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

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.
*>>... Nathan Leigh Matthews...
I Love You Nath

Our angels send us kisses from heaven above
They float down to earth with lots of love
The kisses they send us are filled with love
Especially from our angels above
So if you receive a kiss on your face
It's from your angel
That no one could replace
Just look up to the sky
And blow a kiss back
For your love for your angel
Shall never lack
luv to u always xxx

Hello From Heaven
◕⊱✣⊰◕
It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrops
I so wish I could erase...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realize...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
Hope...Time...Love...Healing...
Tomorrow will come. The pain will ease,
But you will never forget your precious child.
It takes hope, time, and love for the healing to take place.
Remember along the way to accept, but never forget.
Love lives longer than grief or pain...
All other things pass, but love will remain.
A bond that nothing can sever,
Because love lasts forever.
Our hearts are broken. Our world seems like it has ended.
Our dreams, our hopes, and our future with this child are over.
Our precious child has died.
God sends his little angels, in many forms and guises,
They come as lovely miracles, that God alone devises.
What we have once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose.
For all that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
Helen Keller
♥♥ WITH LOVE ♥♥
