Simon was my only child who I bought up on my own. It was always me and him against the world. I wish a million times a day that I had realised the pain he was in, but he hid it well.
He was full of fun and life and had many friends and cared about everyone that crossed his path. I remember him coming to visit me when I was working in the Isle of Man. Of course we went clubbing and about 3 o'clock in morning I went looking for him to go home and he was outside sitting talking to a tramp. All I heard all the way home was about his converstion with this guy and what they'd talked about. He was genuinely so interested in what the guy had to say! He felt so much for other people and their lives.
I love and miss you so much Simon, my life will never be the same without you. I promise you that I will go on living to make sure that I look after your grandpa who I know was so special to you and also to look after your beautiful children and make sure that they never ever forget who their daddy was and how much they were loved. They talk about you regularly and love you so so much.
You were the best son a mother could have ever had I am so very very proud to have been able to call you mine.
With a million hugs and kisses to keep you until we can be together again, Ma xxx
I often think of you...
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air. . . .
Up, up the long, delirious burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or ever eagle flew —
And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

I remember a cheeky 4 year old full of fun and laughter who had a brilliant relationship with his Mum which continued throughout his life. I remember a teenager - bit moody, but aren't they all? I remember a doting Dad. Simon, I think of you often - truthfully, in anger, sometimes because of the devastating effect your actions had on my best friend. Then, I think to myself.... I know you will be watching over her and Erin and Louis. You would be happy to know that both children have cheeky attitudes just like you!

Hi Sweetheart
Well today I've had a lovely afternoon with Maria, her mum and dad and sister Karen, Matt and Aki and their girlfriends and Steve and Andrew, after going to view your headstone which they all seemed to like. I have heard some good stories about you and your "stitch up" antics!! Just so wish you could have been here to laugh too. Love you so so much xxxx
My darling
Hiya darling. Sally and I got together tonight and talked so much about you and the messages you left. I still struggle with the logicality of your messages and your mind set that took you! I am trying and will keep doing so because of my love for you and your Erin and Louis. Sleep tight my darling I love you so so much xxx
My beautiful son
My darling I am missing you so much tonight. It is so hard to bear the thought that you felt in such despair. We had always talked and helped each other but you didn't talk and I didn't realise how bad you were hurting. I am so sorry my angel I love you so so much.
Your beautiful children stayed on friday night and all Erin was concerned about was that there be flowers on your grave on the anniversary and on your birthday 2nd January. She was afraid it would be missed because I am going away to avoid Xmas. I reassured her that we will be there for you with flowers as always. We all love you darling xx

The Best Friend
To the best mate that anyone could ever be blessed with!
Miss you so much pal, i still can't belive that you're not here, i doubt i'll ever get used to that. I'll always remember the great times we had, Just you & me going to Liverpool to pick up poppy, all the long heart to hearts we had, and the great nights around town and the general banter.
I will never forgive you for convincing me to go out dressed as Santa Clause on christmas eve telling me that there would be loads of people dressed like that, only to find out i was the only one dressed as that the whole night!! What a pratt i felt! haha!
You were like 'the big brother' aswell as my best friend to me and helped me with a lot of things i needed to get off my chest. You gave me the time that nobody else really would and for that i will always be grateful.
You'll never be forgotten, as you live on in your children. Sleep tight mate, and keep looking over your family. James xx
Good Bye
I know my time has ended,
Its time for me to leave.
I want you all to know,
You mean so much to me.
Why I had to go,
Was a mystery to me.
All I heard was God,
Saying “ Please come home to me.”
So I left my friends and family,
I didn’t say goodbye.
All I got to see,
Were the tears in their eyes.
But as I saw them crying,
I asked them not to grieve.
Knowing how much we care,
That our love will never cease.
You can look up at the sky,
And look over to the sea.
When you feel that gentle breeze,
You always think of me.
And when your time comes,
To join me up above.
We will be reunited,
And still, we will have our love.
