Damen Christopher Burrows 26.09.1989 to 30.09.2006
Damen from Parr, St helens died tragically following a fatal road traffic collision that occurred
on Grange Park Road, St. Helens on Saturday 30th September 2006.
On that Horrific night all he had done was gone to see his mates and then on leaving when driving
down the main road another horrible person in a car decided to pull out from the side road straight
into Damens path unforunately leaving him no time to react. This person took a gamble at a junction
with my sons life. My son had so much to live for he is loved and missed by so many people. The
driver now lives on without a care in the world seeing his family everyday if only he or anybody
else out there who do stupid things in cars would spend a day feeling how i feel (EMPTY) with my
heart broken wishing everyday for Damen to come home then i am sure they would or hope that they
would think twice before they do it again.
He will be sadly missed by his Mum, Dad, younger borther and sister.
And also his nan and grandad,aunties, uncles ,cousins,friends and anybody who knew him.He is a very
special boy who was loved by everyone who ever knew him. He was very good with everything he put his
mind or hands to from going out with his friends to fishing with his dad, to being a great role
model for his younger brother and sister and his little cousin, he would quite often turn his mates
down to go and play with her.He would often have his hands dirty ither doing jobs round the house or
for people or just fixing his bike or anybody elses he was an absolute star.Unless you knew Damen it
is very hard to believe or understand just how special he was but there are no words that could
express how special he is or how much that he is missed and loved.
Sadly he was taken from us way to soon,his adult life was just about to start,He left school in the
June 2006 gaining 13 gcse with so many plans for the future and within a few weeks had found
himself a full time job which he picked up very quickly and made lots of good friends.He had his
first driving lesson booked for the monday evening after work but unfortunately never made it, he
loved his scooter and took great pride in it, he made sure that he done everything right but it is a
shame that not everybody who uses the roads does the same.
Thanks to everyone who has spent time to leave a message on this site
THANK YOU
HERE IS A POEM I WROTE FOR HIM
Our son Damen
From the minute you were born,
You filled our lives completely,
From the minute you were born,
We loved you whole and deeply.
You lit a room up,
As soon as you walked in,
You cheered the mood up,
With your very special grin.
You were such a good lad,
You always knew good from bad,
You rarely needed telling off,
Apart from those smelly socks.
You were the best big brother,
That anyone could want,
You kept your sister and brother,
In check and safe from harm.
You spent your short life,
Making plans for the future,
You worked hard all through your life,
To make your future bright.
The day you got your scooter,
We argued right from wrong,
But then you got your full time job,
And we all just went along.
You earned your pay throughout the day,
And spent it all at night,
Checking out spares, and buying parts,
For your special bike.
We love you so and miss you lots,
Even though your out of sight,
Never forget you we will not,
Until we meet you once again,
Through that all bright light.
Love you loads and miss you lots
All our hugs and kisses
Mum and Dad xxxxx

This is a beautiful poem wrote for my Damen from a beautiful lady called Angela she also lost be
precious Chris Thank you from the bottom of my heart this means so much to me thank you all my love
Paula
Damen you had your whole life ahead,
But someone took that away,
They never considered our feelings,
On that saturday.
You were only seventeen,
had your whole life ahead,
But someone took that from you,
They killed you, now you're dead.
We never will understand,
Never see the reason why,
You left us on that day,
No chance to say goodbye.
We never will forget you,
Mum, & Dad alike,
Brother and your sister,
Why did you get that bike?
It's all a part of growing up,
Though parents never see,
It's part of independence,
Letting go of you, you see.
But Damen - never forget this,
We loved you more than life,
And when we think of you,
The pain acts like a knife.
We know you still think of us,
We think of you each day,
So till we're reunited,
We would like to say......
Only the good are taken,
To go on to better places,
We can't wait to join you,
Until then ,sadness remains on our faces.
Love Mum & Dad. XXXXXXXXXXX

Mother & Son
We are connected my child and I
By an invisible cord not seen by the eye
It's not like the cord that connects you at birth
This cord can't be seen by any on earth
This cord does it work, right from the start
It binds us together, attached to my heart
I know that it's there, though no one can see
This invisible cord from my child to me
The strength of this cord is hard to describe
It can't be destroyed, it can't be denied
Its stronger than any cord man could create
It withstands the test, can hold any weight
And though you are gone, though you're not here with me
The cord is still there but no one can see
It pulls at my heart, I am bruised ~ I am sore
But this cord is my lifeline as never before
I am thankful that God connects us this way
A mother and child death can't take away
In my thoughts and prayers. Love Liz, Stuart's mum xx

When you are lonely,
I wish you love.
When you are down,
I wish you joy.
When you are troubled,
I wish you peace.
When things are complicated,
I wish you simple beauty.
When things are chaotic,
I wish you inner silence.
When things are empty,
I wish you hope.
When you need your Angel,
I wish you faith...to know they are with you...always.
All my love Liz, Stuart Maxwell's mum xx
TO SEE
IM LESS NOW THAN I SHOULD BE
SURROUNDED BY DARKNESS
I FIND IT HARD TO SEE,
FOREVER KNEELING ON MY KNEES
BEGGING FOR YOU
TO COME BACK TO ME.
YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE FOR ME
ALWAYS WILLING ONLY TO PLEASE,
MY RAY OF SUNSHINE
COME DAY OR NIGHT,
UNTIL YOUR WINGS YOU GOT,
AND THEN TOOK FLIGHT.
TOMORROW LIKE TODAY
BY YOUR SIDE, ALL THE WAY
THAT'S WHERE I WOULD BE,
TOGETHER AGAIN, JUST YOU AND ME
WHOLE AGAIN, WITH YOUR SMILE TO SEE.

May the winds of love blow softly; and whisper in your ear, how much we love and miss you; and wish that you were here ♥
love as always Alison

It's raining outside..
So cold and wet
Is it sunny in heaven?
It is I bet
Water falls from the sky..
Just like my tears..
That I cry
I cry so much..
And I hurt with pain
Since you went to heaven..
I've not been the same
I miss you so much..
As the days go by
My tears fall slowly..
As I wipe my eyes
I think of you..
With joy and pride
Please keep me safe..
And walk by my side
I look up to the sky..
As I think of you with love
My sweet Angel..
In heaven above

WHY
I FEEL SO DOWN
AND EMPTY INSIDE,
MY PAIN CONTINUALLY
HARD TO HIDE.
I FEEL SO SAD
AND LONELY TO,
LIVING THIS LIFE
IT'S HARD.. WITHOUT YOU.
I FEEL SO ANGRY
THAT LIFE TOOK YOU,
IT DOES'NT MAKE SENCE
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
EACH DAY SEEM'S PIONTLESS
LIKE LIVING A LIE,
I LONG FOR MY END
UNTIL THEN, I ASK "WHY".
