Just got back from the cemetary, it is so hard to believe it is 17yrs today since you were laid to rest there, the weather here is awful today so don't know if the flowers will last anytime, or if they even remain there as the wind is really bad they will probably be scattered all over the place. Spoke to your mate Craig on the phone last night won't be long now till him and his wife Deborah come to visit, really looking forward to it. I see Deborah has left a message for you, I wish she could have met you too, but between Craig and myself (once we meet) I am sure she will feel as if she has, don't know if thats a good thing or not, LOL. only joking!! I am sure if she had met you she would have liked the young man you had become, a genuine caring person, that was shown by the numbers of people that turned up 17 yrs ago to pay there respects to you. Miss you loads, Love MUM xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
