Ed was born in Manchester in the summer of 1974. His family consists of; James (Dad: passed away
2002), Margaret (Mum), Seamus (Brother), sisters Margaret, Lucy and Josephine and brother Michael.


Ed was a much respected brother in law to Neil and Joe.

He was an adored, much loved uncle and cousin to; Lee, Donna, Emma, Vicky, Ryan, Megan, Niamh,
Kieran, Adele, Kayleigh, Pebbles and Joshua (Not forgetting cousins in Ireland: Keith, Leeanne,
Thomas Michael, Paul, Seamus, Claire, Mary, Sinead and Liam)

Loving Nephew to Lucy and Jimmie, Margaret, Annie, Kay, and Michael; the late Molly, Mikey, Paddy
and Peggy and Bobby RIP.

Great friend to Louise, Brendan, Sarah, Karl, Marcia, Alison, Danny, Jack, Ashleigh, Pops, Hassan,
Michael, Candice, Siobhan, Lisa, John, Anthony, Chez and many many more...

Ed loved driving his car, playing on his playstation, surfing the net and listening to music... He
had a wicked sense of humour and had a smile that would melt your heart. He would help anyone and
always put others before himself.

Aged 18, Ed was diagnosed with Diabetes. Despite determined attempts, his diabetes was never
controlled and in recent years he suffered renal failure.

On the 18th December 2007, Ed was finally accepted on the transplant list; Ed, his family and
friends were estatic.

Our joy was short lived as Ed took ill shortly before Christmas and he was admitted into hospital on
Boxing Day. On the 30th December he suffered a cardiac arrest and was placed on life support;
however, Ed suffered irreversible injuries and the family took the heartbreaking decision to
withdraw life support.

Ed had a strong heart and fought bravely for 35 hours before losing his brave battle on the 12th
January 2008.


He is now reunited in Heaven with his dad. (Arran cardigans await him..)

Ed will be sorely missed by those who loved him and our lives will never be the same again. Rest in
Peace Ed, till we all meet again... x x x x x x

Tributes For This Week Starting 19th October

♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥

FOR MONDAY

Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.

FOR TUESDAY

Your life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure...
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure...

FOR WEDNESDAY

We miss you now, our hearts are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face,
No one can fill your vacant place.

FOR THURSDAY

Looking back with memories,
Upon the path you trod,
We bless the hours we had with you,
And leave the rest with God.


FOR FRIDAY

ROSES GROW IN HEAVEN

If Roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me
Place them in my Loved ones arms
And tell them they're from me

Tell them I love and miss them
And when they turn to smile
Place a kiss upon their cheeks
And hold them for awhile

Because remembering them is easy,
I do it every day
But there's an ache within my heart
Because I am missing them today...



FOR SATURDAY

I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS

As you hold me close in memory,
Even though we are apart,
My spirit will live on,
There within your heart .
I am with you always.

When you lean on trusted friends
And their caring hugs enfold you,
Within their loving arms,
I'll be there to hold you.
I am with you always.

And beyond the far horizon
When we'll finally be together,
Where love will be eternal
And life will last forever.
I am with you always.


FOR SUNDAY

TRUE LOVE

You were a gift sent straight from Heaven.
Given to us from God above.
We didn't know how much you would teach us
About the meaning of true love...

For true love sometimes means letting go
Of someone precious and dear.
That is what we were forced to do...
Although we wanted to keep you here!!!

However, this is quite a selfish wish.
One we know we should ignore...
But, sweet angel, we truly do believe
That God must have needed you more...

Perhaps to be an Angel now,
Full of wisdom and love...
Watching over those of us who love you
From the shining stars above.

We miss you more than you can know.
You will never be replaced...
In our hearts and memories forever,
Will be your sweet and innocent sleeping face.

STARLIGHT......

NOW IT IS TIME ONCE AGAIN TO SAY GOODNIGHT
LIGHT UP THE SKY ALWAYS KEEP IT SHINING BRIGHT
WHEN I LOOK OUT OF MY WINDOW I SEE YOU SHINE
THE BRIGHTEST STAR GLOWING IN THE DARK IS MINE

THE LIGHT OF LOVE IS SO BRIGHT AND SO CLEAR
SO FAR AWAY BUT IT LOOKS SO NEAR
JUST LIKE I COULD REACH OUT AND TOUCH THE BEAUTIFUL LIGHT
THAT SHINES IN THE SKY ON A DARK WINTERS NIGHT

IT RADIATES IT GLORY WITH ITS BEAUTY ALONE
THE MORE THAT I GAZE THE LIGHT SEEMS TO HAVE GROWN
IT IS THE HALO OF LIGHT THAT SURROUNDS EACH STAR ABOVE
SHOWING THE SHEER BEAUTY TO ALL THOSE THAT THEY LOVE.....

You've just walked on ahead of me,
And I've got to understand,
You must release the one you love,
And let go of their hand...

I try and cope the best I can,
But I'm missing you so much,
If I could only see you,
And once more feel your touch...

Yes, you've just walked on ahead of me,
Don't worry I'll be fine,
But now and then I swear I feel,
Your hand slip into mine...
