It has taken almost 3 years, but I've finally found the ability to create this site in memory of my
brother.
Its so difficult to find the right words which will inevitably be woefully inadequate. Intelligent,
sporty, witty and sensitive, my brother really did have so much to live for. But his personal
stengths became weaker as he battled for years against the invisible demon of his mental health.
It is truly heart breaking to see a persons character slowly deteriorate into a shadow of their
former self, whilst remaining powerless to offer any realistic degree of help or hope.
I remember the good times with much warmth, but the difficult times with such sadness. I remember
my brother looking at me with completely lucid eyes and trying as hard as he possibly could to
explain that for him, life really was too much of a challenge. He knew it was impossible for me to
understand, but he tried.
We miss him more than we can ever explain with words, but treasure all those really good times. I
take some comfort from knowing that the torment is now over and hope with all my heart that one day
somebody somewhere finds a way of properly understanding the complexities of the human mind -
medical science really does have a long long way to go.
Uncle Dan
I wish you were here to meet your neice, she was born 10 March 2009 and we named her Lyla (after the song on that last Oasis album). You would love her Dan, she is absolutely perfect and we love her to bits. Keep an eye out for her if you can, she is still so little and we worry about her all day and all night but I hope she grows in to a big strong girl. I'll tell her all about you one day... XXX
To the living, I am gone,
To the sorrowful, I will never return,
To the angry, I was cheated,
But to the happy, I am at peace,
And to the faithful, I have never left.
I cannot speak, but I can listen.
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.
So as you stand upon a shore gazing at a beautiful sea--
As you look upon a flower and admire it's simplicity--
Remember Me.
Remember me in your heart.
Your thoughts, and your memories,
Of the times we loved,
The times we cried,
The times we fought,
The times we laughed.
For if you always think of me,
I will never have gone.
Not Far Away
by: Granna
When I have gone before your sight
I won't be far away
Try looking toward heaven
On a bright and sunny day
You know that you could catch
A glimps of my evanescent wings
Colours mingled together
Like indigo lemons and greens.
So If you reach out to touch them
My arms can envelope you
To give you hope and courage
To grow like you're meant to do.
So take comfort when you think of me
Keep the memories locked in your heart,
The ones that made you laugh a lot
Before I had to depart.
I really am so sorry for your loss. My stepson Gary took his life just over three months ago & it is unbearably hard to deal with.
I find a lot of strength through the messages that are left on his website from parents , friends & family of people who have taken their life. They are are the only ones who truly know how we feel. The pain of losing someone, the guilt & the questions about how you could maybe have done something to stop them. But I always try to find comfort in the thought that it was their choice and their decision.
I'm glad you've decided to do this website in your brothers memory. I know that it helps me to 'talk' about my son & also to him and I hope you find that comfort also.
SILENT TEARS

I'm right here in your Heart
When tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see.
If the sun should rise and find your eyes, all filled
with tears for me; I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today, While thinking of the many
things we didn't get to say, I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you. And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too; But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand. That an angel came and called my
name and took me by the hand, and said my place was ready
In Heaven far above, and that I'd have to leave behind, All those
things I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away, A tear fell from my eye,
For all of life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, So much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared, And all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday, Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you, and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized, that that could never be,
For emptiness and memories, Would take the place of me.
And when I thought of Worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did, My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through Heaven's gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, From his great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity, and all I've promised you.
Today your life on Earth is past, But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last, and since each day's the same day,
There's no longing for the past. But you have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true, Though there were times you did some
things, you know you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven, And now at last you're free,
So won't you take my hand And share My life with Me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart, for every time you think of me,
I'm right here in your Heart
Sent with love ★
Thinking of you all this Christmas time without your loved ones.
Were all suffering the same agony while our Angels will be partying up above.
Keep strong and keep their memories going. Were thinking of you all with lots of love..
