God Bless Jason
I only knew you Jason as a little lad along with your brother Graham and I remember how your Mum used to keep you both in order.
Then last week by sheer tragedy I realised that you were all grown up and had been a brave young soldier who had lost his life serving his country. You truly have gone too soon you had so much more to give.
My thoughts are with your Mum, Mandy and your Dad, Brother, girlfriend and Brett.
To Mandy and all the family my thoughts are with you all. If you should ever need anything please call on me.. love and thoughts Carole (Danielle Walker's Mum.) xxxx

Good Night Angel

Your angel wings are formed now,
Too early thats for sure.
But god he takes the god ones,
Because they are so pure.
We know you will be watching,
Through fine or cloudy skies,
The rain will be your tear drops,
The sun will be your smiles.
You will not be forgotten,
for death is but a sleep,
and memories last for ever
and those are ours to keep.
Love
Leigh & family xx
from SAC Peter McFerran's Mum
Only the good die young. You were one of the best. Your family will be forever proud of you.
Dont Grieve For Me
God Bless you Jason, may your family and friends find strength to come to terms with losing you.
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following the path God has laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard his call.
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
to laugh, to love, to work, or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
God called me home on that day.
If my parting has left a void,
then fill it with remembered joys,
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
O yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
My life's been full, I savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee.
God wanted me now; He set me free.
Goodnite God Bless another serviceman sadly lost.
Sleep tight love Carol x
