Shaun was suddenly gone from our lives, but we will never forget. Theres not a day that goes by
where he is not in our thoughts. Loved and sadly missed by Hayley, and his daughter Skye and son Leo
xxxx Goodnight, sleep peacefully xxxx





Distance takes us far apart
And darkens my today,
I have to keep remembering-
You’re just a thought away.
When the world is too confusing,
And times are hard to bear,
I pull your precious meaning,
Your bright spirit, from the air.
And if I sometimes drift
into a lonely state of mind,
I gather up the memories
Of the days now left behind.
And though you’re not beside me,
I can tap into my heart
And draw upon the warmth and love
That now lives while we’re apart.
And with these fond reflections
On the times when you were near,
I sense a little bit of what
it’s like to have you here...

An Angel Appeared

*•.¸. ♥ ¸.•*★*•.¸. ♥ ¸.•*★*•.¸. ♥ ¸.•*★*•.¸. ♥ ¸.•*★


I was sad and all alone,
The worst feeling I had known.
I felt a hand reach out to me,
Somehow set my spirit free.
I looked to see who was there.
There was no one standing there.
I thought I'd felt a feathery wing,
Thought I heard an Angel sing.
I felt a soft warm breeze,
As my pain began to ease.
I had a feeling I was not alone.
The strangest feeling I had known.
In the darkest hour an Angel appears,
Gently caressing away my fears.
I must be protected by an Angel's love,
God sent down from up above.All My Love Anne xxx

RIP young man and help your wife and children to cope with the tragedy. Also remember me to my son Mohammad who left us like you in his youth when he was only 23. Peace be on you both in the eternal life till we all join again.

Gone yet not forgotten,
although we are apart,
your spirit lives within me,
forever in my heart.

In tears I saw you sinking,
I watched you fade away.
You suffered much in silence,
you fought so hard to stay.
You faced your task with courage.
Your spirit did not bend,
and still you kept on fighting until the very end.
God saw you getting tired.
When a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you and whispered 'come to me'.
So when I saw you sleeping So peaceful, free from pain.
I could not wish you back
to suffer that again

Each night we shed a silent tear,
As we speak to you in prayer.
To let you know we love you,
And just how much we care.
Take our million teardrops,
Wrap them up in love,
Then ask the wind to carry them,
To you in heaven above.

Hayley (Close Friend) August 5, 2008

God called your name so gently
That only you could hear
No-one heard the footsteps
Of the angel drawing near
Softly from the shadows
There came a gentle call
You closed your eyes and went to sleep
And quietly left us all.


god bless sleep tight xxxx

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to Heaven
And bring you back again

No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No on will ever know

But know we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store

Since you’ll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you’ll always stay
