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.

♥ღ♥ A Bend In The Road ♥ღ♥
♥ღ♥ When we feel we have nothing left to give
and we are sure that the song has ended
When our day seems over and the shadows fall
and the darkness of night has descended
Where can we go to find the strength
to valiantly keep on trying?
Where can we find the hand that will dry
the tears that the heart is crying?
♥ღ♥ There's but one place to go and that is to God
and dropping all pretence and pride
We can pour out our problems without restraint
and gain strength with Him at our side
And together we stand at life's crossroads
and view what we think is the end
♥ღ♥ But God has a much bigger vision
and He tells us it's only a bend
For the road goes on and is smoother
and the pause in the song is a rest
And the part that's unsung and unfinished
is the sweetest and richest and best
♥ღ♥ So rest and relax and grow stronger
let go and let God share your load
Your work is not finished or ended
you've just come to a bend in the road ♥ღ♥
♥ღ♥ Unknown
♥ღ♥ Love Always Mary xxx ♥ღ♥

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
on the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
you could call your very own;
a place to find serenity,
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea,
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me.
I can't build a mountain
or catch a rainbow fair,
but let me be what I know best,
a friend who's always there.
ღ ♥ღ GOODNIGHT, SWEET DREAMS ღ ♥ღ

Hello Beautiful Angel Rhys
Tributes Till Monday
♥ If I be the first of us to die
♥ Let grief not blacken long your sky
♥ Be bold and modest in your grieving
♥ There is a change but not a leaving
♥ And just as death is part of life
♥ The dead live on forever in the living
♥ And all the gathered riches of our journey
♥ The moments shared
♥ The mysteries explored
♥ The steady layering of intimacy stored
♥ The things that make us laugh
♥ Or weep or sing
♥ The joy of sunlit snow
♥ Or first unfurling of the Spring
♥ The wordless language of look and touch
♥ The knowing
♥ Each giving and each taking
♥ These are not flowers that fade
♥ Nor trees that fall and crumble
♥ Nor are they stone
♥ For even stone
♥ Cannot the wind and rain withstand
♥ And mighty mountains peaks
♥ In time reduce to sand
♥ What we were, we are
♥ What we had, we have
♥ A conjoined past imperishably present
♥ So when you walk in the wood
♥ Where once we walked together
♥ And scan in vain the dappled bank beside you
♥ For my shadow
♥ Or pause where we always did upon the hill
♥ To gaze across the land
♥ And spotting something
♥ Reach by habit for my hand
♥ And finding none
♥ Feel sorrow start to steal upon you
♥ Be still
♥ Close your eyes
♥ Breathe
♥ Listen for my footfall in your heart
♥ I am not gone
♥ But merely walk within you

♥ And just as long as there are songs
♥ Of love and memory
♥ I shall remember you today
♥ And dreams of you tonight
♥ And look for you tomorrow when
♥ The sun begins to light
♥ Whatever season, month or year
♥ This much will be the same
♥ The only sound of joy will be
♥ The mention of your name

Just to thank you for all that you do.
For you are so kind and show lots of love.
To all our angels in heaven above.
You keep our angels safe and look after them with love.
Oh I wish I could see my angel..
In heaven up above.
Dear God I miss my angel so much you see.
for we had a special bond, my angel and me.
I love my angel with all my heart.
But I've been so sad since we had to part.
Dear God I know that you have made my angel better.
So please Dear God read my angel this letter.

Happy Birthday Rhys
Rhys you were murdered on the day my first baby boy was born,(22.8.07) and your killer was brought to justice on the day my second baby boy was born (16.12.08). I heard the news on the radio while I was in labour, and it made me cry - to have justice for you means such a lot.
Happy birthday Rhys you will never be forgotten . Sleep tight angel xx

Like storms in the desert
And petals of a dying rose
Why you went to heaven
Only the Lord knows
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Like trees in a forest
And the early morning dew
God only takes the best
That’s why he took you
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Like gardens of Eden
And rainbows in the sky
You’re one of these beauties
And no one need to ask why
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Like the setting of the sun
And the rain and winter showers
You live on through it all
As God gave you these powers
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Like God made little green apples
He was the one that made you
And though he took you early
He will be the one to see you through
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
And you live on forever
Through wind, rain, and shine
And I thank the dearest Lord
That on earth you were mine.

When the sun sets in the morning
Always remember smile at me
Walk along the river bank
Sit under that weeping willow tree
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Think about the things in life
That would always make us glad
Never cry for more than a minute
For you will make me sad
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Look besides the flowing stream
You might just see me there
I used to love my daily walks
Pass fields and country fairs
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Always look on the bright side
For you cry and you cry alone
Don’t be wasting tears on me
As I am in my brand new home
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
Just remember what we had
Keep the memories in your heart
It wont be long for we meet again
And we can both have a new start
*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
I will see you by the willow tree
When you walk the way I went
For nature is a peculiar thing
And natures heaven sent.
