Jacob was a happy outgoing boy who always had an optomistic outlook on life.He was an apprentice
carpenter learning all aspects of the building trade and enjoying his work.He has two sisters and a
brother who all miss him desperately as do I.He had a little niece of only 1year old who will never
get to know him now and a stepdad who misses his lively conversations! Jacob was only 17 when his
life was taken from him by someone else in a violent unprovoked attack.We all miss him desperately
every day and it does not get any easier with time despite what people may think!Every day that
passes takes me further away from the last time we spent together. We all love and miss you xxxxx

Another year passes without you.I often wonder what you would be doing now, how you would have grown, would your jokes still be as bad!! Love and miss you every day.It does not get any easier with time in fact Im finding it harder just lately,maybe its because we have moved house and your not here to share it with us.Everyone thinks of you often and friends have sent messages today to us all.Hugs hugs and more hugs.Love and a million kisses mum XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
hey babe.

hey jake,
times flown by seems only yesterday we were laughing and joking around. its been hard since you've gone i still remember that night, giving you a hug and saying goodbye but not realizing it would be the last time i say it. you were the greatest friend ever; we went from nursery to high school together and those years were great. to this day i still cry when i visit your grave but i smile cause i think of the memories. missing you every day babes. i lost a friend but gained an amazing angel. love chez xxx
Christmas is nearly here again and I miss you more and more every day.Love you so much.Mum XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
hello jake. it sure has been a while. i didnt really know you long when you were taken away but that didnt mean it was easy. after your funeral i had to leave this place for a while i couldnt bar e to think of the things that you would never see or do again, even the smell of fresh air made me cry. it was so hard to get over your death. now my big brother is in heaven with you, he was only 23 and god took him form us with no good reason, in his sleep. i can now imagine the pain your family went through because i feel i will never heal now without him. one thing i know now is that there has to be somewhere to go to whhen you die because if i dont beleive that then i will never see him again. so everyday that passes brings me one step closer to seeing you two again. maybe we could have a jack and coke like old times. my thoughts are with your family. till we meet again friend... x x x

WHERE THE GENTLE BREEZES BLOW
LIES MY SON I LOVE SO DEARLY
HE DIED A FEW YEARS AGO
HIS RESTING PLACE I VISIT
PLACING FLOWERS THERE WITH CARE
BUT NO ONE KNOWS MY HEARTACHE
WHEN I TURN TO LEAVE THEM THERE
THOUGH HIS SMILE IS GONE FOREVER
AND HIS HANDS I CANNOT TOUCH
STILL I HAVE SO MANY MEMORIES
OF THE SON I LOVED SO MUCH
HIS MEMORY IS MY KEEPSAKE
WITH WHICH I SHALL NEVER PART
GOD HAS HIM IN HIS KEEPING
BUT I HAVE HIM IN MY HEART
SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY PRECIOUS SON
WHOM I WILL LOVE ETERNALLY
THOUGH TODAY YOU ARE TURNING TWENTY ONE
MY BABY YOU WILL ALWAYS BE
LOVE AND KISSES ALWAYS MUM XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

my mum is a survivor
My Mom is a survivor,
or so I've heard it said.
But I can hear her crying at night
when all others are in bed.
I watch her lie awake at night
and go to hold her hand.
She doesn't know I'm with her
to help her understand.
But like the sands on the beach
that never wash away...
I watch over my surviving mom,
who thinks of me each day.
She wears a smile for others...
a smile of disguise!
But through Heaven's door I see
tears flowing from her eyes.
My mom tries to cope with death
to keep my memory alive.
But anyone who knows her knows
it is her way to survive.
As I watch over my surviving mom
through Heaven's open door...
I try to tell her that angels
protect me forevermore.
I know that doesn't help her...
or ease the burden she bears.
So if you get a chance, go visit her...
and show her that you care.
For no matter what she says...
no matter what she feels.
My surviving mom has a broken heart
that time won't ever heal
