Phil was a beautiful man who brought a considerable amount of joy into the lives of the people he met. He was well known for his wit and breadth of knowledge. He worked hard for the Terrence Higgins Trust (the HIV charity in London) for six years as a volunteer cousellor, trainer, computer operator and speaker. He will be greatly missed by his partner Graham, his parents and the other members of his large extended family.

Don’t be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.

The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.

I leave a bouquet of 50 sunflowers for Derek Smith…so young, so much unfinished. I did not have the privilege of knowing this young man, this mother’s son, this children’s father, I only know the loss felt by mother and children…as I am a mother whose daughter graces the golden halls of heaven with Derek. She left two children behind. My heart is so heavy and sad. Enjoy your well deserved heavenly rewards Derek and my daughter..we will be together again…peace

Hi Derek..:-)
It’s only been alittle over a month since you left us! We are all coping alittle better but we sure do miss you. Dominic and Cody miss you very much. They talk about you alot… although I don’t get to see them too much anymore. I did see them for a minute the other day and they are getting bigger, I looked at Cody… and he reminded me of you so much. I have your picture setting on my end table in my living room… I look at you everyday and sometimes I sit in my chair and talk to ya! I can only hope that you can hear me.:-)
Your mom and my mom are doing better as well. This really tore them up… as it did all of us! When you were in the hospital, we prayed for you so hard… to fight.. and to get well… I guess you were too happy where you were to come back to us. We can’t blame you for that… I’m sure you are happier now than you have ever been in your whole life!!!
I should go now, kids want to go swimming!!! lol Derek, I am soo sorry this happened to you… it should have happened to someone else… if it had to happen at all. Just know that your family dearly loves you and misses you very much!!! I will write more again… keep you updated.. lol of all the exciting happenings in Sidney, Ohio.. 🙂 Till then!!!

Derek was my cousin…more like my brother! We were close friends too. He was always there when I needed help. Derek would help anyone if he could. Anyone that knew him will tell you what a great guy he was…very polite, caring man…he was a very hard worker…very dependable!!!
He loved motorcycles, as we all know, hunting, fishing and being with his friends and family.
The two most important people in his life were his two boys, Dominic and Cody!!!! They are still so young…but we will keep Derek alive to them. They loved their daddy very much….as he loved them with all his heart!!!!
The one thing that Derek always searched for … but was unable to find…was true happiness!!! Derek and I had so many conversations about it…you have to make your own happiness…it doesnt get handed to you!
That’s the one thing I regret about God taking him too soon… He deserved a chance at true happiness on this earth as much as the rest of us do!! I do believe he has found true happiness now… Looking down on all of us..:-) Playing in the clouds……watching over his two babies!!! It hasn’t been that long since he left us. I still think about him every day. I laugh… then I cry!!! I Love you Derek….and I miss you so much!!!!
Your friend and cousin always!!

Kasarn, please know how sorry I am for the loss of your Dad. He and I share the same birthday which is what empowered me to write to you. I lost my Mom to cancer this past year and we are fighting the cancer war with my Dad as well. At any age, the loss of a parent cannot be justified by words. The hurt is far too great. The healing process is slow. Please know that you were thought of today fondly. I’m certain your Dad is very proud of you. I will think of him and you on 4/10.

Kasarn – you were very young when your Dad died. I was 10 when my Dad died – it is so unfair – I know. Be the best that you can be as he will be watching over you and will be so proud. God bless you.

My dad was 5’9″ tall, had blonde hair, blue eyes and a very sporty body. He had a great sense of humour, loved rock music, new clothes (but sometimes never wore them) and me and mum.

He always liked to send people up, he was a great tease. I even miss that about him.

My nanny is a counsellor and writer and she wrote a poem and I want to put it here because my dad was also a Gestalt Therapist;

 	Life is....   
 	a process,  
 	a moving tapestry    
 	of experiences...    
 	of beginnings    
 	and endings...   
 	joy and laughter...    
 	tears and saddness...    
 	fears and uncertainties...    
 	hurt and anger...  
 	guilt and forgiveness...   
 	the writing of a    
 	book of memories...    
 	a passionate gestalt.    

I love you dad and miss you very much.
Your loving daughter Kasarn 🙁 XXXXOOOOO

I am also a suicide survivor and very sad. I just wanted to wish you and your family the best and let you know you are in my heart and prayers. Somehow, we will get thru this. Just hope and pray that God saw how much pain your brother was in. I hope he is in the arms of an Angel right now. God Bless You and Your Family, now and always.

Something drew me to your site tonight. I am praying for your family and those who loved you, that God will help them bear this pain. He alone is able to heal our broken hearts.

There no sense in wishing to turn back time – I am sure the one who went has given you much before he decided to leave and even now he has given you memory. Keeping this memory in honour and alive keeps a little part of him alive. I do not know why – as I do not know neither you nor your family – I feel sorry reading your lines. I just wish to say, I do.
