Tony Canino was serving at a military hospital near Cirencester when he met Joyce Stickland. A sudden posting away meant he never got to see her again and they both went their separate ways.

On Thursday Tony came back to Gloucestershire to place a flower on her grave and say goodbye to the woman he always loved.

On Friday's show we heard your stories of your first love.

We had a great response with your tales of your First Love on the show.

Angela Kelly got in touch with this story...

I had a lovely cousin called Mary who lived in Jersey. Her father was a farm owner and ruled his family of three daughters and a son very strictly. When Mary was a young girl she fell in love with a local boy who had an ordinary job. Her father did not approve because he didn't come from a similar background. He wanted to marry Mary but her father would not allow it. Mary complied with her father's wishes and remained a spinster and lived at home all her life. Her boyfriend eventually married someone else and her sisters and brother married. After her father died she continued to live as a wonderful companion to her step mother who loved her as her own.

Tragically, at the age of 52, Mary died of cancer. In her hospital room, during her last few days, a red rose appeared. Her stepmother asked her who it was from. Mary said "I KNOW WHO IT IS FROM." Mary's stepmother told me of her sorrow that she had not been allowed to marry the man she loved.
