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.
Love to you Laura xx

I Wish I Could See You One More Time
Come Walking Through My Door
But, I Know That Is Impossible
I Will Hear Your Voice No More
I Know You Can Feel My Tears
And You Don’t Want Me To Cry
Yet, My Heart Is Broken
Because I Can’t Understand Why
Someone So Precious Had To Die
I Pray That God Will Give Me Strength
And Somehow Get Me Through
As I Struggle With This Heartache
That Was Caused By Losing You
♥♥
FRAGRANCE A LA LOOBIE
I remember how you and I loved fragrance:
Pretty Peach, Little Miss, Bronnley Rose and Lavender, Miss Dior Cherie, Cinema, J'dore and Chanel to name but a few.
You loved the feel on your skin of Shea butter, Elemis oil and Clarins.
I miss our 'beauty sessions' Loobie; where you would 'trial and error' on me - your model.
I visited the grave and David had left a beautiful white teddy and a mascara for you - A true friend to you. x

This Tribute Is For This Weekend
Candles Will Be Lit Again As Usual For Monday
LITTLE ANGELS
When God calls little children
To dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question
The wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares
With the death of one small child
Who does so much to make our world
Seem wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
The aged to His fold.
So He picks a rosebud
Before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them
And so He takes but few
To make the land of heaven
More beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult,
Still somehow we must try.
The saddest word that mankind knows
Will always be 'goodbye'.
So when a little child departs,
We who are left behind
Must realise God loves children
Angels are hard to find.
If roses grow in heaven,
Lord Please pick one for me.
Place it in my Loved ones hand
And tell them it's from me.
Tell them that I love them
And when they turn to smile,
Place a kiss upon their cheek
And hold them for a while.
Remembering them is easy,
I do it every day.
But there's an ache within my heart
That will never go away.
I looked towards the clouds today
And for a moment saw your face.
I wondered just where you have gone
With hope it's a better place.
Did you show yourself to me today,
To tell me you're all right?
Or was it just a daydream
Playing tricks upon my sight?
We will always feel the void inside
Because you are not here.
But each new thought you send our way
Lets us know you're near.
So until our journey nears its end
And we hear the angels sing,
We'll face each new day as it comes
And live off the love you bring.
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane,
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again.
Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more.
To remember all the happy times,
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten,
We pledge to you today:
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll always stay.
Thoughts Today Memories Forever
Angela(Christopher-John Rowe)Mum

Gone to Heaven Lovely Daughter.
Time for us down here you have
Oh such fun you made us laugh.
Told you i was rubbish at Poetry Love Daddy!!
one night i dreamed a dream, i was walking along the beach with my lord, across the sky flashed scenes from my life, for each scene,i noticed two sets of footprints in the sand_ one belonging to me and one to my lord, when the last scene of life shot before me, i looked back at the footprints in the sand. there was only one set of footprints, i realised that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life, this bothered me, si i questioned the lord about my dilemma............... 'LORD, you told me when i decided to follow you, you would walk and talk with me all the way, but during the most troublesome times of my life, there was only one set of footprints. i just don't understand why,when i needed you most, you left me,' HE WHISPERED,'My precious child, I LOVE YOU and i will never leave you _ never , ever . during your trials and testings. when you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that i carried you'.xx
