I didnt get to know Leslie as he was killed before i met his brother Matt, and since then i guess i
know as much about him as Matt does. Leslie died serving his country, he was a member of the RIR. In
the year 2000 Leslie went training to Canada, he didnt tell his family as he didnt want them to
worry as they knew in Canada they use live rounds during training so they knew nothing till they got
a knock at the door late at night telling them that Leslie had been shot. They said it was an
"accident" but how could it have been an accident when it was one of his own men that was beside him
that done it??? His family have never been told the name of the other soldier that shot him and as
far as we know he is still in the army, no action was taken against him. So his mum, dad, brothers,
sisters, his son and daughter and all the rest of his family are left to pick up the piece's due to
the actions of this "soldier" that has taken their son, brother and loving dad..... Leslie DID go
too soon. He is missed and loved so, so much by all his family and friends God Bless you
Leslie...keep watching over your family xxxxx

When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you.
And each time that you think of me
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the hand.
If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.
If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.
If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.
Our memories build a special bridge
When loved ones have to part.
To help us feel we're with them still
And soothe a grieving heart.
Our memories span the years we shared,
Preserving ties that bind.
They build a special bridge of love
And bring us peace of mind.
As New Year approaches
It seems harder this time of year
We miss you so much more
The only thing that gets us through
Are the memories of before
So here's a card just for you
To show how much we care
I know your waiting with the angels
One day I'll see you there.
Thoughts Today Memories Forever
Angela(Christopher-John Rowe)Mum

if i could have one wish
SENT WITH LOVE XXXXX
♥ If I could have one wish ♥
♥ If i could wish upon a star ♥
♥ I would wish for you back here ♥
♥ I know you're happy where you are ♥
♥ But i miss you and want you near ♥
♥ Although i see you everyday ♥
♥ In my thoughts and in my dreams ♥
♥ I miss you more than words can say ♥
♥ It just gets worse, it seems ♥
♥ I try to be strong for others around ♥
♥ But all i want to do is cry ♥
♥ I just sit for hours by myself ♥
♥ And ask the question 'Why'? ♥
♥ It's the strongest pain I've ever felt ♥
♥ I don't think I could describe it ♥
♥ Although I try, I do my best ♥
♥ I don't think that I can hide it ♥
♥ My life will never be the same ♥
♥ That's why it's hard to bear ♥
♥ Because since the day you left us ♥
♥ I think that life's not fair ♥
♥ Some things seem not to matter now ♥
♥ Even things that mattered before ♥
♥ You have no idea what I would give up ♥
♥ To make this pain less sore ♥
♥ People say we'll meet again ♥
♥ And yeah I know that's true ♥
♥ But I wish it didn't have to be this way ♥
♥ Because you know how much I miss you ♥
♥ I love you with all my heart and soul ♥
♥ And there's one thing you need to know ♥
♥ There's not one person in the human race ♥
♥ That could ever take your place ♥
AN ANGELS KISS
.
We never stop to measure
Anything we might just miss
But if the wind should blow by softly
You'll feel an Angel's Kiss.
A Kiss that's sent from Heaven
A Kiss from up above
A Kiss that's very special
From someone that you love.
For in your pain and sorrow
A Kiss will help you through
This Kiss is very private
For it's meant for only you.
So when your heart is heavy
And filled with tears and pain
And no-one can console you
Remember once again.
About the one you grieve for
And so sadly miss
That gentle breeze you took for granted
Was your Angel's Kiss.

Friends are like flowers
Each unique in their own way
Put them all together
What a wonderful bouquet
Some are really brilliant
Full of light sharp and clear
While others are more subdued
To both you can adhere
You are a flower in my garden
That makes up my bouquet
My friends you all make
A very impressive display

It's just a little,
But means a lot,
To say dear Leslie
We haven't forgot.
It only takes a little space,
To write how much we miss you,
But it will take the rest of our lives,
To forget the way we lost you.
Just a thought of sweet remembrance,
Just a memory, sad and true;
Just the love and sweet devotion,
Of the one's who thinks of you.
No space of time, no lapse of years,
Can dim the treasured past.
A loving memory keeps it dear,
Affection holds it fast.
Nothing can ever take away,
The love a heart holds dear;
Fond memories linger every day,
Remembrance keeps him near.
They say memories are golden,
Well, maybe that is true,
But we never wanted memories,
We only wanted you.
You still live on in the hearts and minds,
Of the loving family you left behind
Beautiful memories are treasured ever,
Of happy days when we were together
Memories are like threads of gold,
They never tarnish or grow old.
Wherever we go, whatever we do,
Memories keep us near to you.
Your presence we miss,
Your memory we treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
The years may wipe out many things,
But this they'll wipe out never,
The memory of those happy days,
That we have spent together.
To us, his name will ever be,
The key that unlocks memory,
Of a dear one gone, but cherished yet,
A beloved face We'll never forget.
Although you can't be here with us,
We're truly not apart,
Until the final breath we take,
You'll be living in our heart's.
Treasured thoughts of one so dear,
Often bring a silent tear,
Thoughts of scenes long past,
Years roll on but memories last.
Nothing can ever take away,
The love a heart holds dear;
Fond memories linger every day,
Remembrance keeps him near.
All Our Love To You Leslie

Tomorrow is always a day away
Today is here and now
Yesterday will never stay
For God will not allow…
We must take this day He’s given us
And hold it in our hearts
For each day does slowly fade away
And today will soon depart…
God has given us something special
We hold it deep within
The special gift of memories
To retrieve and live again…
