Our darling Gareth most precious son of Dave and Sharon. Beloved brother to Samantha and Amy.
Gareth suffered for 2 years from a cruel brain tumour ( glioblastoma)
After 2 brain opps and endless treatments the cancer got to him in the end.
Gareth worked with his dad as a painter and decorator, he was a fun loving party annimal and a huge
Madonna fan, he really was beautiful inside and outside.
When Gareth knew he wasnt going to get better he planned his own funeral with so much bravery and
courage beyond belief, everything had to be perfect, typical of Gareth he was a perfectionist,
He was to see his beloved Madonna in Cardiff on July 30th 06,
At this time he couldnt walk and the 4 hour journey there seemed immpossible but Gareth being Gareth
was going, me and his Dad went for the weekend and against the odds stacked against us we got him
there he had to go in a wheelchair but he saw her for the last time.
It was after we got home that Gareth starting to get really ill.
The bravery and courage facing his own death was out of this world. but the pain we had to endure
watching our darling child go through this was unbearable.
Gareth lost his battle on 8 sept 06 at home surounded by his loving family
he passed away so peacefully, watching my brave Gareth take his last breath was heartbreaking.
The picture of Gareth in his cowboy hat was taken 2 years before he died at a Madonna concert.If you
go on his photo gallery the picture with his thumbs up was on his way to his last madonna
concert.Music playing Madonna-------- LITTLE STAR.
FOREVER YOUNG, ETERNALLY BEUATIFULL NO MORE PAIN MY SON XXXX
MY DARLING GARETH
A Glimpse
Sometimes I think I catch a glimpse
of you standing just close by
I turn and see that you're not there
at the corner of my eye.
I want so much to turn around
and see you standing there,
for you to stay and let me touch
your hands, your face, your hair.
I long to hear you call me Mum
in your beloved voice.
I want you so to stay with me
but I know you have no choice.
So I'll keep on trying to catch a glimpse
when you're just beyond my sight
I feel you there, I know it's true,
and not a trick of the light.
I know one day there'll come a time,
when there'll be no doubt I'm sure.
I'll find you there with arms outstretched
and be home with you once more
My Darling Garethxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
As the sun came up this morning
I watched you there below
Your hearts seemed oh, so heavy
But theres something you sould know
I'm not gone don't worry
I'm just a step ahead
And i'm with you every single day
As you rise up from your bed
I am the sun that warms you
I am the moons soft glow
I am the stars that twinkle
And lights your path below
So when at times you miss me
Just look for me i'm there
For you cannot hide my spirit
It's with you everywhere
My Love To You Always ~~ Jane...x♥x
Why did you have to leave me
why did you have to die?
Was I not meant to keep you
why do I have to cry?
I want you back here with us
things can never be the same
how can I just go on each day
and play life's awful game?
You were my much wanted son
I love you very much
I'll never again see you laugh or cry
or feel your gentle touch
I need to get some answers
my questions seem ignored
I feel so lost and lonely here
oh, help me please my lord
take good care of my son
now you've taken him from me
wrap him tightly in your arms
and kiss him tenderly
please tell him that I love him so
and will wait forever more
and save a place for me one day
when i'll be whole once more
Lots Of Love Always ~~ Jane...x♥x

NATURE'S WONDERS

Have you ever wondered what makes the wind blow?
Could it be our loved ones blowing us a kiss?
Have you ever wondered what makes the stars shine?
Is it our loved ones keeping watch over us while we sleep?
Have you ever wondered what makes the skies cry?
Could it be our loved ones missing us?
Have you ever wondered what makes the sun shine?
Is it our loved ones giving us a warm hug?
Have you ever wondered what makes the ocean waves come pounding to shore?
Could it be our loved ones wanting to touch us once more?
There are so many of natures wonders and do we really know why?
Is there a higher power making sure we always remember the loved one we’ve lost and shall never forget.

The flowers may wither the sun may set, but as long as we live we will never forget.
Your memory is precious, it will never grow old.
Its engraved in our hearts in letter of gold.
Love from Uncle Martin, Auntie Tracy, Danielle & Lewis xxx
When you feel you miss me most,
As years go driftin by,
Each memory will prove to you,
That love can never die,
That while I left you far too soon,
I did not go alone,
For the father sent his angels,
To gently take me home,
Take comfort when you think of me,
Hold my love deep within your heart,
And with the warmth of every memory,
We will never be apart.

MY DARLING GARETH
this one for my son
No words I write can ever say
how much I miss you everyday.
As time goes by, the loneliness grows,
How I miss you, nobody knows.
I think of you in silence,
I often speak your name.
But all I have are memories,
And a photo in a frame.
No one sees me weep.
But the love I have for you,
Is in my heart, and mine to keep.
I have never stopped loving you
and I know I never will.
Deep inside my heart,
You are with me still.
Heartaches, this world are many,
But mine is worse than any.
My heart still aches, as I whisper low,
"I need you... and miss you so."
The things we feel so deeply
are often the hardest things to say.
But I just can't keep quiet anymore,
So I'll tell you any ways.
There is a place within my heart
that no one else can fill.
I love you and I always will
Your 2nd anniversary Son xxx
The pain in my heart is unberable to bear.
without you my Gareth, all I want is you home,
Love you more than words can say please be safe, nigh night Blossom. Mum xxxxxx

If we could have a lifetime wish
and one dream that could come true
We would pray to God with all our
hearts just to see and speak to you
A thousand words won’t bring you back
We know because we’ve tried
and neither will a million tears
We know because we’ve cried
You’ve left behind our broken hearts
and precious memories too
But we’ve never wanted memories
We only wanted you
Always in our thoughts
Forever in our hearts

Precious child.
In my dreams you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child.
In my my mind, I see you clear as a bell,
Precious child, Precious child.
In my soul there is a hole that can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope ' cause you are with me still.
In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world. I was left to grieve,
precious child, precious child.
