LAURA ROSE BOWER MCKNIGHT 22/O6/1985-31/08/2007
Laura was an exceptional young woman and I was so very proud of her. I didn't agree with Beauty
Competitions for young girls, but we arrived late at Bevercotes Colliery Gala. Laura entered the
line-up as the last contender - she won - just four years of age, but a noticeable personality.
Together with an accute intelligence and an eye for intricate detail. Laura was elegant, eloquent
and so extraordinarily individual that she drew attention wherever she went. Truly dedicated to
whatever she took on and loyal to her friends.
Laura gained a place at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama to study Violin Performance. In
her diary she wrote that by her teens she had played in over one hundred and fifty concerts, mostly
in the County of Lincolnshire. She played Violin at Usher Gallery and for Princess Anne during a
visit to Robert Pattinson School. Laura was a performer, but had a tiny ego, and admired people with
the dedication to achieve technical briliance on Violin.
Most of all Laura was my wonderful daughter - unique, irreplaceable, a much loved sister of
Douglas.
The 'star' of our family will never fade; of course we are devastated, but her life was
extraordinary and carried great lessons for us all to learn from.
LAURA ROSE WAS WONDERFUL!
{written bt carol, mummy of laura rose}
Laura Rose died on the 31st of August 2007. She was only 22 years of age.
Laura did many things through her life including attending musical college.
Laura sadly left behind a loving brother, who misses her dearly. She also left behind a loving
father, step father and mother. She also left behind a very big loving family, many cousins, many
aunties and uncles.
Laura died a tragic death, we all know how she died, so i dont think there is any need to put it.
Laura you were such a loving cousin, we did so many things together, go to the cinema, go to the
coast. I remember the time me and your mum came to Cardiff to see you play in the orchestra, i was
so proud to see you up there. You were like a big sister to me, i could tell you anything. I
remember when we were really little and i stayed over at your house once, and we sat at the top of
the stairs and you played with my hair, and you said something that meant so much, i will never ever
foget what you said. Laura you will always be in my heart and thoughts, as you will be with
everyones.
one year on it is so much harder.
DANEVIEW FUNNY GIRL
Dear Laura,
By now your dog Semore [Funny Girl], a Papillon, will be with you. She died today and I know you will love having her with you. Semore was 14 years old and I remember you getting her for your birthday with a big ribbon tied around her. You adored her. I pray God will take no more though, as I have lost you, Malcolm and Semore in 17 months. God bless my Laura-Rose and Semore. Keep them safe. xxxxx

I Love And Miss Him So Much.

Love is like a butterfly;
It goes where it pleases
And pleases wherever it goes.
The best and most beautiful
Things in the world cannot
Be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart
The Watcher
You always leaned to watch for us
Anxious if we were late,
In winter by the window,
In summer by the gate.
And though we mocked you tenderly
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more safe,
Because you waited there.
Your thoughts were all so full of us,
You never could forget,
And so I think that where you are
You must be watching yet.
Waiting ‘til we come home to you
Anxious if we are late
Watching from Heaven’s window
Leaning from Heaven’s gate.
To Those Whom I Love and Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that I have had so many years
I gave you my love, you can only guess
How much you gave me in happiness
I think you for the love each have shown
But now it is time I traveled on alone
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for a while that we must part
So bless the memories in your heart
I will not be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you can not see or touch me,
I will be near and if you listen with your heart,
You will hear all of my love around you
Soft and clear then, when you must come this way alone I will greet you with a smile and a
"Welcome Home"
Friends Are Like Angels,
Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.
Their thoughtfulness comes,
As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.
Like upside-down rainbows,
Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun.
Friends are like angels,
Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious thing
Thoughts Today Memories Forever
