~NATHAN LEIGH MATTHEWS~
Nathan Leigh Matthews tragically passed away on 02/08/2007, approx 10.30pm aged 18. Nathan was horrifically killed in a road incident, Nathan had been driving home on his bike and pulled up at a red traffic light and was stationary at a pedestrian crossing and a junction and he was also on the inside lane when a 17 year old driver was driving carelessly and was unable to stop safely at that light and skidded to a halt hitting the back of nathans bike which spun him into the outside lane at that point another 17 year old driver who jumped that red light hit nathan who did not stand a chance of survival.Nathan was thrown into the barrier at a terrific speed and then thown into the air where the car hit him again. His multiple injuries were horrific which caused his instant death.The second driver as been charged with causing Nathans death by dangerous driving and the other with careless driving.
Nathan was born on the 28.3.89 in leicester and is the only child of yvonne savage. Nathan is the only son of peter matthews,Nathan and his mum moved to Shepshed when nathan was the age of 7 to give nathan a better life, nathan spent time with his dad in leicester most weekends. Until that fateful day Nath lived with his mum.
Nathans funeral took place at St botolphs church in Shepshed on the 14.8.07 at 2pm and over 450 family and friends attended to pay their respects to nathan and his family, most of these people followed the funeral cars to Shepshed cemetary where nathan was layed to rest.Nathans funeral tributes of flowers took the space of 3 graves at the cemetary. nathans funeral was a tribute to celebrate his life and included songs that were special to nathan and his mum and a song that was one of nathans favourites.Nathans wake was held at The Red lion pub in shepshed which was packed out for the rest of the day something nathan would of loved!!
After leaving Hind leys college at the age of 16 with 9 GCSs Nathan was accepted for an apprenticeship at Jackson Coachworks in Loughborough as a Panel Beater.
Nathan enjoyed his work but ambition was to be a fire fighter.
Nathan loved is Aprilla 125 and was on the road everyday, He had passed his theory part of his driving test and the pratical was to be on the tuesday after he died. Nathan was looking forward to having a car which was going to be his christmas present.Nathan spent his spare time with his many mates and going to the local pub on a friday night,If there was a party he was there he loved life,He loved people and was never seen without a smile on his face. Nath left behind his dog Jemma who adored him. Nath had such a passion for life and lived it to the maximum, He shared his mums passion for travel and was planning a trip with his mum to spend time in america to visit family.Nathan played football for the local town club which he enjoyed greatly. The last holiday together was at lanzarote 3 weeks before he died these are the last fotos i have of my child. The one on the site is of me and nathan together on our holiday i will treaure it.
Nathan will be immensly missed by his mum who lived her life for her son, Nathan had a great impact on the community who will sadly miss him
Nathan was a bubbly character who always had a massive smile on his face. Nathan got on with all people and was a true friend to everybody. He was always there to help whenever you were in need and always looked out for everybody. Nathan meant alot to each and everyone of his friends, everybody loved him for who he was.
He is now resting in peace with no more hurt and pain which we all have to live with, we miss him dearly and love him with all of our hearts!! xxXXxx
Nathan, born an angel and died an angel... My best friend and soul mate your memory will live in my heart for eternity party in heaven baby I love you !! mum xxxxxx
Since my child died
I feel as if my life has ended,
As my heart is so broken
and can never be truly mended.
You can't make me feel better
NO I'm never going to heal,
You haven't been where i am
you don't know how i feel.
I hope you never have to feel
The way that i do,
I wouldn't wish on anyone
What I'm going through.
Stop asking how I'm feeling
Unless you really want to know,
If i told you the truth
You'd soon get up and go.
I say that I'm ok
Cos its what you want to hear,
That's not how I'm feeling
It isn't anywhere near.
MY child has died
I cant get it out my head,
I spend my time thinking
Of thing's i wish i'd done or said.
I wish someone could help me
To take away my pain,
But only my child can do that
When I'm holding him again.
His memory will live on
And he will always be remembered,
When we are reunited
My heart will then be mended.

Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up and has left you with no warning
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day
Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey
All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

I asked a little Angel
That lives up in the sky,
“Why do we have tears,
Whenever we start to cry?”
The Angel answered, “Peace be Still,”
And I will tell you this --
When all the love is in your heart,
And no more love will fit,
The extra love spills over,
And tears begin to fall.
Tears just mean you love them;
More than ever, Most of All!!
