Hi, Im Emily, Annas big sister.
On January 11th, 2007, Anna was found dead in her Crawley flat by her friend. She had hung herself.
Anna was 21 years old at the time she died. She left a suicide note to our mum, which read 'I
love you. Hold on and be strong'.
Anna was one of 5 - Emily, Anna, Jenny, Izzy and Hannes. We lost our younger sister, Isabel (Izzy)
in exactly the same way in November 2006. Anna, as with all of us were devasted to lose Izzy in such
a tragic way. (Please visit Izzys website on GoneTooSoon).
Anna was a beautiful, strong, generous person who touched everyone that she met. Her suicide has
shocked us all deeply. Our father Peter also committed suicide in 2005 which it seems set off a
series of tragic events.
Words cant express how much we miss Anna and Izzy. Please light a candle on both my beautiful
sisters websites and keep their memory alive. The only thing that we hang onto is that they are
together again, in peace.
'For everything I touch, you touch,
Every step I take, you take,
Every breath I breathe, you breathe,
Every move I make, you make.
I told you we'd make it to the sunshine one day,
You just got there a little quicker'
(Tupac Shakur, The Good Die Young)

keep their flame burning X
Memory is a lovely lane
Where hearts are ever true
A lane we so often travel down
Because it leads to you.
I am so sorry that I have not been on the site as much recently, but I am always thinking of you and your family with love. God bless. Angie xx
"Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace"
Angel
Now find that special place for me
deep inside your heart,
And I will always be there for you
no matter how far apart.
Guardian angel
Guardian Angel from heaven so bright,
Watching beside me to lead me aright,
Fold thy wings round me, and guard me with love,
Softly sing songs to me of heaven above.
Amen.
Beautiful Anna
Such a beautiful girl. She and Izzy both. May sweet precious memories of Anna sustain you through the rough times. They join my Steven in Heaven.
My darling Anna.
Remembering three years ago today when you celebrated my birthday with Izzy and Hannes in Dorset.
I can still see you and Izzy 'playing' on the children's swings.... having such a fun time.
We had such a lovely dinner in the clubhouse at Eype. A great time on the beach at West Bay. Those days were filled with so much laughter. I was a mother blessed with five wonderful children.
Today, my birthday, will be spent visiting you and Izzy at your final resting place. I am now a mother crippled with grief, but still a mother blessed with five wonderful much loved children.
You and Izzy will always be in my heart, my soul, my very being.
Love you darling, you and Izzy are still with me.

Dear Child of Mine
by Unknown Author
Dear child of mine,
Who died before your time,
I am grateful for your life.
Though death brought the end of hopes and dreams,
I am still grateful for your life.
Through you I have known joy and sorrow,
Laughter and tears.
Through you my life has been enriched,
My compassion heightened,
And I am more keenly aware of the grief of others.
I am grateful for your life.
Now I draw upon my memories of you,
Some happy and some sad.
They keep me close in so many ways.
They are priceless.
Precious memories that help me bear the pain.
Through them I will learn to live again.
I am grateful for your life.
I have been blessed by your life
And left with your love.
I will share that love, and strive to live,
To be a blessing to others.
Dear child of mine, though you died before your time,
You are never far away from me.
I have locked you in my heart of hearts
And there I will love you through eternity.
I am grateful for your life - dear child of mine......
The Next Place
By Warren Hanson
The next place that I go
Will be as peaceful and familiar
As a sleepy summer Sunday
And a sweet, untroubled mind.
And yet . . .
It won't be anything like any place I've ever been. . .
Or seen. . . or even dreamed of
In the place I leave behind.
I won't know where I'm going,
And I won't know where I've been
As I tumble through the always
And look back toward the when.
I'll glide beyond the rainbows.
I'll drift above the sky.
I'll fly into the wonder, without ever wondering why.
I won't remember getting there.
Somehow I'll just arrive.
But I'll know that I belong there
And will feel much more alive
Than I have ever felt before.
I will be absolutely free of the things that I held onto
That were holding onto me.
The next place that I go
Will be so quiet and so still
That the whispered song of sweet belonging will rise up to fill
The listening sky with joyful silence,
And with unheard harmonies
Of music made by no one playing,
Like a hush upon breeze.
There will be no room for darkness in that place of living light,
Where an ever-dawning morning pushes back the dying night.
The very air will fill with brilliance, as the brightly shining sun
And the moon and half a million stars are married into one.
The next place that I go Won't really be a place at all.
There won't be any seasons --
Winter, summer, spring or fall --
Nor a Monday, Nor a Friday,
Nor December, Nor July.
And the seconds will be standing still. . .
While hours hurry by.
I will not be a boy or girl,
A woman or man.
I'll simply be just, simply, me.
No worse or better than.
My skin will not be dark or light.
I won't be fat or tall.
The body I once lived in
Won't be part of me at all.
I will finally be perfect.
I will be without a flaw.
I will never make one more mistake,
Or break the smallest law.
And the me that was impatient,
Or was angry, or unkind,
Will simply be a memory.
The me I left behind.
I will travel empty-handed.
There is not a single thing
I have collected in my life
That I would ever want to bring Except. . .
The love of those who loved me,
And the warmth of those who cared.
The happiness and memories
And magic that we shared.
Though I will know the joy of solitude. . .
I'll never be alone. I'll be embraced
By all the family and friends I've ever known.
Although I might not see their faces,
All our hearts will beat as one,
And the circle of our spirits
Will shine brighter than the sun.
I will cherish all the friendship I was fortunate to find,
All love and all the laughter in the place I leave behind.
All these good things will go with me.
They will make my spirit glow.
And that light will shine forever In the next place that I go.
Dear All,
As this is going to be a difficult week for our family I am lighting the candles & tribute for this week today.
I want to make sure all your angels don’t miss out on the candles and tributes I hope you all understand
I will be back on Sunday with Monday’s candle
It would have been Christopher’s Birthday on Wednesday, he was on his way home from having a drink to celebrate his 27th Birthday when the accident happened and sadly he died 2 days later.

Tribute For The Weekend
I'm sending a dove to heaven
With a parcel on its wings.
Be careful how you open it
It’s full of beautiful things
Inside are a million kisses
Wrapped up in a million hugs
To say how much you mean to us
And send you all our love
♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥
Babies are angels
That fly to earth
Their wings disappear
At the time of there birth
One look in their eye
And we're never the same
They're part of us now
And that part has a name
That part is your heart
And a bond that won’t sever
Our babies are angels
And we love them forever
♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥
It happens without warning
Time and time again
I go along and join the flow
But still remember when
You were there to share it all
That made it all worth while
The memories keep flooding back
And once again I smile
Then reality returns to me
And once again your gone
If only this little dream I have
Could simply just go on
I try and hide the heartache
But I feel it none the less
These are my words I send to you
I MISS YOU……..
♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥•:*:•♥ •:*:•♥
Just the average family
We didn't ask for more.
Then life was changed completely
With that knock upon our door.
This awful thing had happened
And none of us knew why.
You were never coming back again
And we didn't say goodbye.
Our world just fell to pieces
We cried with disbelief.
We had to stick together
To overcome our grief.
We'll never understand it
It all seems so unfair.
We wish we'd hear that knock again
And see you standing there.

Thoughts Today Memories Forever
Angela Christopher’s Very Proud Mum
"My Baby's Gone" - Robin and Linda Williams
CHORUS:
Hold back the rushing minutes
Make the wind lie still
Don't let the moonlight shine
Across the lonely hill
Dry all the raindrops
And hold back the sun
My world has ended
My baby's gone
The Milkman whistles softly
As he comes up to my door
The Mailman brings the letters by
Just like he did before
They seem so busy all day long
As though there's nothing wrong,
Don't they know the world has ended
My Baby's Gone
chorus
I wake up sometimes in the night
And realize you're gone
And then I toss upon my bed
And wait for day to come
I try to tell my lonely heart
It must go on alone
But it cries the world has ended
My Baby's Gone
