Rhys, who would have turned 12 a month after his death, had just left Broad Square Primary School on
the Norris Green housing estate, and was due to start secondary school at Fazakerley High School in
September 2007.

Rhys Jones was known to be a boy who was eager to learn everything and anything.
His headteacher and neighbours said that Rhys was a friendly, popular boy, and mad about football.

Rhys, who played for The Fir Tree Boys football club, was on his way home from football practice
with two friends. As he was crossing the Fir Tree pub car park, on Fir Tree Drive South in the
Croxteth Park estate, Liverpool, a hooded youth riding a silver mountain bike approached. He then
held out a handgun at arm's length firing three shots. It was originally believed that one of the
shots hit Rhys in the neck.

However, during the trial the pathologist revealed the bullet had entered his back "slightly above
the left shoulder blade" and that it had then "exited from the front right side of his neck". The
shooting occurred in daylight at 7.30 pm BST.

Rhys's mother rushed to the scene when she heard what had happened.By the time his mother had
reached him, Rhys was unconscious. Paramedics tried for one and a half hours to resuscitate him, but
he was pronounced dead some time later in Liverpool's Alder Hey Children's Hospital.

How We Survive
If we are fortunate
we are given a warning
If not
there is only the sudden horror
the wrench of being torn apart
of being reminded
that nothing is permanent
not even the ones we love
the ones our lives revolve around
*~♥x♥~
Life is a fragile affair
We are all dancing
on the edge of a precipice
a dizzying cliff so high
we can't see the bottom
One by one
we lose those we love most
into the dark ravine
*~♥x♥~
So we must cherish them
without reservation.
Now
Today
This minute
We will lose them
or they will lose us
someday
This is certain
There is no time for bickering
And their loss
will leave a great pit in our hearts
a pit we struggle to avoid
during the day
and fall into at night
*~♥x♥~
Some
unable to accept this loss
unable to determine
the worth of life without them
jump into that black pit
spiritually or physically
hoping to find them there
*~♥x♥~
And some survive
the shock
the denial
the horror
the bargaining
the barren, empty aching
the unanswered prayers
the sleepless nights
when their breath is crushed
under the weight of silence
and all that it means
*~♥x♥~
Somehow, some survive all that and
like a flower opening after a storm
they slowly begin to remember
the one they lost
in a different way...
*~♥x♥~
The laughter
the irrepressible spirit
the generous heart
the way their smile made them feel
the encouragement they gave
even as their own dreams were dying
*~♥x♥~
And in time, they fill the pit
with other memories
the only memories that really matter
We will still cry
We will always cry
But with loving reflection
more than hopeless longing
*~♥x♥~
And that is how we survive
That is how the story should end
That is how they would want it to be
♥ Mark Rickerby ♥
♥ Love ♥ Always ♥ Mary xxxx ♥

One gift, above all others,
God gives to us to treasure--
One that knows no time, no place;
One that gold can't measure—
~♥x♥~
The precious, poignant, tender gift
of Memory--for it keeps
Our dear ones ever in our hearts,
Though they have gone to sleep.
~♥x♥~
It brings back long remembered things--
A song, a word, a smile--
And the world's a better place because
We had them for a while!

~♥x♥~ Missing You ~♥x♥~
I just can't believe it
The sun still sets and rises
The moon and stars still shine
The flowers still bloom
The birds still sing
I expected a change in everything...
*~♥x♥~*
I just can't believe it
It still gets dark and light
The ocean still has waves
The rain still rains
The wind still blows
Is it because they do not know?
*~♥x♥~*
I just can't believe it.
I thought the world would stop
When in the house I found
An empty chair
A missing smile
I thought it would stop
For just a while
I just can't believe it....

Our angels send us kisses from heaven above
They float down to earth with lots of love
The kisses they send us are filled with love
Especially from our angels above
So if you receive a kiss on your face
It's from your angel
That no one could replace
Just look up to the sky
And blow a kiss back
For your love for your angel
Shall never lack

BEAUTIFUL ANGEL.X.
♥ღ♥ My Angel ♥ღ♥
♥ღ♥ You'll always be my angel
Of happiness and love
You'll always be my angel
Looking at me from above.
I miss you a lot
And I wish you could have stayed,
But I thought
It's better for you, so I prayed.
And I keep praying
And thinking
But also crying
And leaking.
It was tearing me apart
Before I actualy knew
Through those golden gates
Those angel guards were you.
You were everything
That you could possibly be
And now that I think of it
Why was I only thinking about me?
You'll always be my angel
Of happiness and love
You'll always be my angel
Looking at me from above.
I see
You watching over me
And hear
You speaking to me
I won't
Give up and not care
I will
Move on and be fair.
As I think about you
I might be sad for a while
But as I think again My Angel
I see your happy smile
Smiling down at me
Through the clouds
And through the sky
I've left the ground
And just died.
I'm coming to be with you
And God, too.
You'll always be my angel
Of happiness and love
You'll always be my angel
Looking at me from above ♥ღ♥

A Message from your Angel Son
Mum and Dad
Please don't cry too long, I know you are sad I'm gone. Your heart is broken and filled with pain, but don't you know you will see me again? But this time I'll be beautiful and whole, no flesh and blood, but a heavenly soul. If you could see me now you would not shed a tear, but smile in anticipation for the day you'd join me here. There's no sorrow, no crime, no sickness, no pain, no war, no labor, no death or rain. There's no hate, no fear, no devil or sin, nothing evil or bad can get in. The streets are gold, the lighting is bright, the sun forever shines, there is no night. Angels sing without a hault, or pause, they just sing and praise, there is no time and no such thing as days. And trust me I'm not alone! There are so many Boy Angels here, we play and play Footy all day, oh dear! And best of all Jesus comes to visit us often, we can go talk to God face to face! And when I talked to Him when I arrived, I felt His amazing grace. He told me not to worry about my family at home and that I'm always with you even though I'm gone. I said but if, I'm here, God, how can that be? He said that I'm in your mind, your soul and your sweet memories. Goodbye for now, grieve normally and cry if you must. God knows what's best and in Him you must trust.
Until we meet again, your Baby Angel .Rhys xx
