I knew andy or to his mates as (bates) since we were 2 years old, i can still remember the first
time he came and called for me and asked my mum if cabbage and carrott were coming out to play cos
he couldnt remember mine and my brothers names. We grew up together and went threw school together,
spent loads of holidays together with either his mum and dad or mine. We helped each other through
the rough times and laughed through the good. we were drinking buddies on the friday night going to
feoffes on ship hill, then the day came that i met my now wife and didnt come out with you as often
if only i could turn back time mate i would be there with you mate.Then you met Louise who adored
you andy and i know you did her too,you was always popular with your easy going happy personality
that noone could ever say a bad word about you.Andy you were my best mate i will never forget you
ever, you were like a brother to me.Its been alot of years since that fatefull day when the angels
called your name....i cant believe that i was only 5 mins behind you and i keep going over in my
head that i wish i was there to try and help you on that day.....there isnt a day that doesnt pass
that i dont think of you and remember the good times we shared....i always thought that we would
grow old and go to the coast together with our kids just like we did as children. i see your son
luke and he reminds me so much of you when you were his age and the memories come flooding back....i
miss you mate with out you its never going to be the same theres always a part of me missing and for
all your friends and family that will never be replaced.
I know your now with your mum and she will take care of you and make sure your safe....i would do
anything to see you and your mum again.
Theres loads more that i could say about you mate but i think one thing will say it all I love you
mate and will never forget you sleep tight mate till we meet again. It was a honour to have been
your best mate.
Keep the windows down and tunes pumping "set you free..."
Letting go of you
I know I have to let you go.
How I will I do not know.
I know that it's your time to die.
What I don't know is how to say goodbye.
I'll miss you so much I don't know what to do.
I guess I'll just end this poem with a goodbye and an I love you.

My best mate
Its been 6 years mate today, i sat and looked at the clock at 10.20 this morning thinking that if we could go back 6 years i would have rung you half hour earlier and told you to go home a different way but we dont have such things as time machines.
Time they say it gets easier with time but i havent seen any change in the loss and sorrow i feel since 6 years ago.
i dont think that it ever gets easier because there is a part of us missing and always will be, cos your not here to fill it...
we all miss you bates....you were a truly good mate and i will always miss you...
Gonna have a beer tonight mate for you probably your favourite a newcy brown...
Missed and loved forever
