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

THE SILENCE OF MY HEART.
IN THE SILENCE OF MY HEART
MY MIND STILL CRIES FOR ANSWER.
THE PAIN COMES CALLING ONCE AGAIN
AND TEARS WASH THROUGH MY SOUL.
THE NEED TO UNDERSTAND STILL SO STRONG
THE LOVE ONCE FELT SO CLOSE AT HAND.
TEMPTATION TO REACH OUT TO YOU,
ALMOST TO TOUCH YOUR HAND,
ALMOST TO HEAR YOUR VOICE
ALMOST TO SHARE YOUR SPIRIT
SO CLOSE TO MY HEART.
THE MEMORIES LINGER
AND IN THE STILLNESS OF MY BEING
STILL BECKON TO ME.
I WISH YOU ALL A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND MY FRIEND,
WITH LOVE AS ALWAYS LINDA.XXX
ALWAYS IN MIND
⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰
Time has stood still for those who love you,
the grief is still fresh, their hearts are still blue.
Memories can ease pain but they never can fill,
the space that is left when they think of you still.
So stay near to those who miss you each day,
for they carry a sadness since you went away.
Send the strength to cope where others have tried,
and some love for their hearts that hurt deep inside.
⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰ ⊱♥⊰
Sweet dreams angel. Sending love to you and your loved ones.xxx

ST THERESA
As I look up to the skies above,
The stars stretch endlessly--
But somehow all those rays of light
Seem dimmer now to me.
As I watch the morning sun appear,
The shadows still don't fade—
As if the brightest light of all
Was somehow swept away.
Though I see the branches swaying,
And watch their dancing leaves--
The echoes carried on the wind
Don't sound the same to me.
As I listen to the morning birds
Sing softly from afar--
It seems to be a mournful tune
That echoes in my heart.
Another day has come again,
As time moves surely on--
But nothing now seems quite the same,
To know that he is gone.
The days and weeks and months ahead
Will never be the same--
Because a treasure beyond words
Can never be replaced.
The loss cannot be measured now,
The void cannot be filled--
And though someday the grief may fade,
His mark will live on still.
For even with my heavy heart,
I know that I've been blessed
To have been one who's life he touched
With warmth so infinite.
Sending my love as always.xxxx
Let's not count the miles in between, they're not what matters most.
Let us recall the joys we've shared, those thoughts will keep us close.
Let us fill our minds with thoughts, of memories held dear,
And the miles in between us will just seem to disappear.
love as always Alison
