Elaine Hamilton(nee McCaffery) peacefully passed away on the 25th July 2009.Elaine was suffering from cancer for the past 8 years.
Even although she was in pain for all those years Elaine never became a burden to anyone and kept her problems to herself,simply because she wanted to make the all of her dreams come true,and she did that.Elaine was in and out of hospital all the time but she always gave the hope to all the other patients that was sharing the same illness that if she could be a fighter then so could they.Onwards and upwards and you have to go threw the door to come out the other side. she always said.She was good at putting a face on for people just so no-one would see the real pain she was suffering.But in the end her body could not fight it anymore and she went with all her dignity and pride for being the fighter she was.No matter who she met she always touched a part of there heart.She had so much compassion and respect for all the doctors and nurses that treated her in her time of need.
Elaine married her husband Thomas 4yrs ago whom she has been with for 14yrs.
Elaine and Thomas lived in the East end of Glasgow and also loved going to there get away up Ardlui,where she love to relax and look at the beautiful scenery.
Elaine grew up in Barmuloch with 3 sisters & 1 brother.She was the second eldest of the family.
Elaine never had any children but when she married Thomas she became a step mother,and she made it up with everyone else's kids.All her niece's & nephews absolutely adored her.Any time any one was near her she was always tickling them with her beautiful long nails.
But she loved her dogs,she's had 3 little Yorke's over the years.
She had this shine about her people would just stop her in the street and talk to her,as if they knew each other.She had such a warm presence about her,always smiling,laughing,joking and pulling little funny faces.Elaine grew very close to her sister in-law Sandra & all Thomas's family.Elaine had friends from all walks of life,1 special friend June whom adored her.Elaine made friends no matter where she went,but hey that was Lainey.
Elaine Loved to travel and seen all over the world with her husband Thomas.She loved to get away and see lots of different places.She got her wish and saw many places u could ever imagine,but that's what she loved most.
Elaine was so feminine,so lady like and expressed it in many different ways.'Preservation is better than cure'she used to say as she looked after her skin so well you would have thought she was ten years younger.
No one can believe Lainey isn't here anymore but she was missing being free and able to live a pain free life.Elaine will always be remembered for her feminine ways of the lady she was.We will all miss our Lainey but we will never forget her.Its a really sad loss but she is in heaven looking after all her loved one's especially her husband Thomas(her boy).
Lainey we will all miss u so much,we hope you are having the best life ever now with all your loved one's.Anytime you see the shining star in the sky think of Lainey as she was a bright,shining happy cheerful lady who always looked on the bright side of life and fought to the end.
Am sending this note to heaven for all the Angel's to look after Lainey and all her loved one's as we all miss them very much.No doubt she will be having the best get together with her Mum,Dad,Mother in-law,little sister Diane & best friend Michele that she love dearly.Heaven will be such a warmer place with her presence.All i ask is that you the angels in heaven look after them as they will be looking after us.
From her Niece(god daughter)Danielle & Thomas(Husband)xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So much has happened Elaine and you have not been here to see it. I miss you so much and cant believe of all people you were not at my 21st. I know you were there in spirit though. I wish that you were just on the end of the phone for a chat or a hug. I love you and think of you always. Your Lassie xxxx
My Wife
No more pain and no more fear
I know you're happy where you are
Although i see you everyday
In my thoughts and in my dreams
I miss you more than words can say
I try to be strong for others around
But all i want to do is cry
I just sit for hours by myself
And ask the question 'Why'?
It's the strongest pain I've ever felt
I don't think I could describe it
Although I try, I do my best
I don't think that I can hide it
My life will never be the same
That's why it's hard to bear
Because since the day you left me
I think that life's not fair
Some things seem not to matter now
Even things that mattered before
You have no idea what I would give up
To make this pain less sore
People say we'll meet again
And yes I know that's true
But I wish it didn't have to be this way
Because you know how much I miss you
I love you with all my heart and soul
And there's one thing you need to know
There's not one person in the human race
That could ever take your place
Forever Yours Elaine
Your Big Boy

2010
I do not need a special day to bring you to my mind.
The days I do not think of you are very hard to find.
Each morning when I awake I know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache as I try to carry on.
My heart still aches with sadness and my daily tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you no one will ever know.
My thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill.
In life I loved you dearly; in death I love you still
I miss you so much Elaine

Missing You
My Wonderful God Mother I Miss You xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Love You.
Missing You Everyday xxxx
It's hard to face tomorrow,
When someone you love has gone,
Its harder still to realise,
that our lives still go on.
The heartbreak and the sorrow
Might not always show,
People say it lessens
How little do they know,
They say we have our memories,
But they don't understand,
You cannot kiss a memory's face,
Or hold a memory's hand.
I want to send a message,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to live without.
So rest in peace my dear angel,
And thanks for all you've done,
I pray that god has given you,
The crown you've truly won
