start. I’ll always treasure the memories of you growing up—taking you out on little days, going to the park, seeing your excited face when me and Uncle John took you to see Santa, and how proud we were to have you as our page boy at our wedding. Even as you grew older and had your own children, we stayed close, and that meant everything to me. The last few years were hard, and you lost your way at times. I won’t pretend I wasn’t angry and disappointed, but I never stopped loving you—not for a second. Sleep peacefully now son. You’ll always be in my heart. All my love forever ❤️

Auntie Joanne xxxx

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.

Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Carl. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
