THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR VISITING MY PRINCESS' SITE AND LEAVING ALL THE BEAUTIFUL CANDLES AND
TRIBUTES. YOUR LOVING SUPPORT MEANS THE WORLD. AND YOU AND UR ANGELS ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART EVEN
WHEN IM NOT ABLE TO COME ON THE SITE. XX
Sophie was born on the 17th of October 1999, Sophie was a twin to her brother Mitchell. She was born
to a loving family of her mother, Kerrie, father Geoff and brothers Josh and Lachlan. Since the day
Sophie was born she was clearly the more outgoing twin ready to take on the world and never slowing
down for anything. Sophie wanted to do everything and never had any fear. I am Sophies cousin and
from the moment I met Sophie in the hospital she was special to me and as I had the pleasure to
watch her grow we formed a close bond and she became like the little sister I longed for.
She would often stay at my house from the time she was little and I would help take care of her. I
was so happy to have my little princess in my life. No matter how bad things seemed a smile and a
hug from Soph and the world was wonderful again. She could always make me smile and I often looked
foward to the day I could drive so I could take Soph places like the movies and shopping and spoil
her.
In April of 2007 I went to New Zealand with my family. It was to be a wonderful holiday and the
night before we left Sophie came over to say goodbye and show us her little athletics trophies. I
will never forget that night, it was the last time i was to hold my little princess. She begged us
to let her come with us and I wish we she could have. If i knew that I would never see her again i
would have never let her go. I still wish I had have given her one more hug and said I love you one
more time.
While in New zealand I was having a great time until one night mum walked into the room crying. I
thought my siblings were fighting and then she broke down as she told me Sophie had drowned. That
was the moment my nightmare began. I was full of shock, I couldnt believe it. One second I was so
happy and the next my world came crashing down around me. It didnt seem real, how could this have
happened?
The next day we flew home from New Zealand early and reality started to sink in. I went to visit
Sophies family who we are very close, it was one of the hardest things I have ever done. There was
nothing I could do to take away their pain.
It has been over a year since me princess grew her angel wings and it still doesnt seem real. When I
go to her house I still wait for her to run out and leap into my arms and hug me. I miss her evry
second of every day and cannot wait to be with her in heaven and hold her in my arms again.
PLEASE LIGHT A CANDLE IN MEMORY OF SOPHIE!

⊱♥⊰ ANGEL WINGS YOU WEAR... ⊱♥⊰~
The day you left broke our hearts
and the tears fell like rain,
but knowing that you now have wings
helps to ease the pain.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
We know now when the snow falls
it is Angel dust from you
and when we see a shooting star
our Angel just passed through.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
The rain drops do not make us sad
for they are not tears,
but sprinkles of love falling down,
our Angel again is near.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
The winter cold has even changed,
Jack Frost no longer exists,
it's now a visit from our Angel
and he's left a special gift.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
You also visit in the night,
your wings flutter with grace,
we know now when we awaken
that an Angel has kissed our face.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
When the days are warm and bright
and the sun shines from above,
we feel the warmth wrap around us,
you've given an Angel hug.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
You are with us at all times,
every day and night,
you try to end the pain we have
and the tears that we still cry.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰
Though Heaven is your home now
and Angel wings you wear,
you stay close to those you love,
until they join you there.
⊱♥⊰~⊱♥⊰

Another Year Without YOu
Today in life we celebrate
The joy of what you gave
The memories that linger now
Are treasures that we save.
♥
Another year now passes by
With all the love we knew
Our hearts forever with you now
From footprints made by you.
♥
No matter what the year
The many miles are there
Our hearts forever with you now
Through hours we have shared.
♥
It seems like only yesterday
That you were gone from here
But in our hearts a testament
That "love" is always near.
♥
We miss you and we celebrate
Each day you shared on earth
For you were all that you could be
To us you had such worth.
♥
The love we feel it never leaves
It stays within the heart
Knowing that with every breath
Your spirit never parts.
♥
As Angels sing and clouds roll by
We celebrate this day
Looking up we see your smile
That took our hearts away.
♥
You will always be a part
Of every morning prayer
Forever you are with us Sophie
The breath of life we share.
So sorry for the loss of your beautiful Sophie, sending you all much love and big hugs on this sad day, hoping that it brings you comfort and strength to know that you are not alone. XXX

Thinking of you on this sad day
These are the words to a Michael Jackson song that we played at Victoria’s funeral. The words mean a lot to us, I hope you like them.
Like A Comet
Blazing 'Cross The Evening Sky
Gone Too Soon
Like A Rainbow
Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye
Gone Too Soon
Shiny And Sparkly
And Splendidly Bright
Here One Day
Gone One Night
Like The Loss Of Sunlight
On A Cloudy Afternoon
Gone Too Soon
Like A Castle
Built Upon A Sandy Beach
Gone Too Soon
Like A Perfect Flower
That Is Just Beyond Your Reach
Gone Too Soon
Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight
Here One Day
Gone One Night
Like A Sunset
Dying With The Rising Of The Moon
Gone Too Soon
Gone Too Soon
