Three Years!! / Mummy
To my lovely daughter Rachel.
Another long and lonely year without you has passed. It's true, life does go on, but in a very different way now and at a much slower pace.
I have a lovely floral arrangement which I will bring to you tomorrow along with a new Susie dog (to replace the one which got stolen last Halloween). It's all I can do for you. Dad and I are also going to visit Derian House Childrens Hospice to take a posy of flowers to put in the Chapel. Dad also wants us to complete your page in the book of remembrance. We are going to take a copy of the Order of Service and a photo of you so other people visiting the hospice can see what a beautiful little girl you were and how much we love you.
Laura is busy studying for her GCSE's this year. She is also busy rehearsing for this years school performance - I know you would have loved to come and watch her performances. I am sure she misses you.
Please know Rachel, you are always in our hearts and minds. Our lives can never be complete, and we struggle. It's a sadder existence, but we do what we can when we can. One thing for sure we will always, always love and miss you forever.

hello/ Narelle Hilton (Olivias who was in the year above is my little sister )
hello,
i'v just been passing your site and remembered you. my little sister olivia hilton was in the year above. you wont know me because i'm 9 yrs older than her. i remember my mum telling me about you and your wonderful wigs that you wore. they are lovley. anyway look after you mum, dad and sister.
It's that time of the year again when everyone seems to be getting into the Xmas spirirt. Everyone that is, except me.
Daddy and I no longer like this time of the year Rachel. Xmas means nothing without the people who matter. I know we have our memories of Xmas's past, but somehow they're just not enough. What we really want is you, and our complete little family back again.
Xmas is made worse this year because Grandad now is not even here to share it with us. I hope he is settling into his new life OK and that you are there to help him and to show him the ropes.
I bet him and Grandma have not stopped chatting yet, and catching up on all the news, eh?
What a very difficult week. Grandad has finally joined you and Grandma. He was so very poorly Rachel, and he made the decision himself that he wanted to leave this world. He had been so very brave and fought the best he could for such a long time.
I just hope now that he has found peace at last and that you and grandma will help him on his journey into his new life.
At the moment Rachel I need you close by me more than ever, as I have so much to do. Please help me, and please take care of Grandad. He talked a lot about you and Laura whilst he was poorly in hospital, and I am sure I will miss him such a lot.
happy belated Birthday / Funda Sibels Mummy Hi Rachel
I hope your birthday, whereever you may be, was as beautiful and special as you are.
You are very much missed by your loving family each and every day and your birthday must have been so very hard for them. I know you watch over Mummy, Daddy and your sister.
I have just visited your resting place today sweetheart and feel so sad that some nasty person or persons have stolen all your little teddies and ornaments from your grave.
How could they do such a low and despicable thing? All the things that have been taken were so special and personal, they were all placed there by people who cared and thought about you at special times such as birthdays and anniversaries.
There is one thing though Rachel. You will know who has stolen them won't you? You will have been watching and whoever is responsible you will know.
I only hope sweetheart that you are now in a much pleasanter place than this sad world that we unfortunately have to inhabit.
Summer Holidays and Missing You! / Mummy
Hi Rachel
It's been a tough day today sweetheart because it is the end of term . The children will all have been looking forward to starting their school holidays and having lots of fun. Rachel, that's exactly what you should be doing as well. However, all that has been taken away from you, all the excitement, all the fun, all gone. It has all been taken away from me, your Mummy, as well.
I wonder who received your award in your class this year. You may already know, as I am sure you will have been watching in your own special way.
It's at times like these Rachel where I am reminded even more of what I have lost, and what can never be replaced. However, my love for you will always be there, but I am sure that you already know that.
Yesterday I went for a visit to my new place of work. It's not very far from my old place but I so wish I could show it to you.
Do you remember when we used to go into town shopping and I used to show you where I worked and you used to ask me to show you which window was nearest to where I sat?
This is a big change for me Rachel, and it's not easy. I am sure you are beside me helping me though and giving me the strength I need.
The start of the summer brings back some disturbing memories though. It was the beginning of the hot weather 3 years ago that you started to show signs of being poorly. Those memories will never ever fade. It's also the Fun Day at school tomorrow. I remember the last one you, me and Laura went to (also 3 years ago) and you weren't feeling very well then either, although you tried hard to enjoy yourself.
I will never stop missing you Rachel, and as always, I will love you forever.
Ode To My Family / Laura Drury (Sister) Thinking of you today Rachel... i'll always always love you.. and when you left us 2 years ago today... it was the worst thing that ever happened to me, i miss you so much and i think of you always... at the moment i am currently listening to a song by The Cranberries, its called Ode To My Family, its a song that reminds me of family times and all the good times we had together. I Love you very very much.
