Stephen Pope was a much loved son to Thomas and Elizabeth (Betty) Pope, and a loved and much respected father and friend to his 4 children- John, Michael, Alan and Sarah.
Stephen was took from us on 16/08/1996, at the age of just 39, due to heart failier.
He will never know just how hard it was for all who knew him to come to terms with the fact that someone so kind, caring, and loved, had gone from our lives.
The things that I will always remember about my dad, is how much he would make us all laugh , be it with his whitty one liners or his well planned pranks.
I ask all who knew him to leave a message for our dad, Because i know that somehow, somewhere, He is still watching over all of us.

12 yrs

twelve years on and that night still haunts me to this day.
i'll never forget the feeling of sadness and hurt that i felt when i was told what had happened to you.
all i hope is that you are watching over us somehow, and can see how much we love and miss you.

i love you dad, and will always hold you in my heart.

hi daddy

its here again tomorrow. absolutely hate that day but it still repeats on us all each year and it doesnt hurt any less each year.
Miss you more each year and wish you was here with us all helping us make a little more sense of a life that was clearly taken from us way too soon.
i hope one day i will be strong enough to cope better and not hide away from the problems but to find a realistic solution.
tomorrow will always be the day i dread coming to each year but maybe ill grow up enough to understand that as a child i could only see things in black and white but as an adult i will see a little more colour.
i love you more today than yesterday but less than i will tomorrow. love you always, your not so little princess, sarah xxx

hi daddy

guess its been a long time and im sorry for that. everythings a bit mad right now as u well now. i really miss u n another birthday without u didnt seem right. my mates keep sayin they wish they had met you cuz they think you sound great. one day maybe we can all find the reason why you was taken from us so cruelly. i always wished that i had one last chance to say goodbye, that last moment to hold you and kiss your cheek and tell you i love you but i wont happen. maybe one day well be together again and make up for all these years we have been apart. i just hope you approve of my decisions and some how can show me that you will be there for me when it matters most. love you loads.
love you more today than yesterday but less than i will tomorrow. love you always,
your not so little princess, sarah xxx

Ho Dad, hope you had a good birthday, wherever you are. And hope you got your card.
Sorry i haven't been on for a while but i have been busy at work, that time of the year again.
I'm still struggling to cope with things that have happened over the last couple of years, but you taught me to put on a brave face and not let it show. (I'm trying)
I still miss you loads and wish that you were here with us.
speak to you soon Dad.

hi daddy

well its all going on at the moment as you well know. I wish you was here in body as much as you are in spirit. I know that wont happen no matter how much I pray. Roll on August the 30th and October the 7th. Please make Matty come early, I could do with less kicks lol. He already has your attitude and sarcasm and hes not born yet. Ive asked John to do what I dream you can, hes the closest I have left really. He gets more and more like you but we always knew he would. The lads are great, youd be so proud of all three of them, they are great dads and fantastic caring brothers and people just as you would want. You won on the song, we love it and its perfect. The only thing missing is going to be you! Im trying to make the day as special as you would want as much as we do. I love you more today than yesterday but less than I will tomorrow, your not so little princess, Sarah, Matty, Paul, Melly and Courtney xxxxx
