Stephen Barker (24) a wild child at heart. Died at 8.43 am on the morning of the 19th August 2008.
He leaves a partner Leia and two children Charlie & Jamie. He will be sadly missed by his Mam,
Michael, Brother & Sister and his Nanna as well as his extended family.
Stephen truly has gone before his time he had so much to offer this world yet time was taken from
him. At 24 he was just setting out in life, his memory will be treasured and not a day will go by
where he is not thought of in some little way.
He will always be there, take a look around he is the sunshine in your hair, he is the shadow on the
ground, the whisper in the wind and your imaginary friend, he is the beat in your heart, the
moonlight shining down. Stephen you will always be in our hearts and thoughts.
We will miss you, but we will continue the fight against leukaemia on your behalf.
Love from all your family.

For Stephen and Abi. Thinking of you, Abi, and sending you my deepest sympathy
With Hope
by Steven Curtis Chapman
This is not at all how
We thought it was supposed to be
We had so many plans for you
We had so many dreams
And now you've gone away
And left us with the memories of your smile
And nothing we can say
And nothing we can do
Can take away the pain
The pain of losing you, but ...
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no
And we can grieve with hope
'Cause we believe with hope
(There's a place by God's grace)
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again
And never have I known
Anything so hard to understand
And never have I questioned more
The wisdom of God's plan
But through the cloud of tears
I see the Father's smile and say well done
And I imagine you
Where you wanted most to be
Seeing all your dreams come true
'Cause now you're home
And now you're free, and ...
We have this hope as an anchor
'Cause we believe that everything
God promised us is true, so ...
So we can cry with hope
And say goodbye with hope
We wait with hope
And we ache with hope
We hold on with hope
We let go with hope

i never thought of writing anything like this when i found out you had the cancer , i couldnt belive it to be honest the fact that i have to write this about my 24 year old cousin breaks my heart , you fought and fought but the leukimia won! , no matter what happens you'll always be in my heart. i thought you would of lived on but unfortuantly that didnt happen, i still remember the day you and andrew and james and that hung me off a telephone post at jamies christening the happy days and siting talking to you about phones ipods and god knows what else. you were the cousin that i could always rely on to tell me about phones and stuff , never ever ever am i going to stop thinking of you , gods garden was empty so he needed to fill it with angles so he chose you. your at peace now babe, were all so so upset that your gone but at the end of the day god only takes the best always in our hearts ,love you so much cousin , rip
love your little cousin alexx

OUR VERY SPECIAL FOUR LEAF CLOVERS
A FOUR LEAF CLOVER
A four leaf clover
A treasure priceless and rare
Like my child in heaven above
Now in gods tender loving care.
Each leaf a meaning a part of my grief
One leaf for strength
One for memories so dear
One leaf for peace
And one for my faith in god above.
Each represents a part of my life
My child in heaven
Forever missed and forever loved.
The first leaf on the clover
Stands for strength
To make it through the day
From morning to night darkness to light
With gods help each step of the way.
The second leaf on the clover
Stands for peace
That only god can bring
A peace that restores my mourning heart
Smoothes the edges of pain
And help me learn to live again.
The third leaf on the clover
Stands for memories
That I hold dear
Their spirit will shine on
In the memories left behind
Although time may pass
They will never disappear.
The fourth leaf on the clover
Stands for faith in god above
Believing with all my heart
In what I cannot see
Knowing we will meet again
By the golden gates in heaven above.
Until then I’ll Keep my memories
Tucked deep inside with love
Along with my four leaf clover
My treasures from heaven above.
A clover A treasure Blessings
From above strength peace
Memories and faith
All sent from heaven with gods everlasting love.
There is a special Angel in Heaven
that is part of me.
It is not where I wanted him
but where God wanted him to be.
He was here but just a moment
like a night time shooting star.
And though he is in Heaven
He isn't very far.
He touched the hearts of many
like only an Angel can do.
So I send this special message
to the Heaven up above.
Please take care of my Angel
and send HIM all my love.
