Ricky Taylor was a good friend of mine and although he was tragically killed by a motorbike accident he wil continue to be. He died and left his young girl-friend, sister, mother and father as well as everybody who knew him absolutely heart-broken and shocked by his death. I first met ricky when we were only kids. I seen him as a younger brother and always had time for him as he did for me. I could not believe he was taken at such a young age and even now to this day can't believe he is gone. "I will always love you little brother and will look out for your family now that your gone. Rest in peace and one day i will see you again Dia le do thóil". (please god)
we placed some flowers on your grave the other day Ricky...i'm sure your very proud of how well your Mum has been looking after it for you...Rest in peace XXX.
Ricky
God gave him grace -but the devil gave him style
He was only on loan - but for too short a while
God needed a star who could shine on above
with a pocket full of rainbows and a heart full of love.
Love from Liz & Stuart x
Just for today I will try to live through the next 24 hours and not expect to
get over my sons death, but instead learn to live with it just one day at a time.
Just for today I will remember my son’s life, not his death, and bask in
the comfort of all those treasured days and moments we shared.
Just for today I will forgive all the family and friends who didn't help or
comfort me the way I needed them to. They truly did not know how.
Just for today I will smile no matter how much I hurt on the inside, for
maybe if I smile a little, my heart will soften and I will begin to heal.
Just for today I will reach out to comfort a relative or friend of my son,
for they are hurting too, and perhaps we can comfort each other.
Just for today I will free myself from my self-inflicted burden of guilt, for
deep in my heart I know if there was anything in this world I could have done to save my son from death, I would have done it.
Just for today I will honour my son’s memory by doing something with another child because I know that would have made my own child proud.
Just for today I will offer my hand in friendship to another bereaved parent,
for I do know how they feel.
Just for today when my heart feels like breaking, I will stop and remember
that grief is the price we pay for loving and the only reason I hurt is
because I had the privilege of loving so much.
Just for today I will not compare myself with others. I am fortunate to be
who I am and to have had my son for as long as I did.
Just for today I will allow myself to be happy, for I know that I am not
deserting him by living on.
Just for today I will accept that I did not die when my son did, my life
did go on, and I am the only one who can make that life worthwhile once more.
Just for Today
He is not gone I look at his photos
And have to smile
Can I tell you about him
For a little while?
First thought of the morning
Last one of the day
I’d wonder about
What pranks he’d play!
A rogue, whose humour
Forgave the sin
A joyful clown
With an impish grin
A grownup boy
And people lover
Sought by his friends
Adored by his mother
Have a lovely weekend. Love from Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum xx

I remember everything about you,
your voice, you smile, your touch,
the way you walked, the way you talked,
the way you looked at me, meant so much.
I remember all the words you said to me,
some funny, some kind, some wise,
all of the things you did for me,
I see now with different eyes.
I remember every moment we shared,
seems like only yesterday,
or maybe it was eons ago,
It's really hard to say.
You are gone from me now,
but one they can't take away,
your memory resides inside my heart,
and lights up my darkest days...
In my thoughts and prayers always. Love Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum x
We Remember Them
At the rising of the sun and its going down,
we remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter,
we remember them.
At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring,
we remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer,
we remember them.
At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of autumn,
we remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends,
we remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
When we are weary and in need of strength,
we remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart,
we remember them.
When we have joy we crave to share,
we remember them.
When we have decisions that are difficult to make,
we remember them.
When we have achievements that are based on theirs,
we remember them.
As long as we live, they, too, will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
Love from Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum xx

We'll Never Say Goodbye.

I cannot see you with my eyes
Or hear you with my ears,
But thoughts of you are with me still
And often dry my tears.
You whistle in the rustling leaves,
That linger in the fall
And in the gentle evening breeze,
I'm sure I hear your call.
A part of you remains with me
That none can take away,
It gives me strength to carry on,
At dawning of new day.
I think of happy times we shared
And then I softly sigh
But then I know - we'll meet again
And never say goodbye.
