Stephen James Gildea (STEVE)
Passed away 04-01-03 sadly AGE 43.
Originally from Dovecot, L14, before joining the Kings Regiment.
Lived in Croxteth with wife Janet, and children Toni, Stephen & Michaela.
I have created this site in memory of my Dad, who I loved so so much. He meant the world to us all.
He was the oldest child of his loving Mum Betty from Dovecot. And loving son of Brian. Loving brother to Maria, Maureen, Jackie and Brian. And amazing uncle to all his nieces and nephews from both sides.
Great friend to everyone that knew him.
My Dad loved to go fishing with his mates and my brother Stephen.
He also loved his pigeons, he hardly ever won any races though but it was his passion. You could forever hear him whistling away in the shed to get them in, I`d love to hear him do that again. . .
We released white pigeons instead of doves at his funeral to mark his soul going to Heaven.
My Dad was a really funny man and had a very dry sense of humour to everyone that knew him. He would help anyone out regardless, even if he didnt want to coz he just couldnt say NO, then he`d moan about it afterwards. Haha
Watching someone I loved fade away from me so quick was the worst thing I have ever experinced in my life and so heartbreaking there was not a single thing anyone could have done to stop it. I`m so sorry Dad, I know you didnt want to leave us.
I love and miss you more than any word could ever describe. Its hurts coz I miss him so bad, honestly. Didn`t think it would be this bad Dad.
I want you back so so much and things the way they used to be. . .
Love you always, until we meet again gudnite Dad x Forever young x
My beautiful Dad
My gorgeous brave Dad, god you will never know the pain I feel every day. I miss you so much, no one ever knows how much or ever will till theyve been through it.

Dad, u should be here to see ur new Grandaughter. She is just perfect in every way, shes got ur dark skin and hair. And I wish you were here to see her and marnie grow up dont worry we will tell them all about you love & miss you always Toni x
Dad I am still so saddened by the day you actaually told us you had cancer, we had only just lost me nan a couple of months before and I just knew we were going to lose you aswell.
I will never ever forget your heartbroken face that night you sat the 3 of us down and broke it to us in our living room it will haunt me forvever Dad.
I tried to keep it together for you but secretly died inside as I watched you slowley be taken from us so cruel in so much pain.
I often think back on the fantastic memories we have left of you and flick through all the pictures we`ve got but there nothing compared to actually being able to squezze you in my arms like we used to.
Things seem to plodding along down here but the house is so empty without you. Its like its just come to a stop and even Marnie running round it all day hasnt improved the atmosphrere from when you were here in it with us.
What I would do or give to bring you back,. . . well words would never describe it.
Stephen misses you like mad, I can see it in his eyes when hes in that loft on his own & michaelas grown up a bit now, still mad Micky tho like u used to say dusnt give a sh*te for nothing.
And then theres me, what can I say. I cant even talk about you without filling up. Never gets any easier.
Miss you so much Dad, always x
ur the brightest star in the sky dad i miss u more than anyone will ever imagine.. shine down on us all dad keep us safe.. love u. x
