Selwyn Auger passed away unexpectedly on 16th May 2008 at Prince Charles Hospital, Merthyr Tydfil aged 70.
What can I say about Uncle Selywn, he was a wonderful person, who spoke his mind but was always kind and caring. He touched the lives of so many people over the years.
He was like a father to me and a grandfather to my 5 children, my youngest called him Grandpa and loved him to bits.
Uncle Selwyn had been ill for quite a while and had been in and out of hospital a lot over the last few years, we thought he was finally on the mend, my mum rang me to say that the hospital had phoned her to go up to the hospital but by the time we got there he had already passed. He will be greatly missed by both family and friends alike.
The funeral service was held on Thursday 29th May 2008 at The Salvation Army Citadel in Merthyr Tydfil at 10.20am followed by cremation at Llwyndcoed Crematorium at 11.20. After days upon end of rain we all got up to beautiful sunshine and a blue sky the perfect weather to see Uncle Selwyn off.
The family would like to thank everyone that attended the service for their kind thoughts and comments.
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not meant to be,
So he put his arms around you
and whispered "Come to Me".
With tearful eyes we saw you,
as you had passed away.
Although we loved you deeply,
we could not make you stay.
Your Golden Heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
Thankyou in advance to anyone that takes the time to light a candle for my wonderful Uncle.
Merry xmas xxx

There's a very special place beyond the skies above
somewhere very peaceful that is full of light and Love
That special place is Heaven, where you're free to laugh and roam
it was your time to go there so the angels took you home
And though you're in our thoughts each day throughout the year
at special times like Christmas we all Wish you could be here
Now you're in a better place, your soul is laid to rest
safe with all the Angels for they only take the best

♥ Christmas In Heaven ♥
We're wondering what Christmas in Heaven is like
As we grieve alone and pray
longing for one who has gone before
To spend Christmas in Heaven today
And so in our dreams we wander far
From the scenes and sounds of earth
‘Till we catch the strains of the Heavenly choir
As they sing of the Christ Child's birth
The Angels we envision there
As they join in the festive play
And there amid the throng is our Loved One
Spending Christmas in Heaven today
There's joy in the faith that teaches
When our life's work is done
Of a place in Heaven awaiting
And the crown we worked for is won
In our grief may we learn well the lesson
So to work and suffer and pray
As to merit the joys of our loved one
And to spend Christmas together some day

Like a father to me
Uncle Selwyn, you may not have been my real dad but you were always like a father to me, you were there for me right at the beginning and although circumstances beyond our control seperated us for many years you were always in my thoughts, you were my second father and became a grandpa to all my children. So today I wish you a very Happy Fathers Day from us all xxxxxx

Rest your weary head and drift off into dreams,
Frolic in the sunshine and bathe in God's moonbeams.
Use the stars as stepping-stones to take you to your peace,
The pain of life forgotten now you have found release.
Without rain a flower folds, the petals drop and die,
There was no way to save you, you couldn't even cry.
So we cry all the tears instead as we must let you go
To Heaven, and God's garden to blossom and to grow.
The little seed is planted, you'll be watered every day,
The angels will tend all your needs as in their arms you lay.
Your life will be amazing now and full of wondrous things,
Rest in peace, our dear, sweet Selwyn, go fly on angels wings.

For My Grandpa
Grandparents bestow upon their grandchildren
The strength and wisdom that time
And experience have given them.
Grandchildren bless their Grandparents
With a youthful vitality and innocence
That help them stay young at heart forever.
Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past with the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part...

Love you lots
from your grandson Zach xxx
For our Uncle Selwyn
When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a wonderful treasure.
We love and miss you still

On your Angel Anniversary Uncle Selwyn xxx
Only one year has passed,
Though it feels like longer.
People say things will get better,
I don't feel any stronger.
At times I sit and cry
missing you, oh, so much.
The way we laughed, your smile,
deep in my heart you have forever touched.
Not a day goes by that you don't come to my mind,
I think about you, I miss you
I wish you were here with me
I know you wish you were here too.
Things aren't the same without you here,
So many things that you are missing.
I sit here thinking of you,
dreaming, I'm reminiscing.
I hope your happy where ever you are now,
I smile thinking of the good times we had.
through good times and bad times,
when you were happy, when you were mad.
Forever you will stay within my heart,
I'll never forget you.
I cherish you forever,
you were amazing....you were true.
