Mum's sticking up for her son (again)! / Debbie (Mum)
Hi Danny love, Dad and I went to see Dottie and Pa on Saturday and Dottie showed me a figurine that she believes you broke many years ago when you were much younger (and more naughty!). Your cousins blamed you at the time, but I just wanted to let you know that I don't believe you did it! You would've been mortified for breaking something of Dottie's, and I'm sure you would've told me eventually. It reminded me of a time not so long ago when you were blamed for something you didn't do, and when you explained what actually did happen to the man who accused you, he never apologised for making a mistake. I will never forget this and nor will I ever forgive him for it - you were a decent bloke, not squeaky clean, I know, but you had a keen sense of fairness. Missing you so much that it actually hurts, Dan. Love Mum x x x Close
Moving on and missing you / Lil Bex (Friend)
Hes gone to a very special place, we'll always remember his cheerful face, he is always very near, he will help us face our fears. He wouldnt want us to be sad, he's gone to a place full of love, thats the heavens up above.
I think its getting harder as were all moving on and growing up going to uni and doing different things. We all no that you should be here with us doing these things. Each day goes by and your death is further away it still seems like yeasterday. You show us signs to each of us and through hard times we all face you can help us just by knowing you are watching and helping us and showing us your just there. Smiling down xxx Goodnight Close
MY CHILD / SELMA FLYNN BOBBO.MEMORY-OF.COM (friend)
"MY child
On the day God took you
I thought that I would die
I wondered where the time went?
I asked alot of whys??
With people all around me
I felt alone inside
From all their words of comfort,
I couldn't seem to hide, I thought I might be dreaming
That I'd wake and find you here,
I thought "This can't be happening."
As I wiped another tear.
On the day that you were laid to rest
My heart broke yet again,
I wondered if the pain would end,
But mostly, I wondered when??
It's hard to be without you,
At times the days seem long,
Sometimes I just sit crying,
When there's really nothing wrong.
I wish we'd had more time,
Before your life was done.
I hope your resting peacefully,
My precious child, Close
I give people advice about this, that and the other and everything I say is because of you. You have taught me so much without you even knowing. Since losing you my attitude has completely changed and I always say to people what's meant to be will be and live life to the full!! I love you so much Dan, I just wish I could have learnt these things from you without losing you!! Miss you and love you more than anything.
We are all carrying on, looking normal, acting normally, but gosh how we miss you babe. In everything we do we wonder whether you'd laugh, take the p***, or think we're just 'gay'. We're so lucky that your friends still want to spend time with us; sometimes it's like they're looking after us for you. Are you with Nana, Nanny and Grandad, and of course your cousin Lee who you never met but who left this world on the same day as you but 24 years before? Are Rosie, Ben, Ralph and Charlie there too? Not an hour goes by when you're not on our minds. You are and will be forever in our hearts too. We are so lucky to have had you in our lives, Dan. We are proud to have been your parents. We love you so, so much (and your sister too).
Not just memories / Jenna (Sis)

Happy Birthday / Sophie
Happy Birthday Danny! I just want you to know I'm thinking of you on your special day, I know you are around and people will be celebrating with you. You and your family helped to make my birthday so special and I hope that yours is the same. Everyone is thinking of you! Sending you the biggest birthday hugs, and so much love, today and always..Sophs xxx Close
Hope you're having a good birthday - where ever you are.
I found this poem on the internet, Dan, it was written by a dad who lost his son Philip in the London bus bombing. It just says everything that dad and I feel about you, so I asked him if I could put it here on your site as a message from us to you, and he said I could, so here it is:
The pride that we have for a son that we had, Sustains us through times that are good, that are bad. And the joy that we knew for our son as he grew Must help us along, as our life passes through. But son, if you ever look down from above, Then the light that you see is our love, son, our love.
Missing you so much, my handsome boy.
Lots of love from Mum x x x x x x x x x x x x x for ever
I just wanted to say happy birthday, I am sure everyone dear to you is thinking of you today so be sure to pop along to visit them, as they know your close by.
Love always and thinking of you always kerry
ps your picture looks cracking above the fire place - like they say in cheers everyone knows your name ( your a celebrity in our house!)
Mate,
i'd normally just write
"to dan, have a great day and enjoy all your presents". Some how that dosen't seem fitting enough these days.
I've not written to you or said hello in a while now, you know that i'm always thinking about you and i'm 100%sure your around all the time, only the other day I found a white feather in our new home and the next day on the bonnett of the clio.
You are greatly missed and i'm sooooo pleased that we got to spend sooooo many special monents with you.
Have a super day, enjoy all of our company if you can make it around to everyone today, but if you can't, then as you already know although we can't see you we're around you all the time
So sorry for your loss / Jan
I just wanted to say my heart goes out to you all. I also lost my son Kristian aged only 20 in March this year to the same illness as your son Danny. I will light a candle tonight for you all, may god be with you today and every day love Janxxx Close

Danny i miss you so much see i'm just waffeling on to your website so you better be reading this. Miss you and love you more and more each day :-) Jens x x x Close
Hey Dan, We had another successful ball at the weekend, HAM has really taken off, and is doing so well raising money for lots of other teenagers. You'd be so proud of all your friends and of course your lovely family. Your sister looked like a princess, you'd be sooo proud of her! And you have a very yummy mummy! Tom and Matt scrubbed up well too Dan, they looked all grown up...I felt proud. As always we missed you Danny. There is always a big space in our hearts that wishes you were there. Jodi's right - you would have laughed at me crawling under tables..I drank too much as usual. Some things don't change...You'd be proud of Dave-hes taken on some responsibility for looking after a drunken Sophie. We miss you mate! Love you xxx
You would be so proud of everyone again for another great ball. Everyone was so generous and with your help we have raised thousands of pounds. You have also helped me as I am now a history teacher, and it all started with a little conversation with your mum about how much you enjoyed the subject at school. It is always so lovely to see how many lives you have touched, including mine. I know that you would be laughing at Sophs crawling underneath the tables on saturday night in search of her camera!! You are always remembered, Love Jodi x x x Close
Yo Dan, times are changing man wish you were here to be a part of it. I don't understand some times. Got university soon and its all a bit crazy, miss the times when we could just chat and sort stuff out, i really do Dan, i love you and i know your watching, i am always thinking of you man. Tom.
A year has passed. / Charlie Bird (Friend)
Can't believe that it has been a year already. Its been hard without you, and not getting your call at the weekend and meeting up has left a void in me that is hard to replace. I'm glad I agreed to go and see Elton John with you and your folks, even though he didnt play Rocket Man (the bastard!). Though you are gone and it is painful at times, I get great comfort from all the hilarious memories of school and Spain and all the countless parties. Its an honour to be your mate and I'm glad to know you. Hope to write again soon mate -Charlie Close
