Kane’s Story
Kane was born in Consett on the 05/06/90. He entered this world weighing 4lb 6oz. He was a
beautiful baby & was loved by all. When he was growing up he was always thin, this used to worry me
but it was just the way he was.
Kane is the third son of Christina.
Kane has two older brothers Joel and Nick; he also has a younger brother Matthew and a little sister
Lynnette.
Kane did not have an easy life. He worried about his little brother as he has a severe heart
condition. He worried about anyone when they were ill or sad.
He had to work hard at things and was bullied when he was young.
Kane cared for people; he would make things for them & spend his money on others. He would buy
things for no reason other than to give or make some-one happy.
Kane loved Japanese cartoon art and was always drawing or painting. He was great at drawing
pictures of people. He loved to create things and would make things out of wood or anything else he
could find.
He would try to do anything I asked him whether it was fixing a light or plumbing a shower.
Although not everything he "fixed" worked again. He once spent hours fixing the kitchen heater & it
has never worked since. Another time he replaced all the door handles for me and one is at 45
degrees. He would always try though.
Kane could be very clumsy but it could be so funny. When he was young he was determined to climb
this tree and fell out of the same tree four times but he did it in the end. He once fell down the
stairs and got up and ran into the wall. I have many memories like this and cherish every one of
them.
Kane left this Earth on the 07/03/07. The day before his death he was upset about an email he had
from his ex girlfriend but we talked and he was fine. The day of his death he was going to see
about an apprenticeship he had applied for. He had no money left so I gave him a few pounds & my
last words to him were " I'm not that bad am I?", he smiled his cheeky smile & replied " I’ve got
my keys". He left the house at lunch time. I had to go out & passed him 2 minutes from his
destination, which was the last time I saw my baby alive. When I returned home I had a bad feeling
so I tried to phone him, there was no answer so I kept trying. After a while I went looking for him
and at 10pm I phoned the police.
Two officers came to the house and after a while told me they had found the body of a young lad at
the bottom of the Gill Bridge. I was devastated and still am. They would not let me see him until
2pm the next day. I had to identify his body, his brother Nick was with me. I went in to shock and
never questioned things so when they said he had jumped I did not ask why.
At his funeral some-one told me Kane did not jump or fall. I was in a state & did not take it in.
Later those words came back and I started to question things. And if I could find the name of the
person that told me.
I phoned the police and two CID officers came. I was asked if I was sure I heard right?
Kane was found at the bottom of a 180ft bridge, he had no broken bones, and he had two marks on his
forehead, a bruised nose, a black eye, two bust lips & a bruised right ear. I was told he was found
in a shopping trolley.
Kane was found at 5pm on a bright day and had been there a couple of hours.
How come no-one saw him?
There were a lot of people at Kane's funeral and I did not know them all. Kane had no reason to
jump, he was starting the apprenticeship and wanted to start his own business, he had updated his
bebo the night before and the things he wrote were not the things some-one that was suicidal would
write.
He was also trying to trace his dad and had talked about how much he wanted children when he was
older. Kane had a lot of love to give and was loved. I do not believe my son took his own life and
never will.
If you knew Kane and would like to add pictures or stories about him to his site please do so.
I would like to thank everyone for the candles & tributes left for Kane. They help us so much;
reading the kind messages left here helps me get through each day. I am still fighting for justice
for Kane and will never give up.
Thank you for your support Christina xxx

& care. Thankyou all for the support you have given us today & for helping get us through xxxxxx
I stood by your bed last night;
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.
I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
'It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here.'
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached to me.
I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today; you tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I flew with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently landed on you; I smiled and said, 'it's me.'
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, 'I never went away.'
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say 'good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning.'
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll fly across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me.

♦♥♦ Cherished Memories ♦♥♦
•:*:• ♥ •:*:••:*:• ♥ •:*:••:*:• ♥
Sometimes it's hard to understand
To see the reason why,
Sometimes it's hard to find the words
To say that last goodbye.
Sometimes it's hard to look ahead
With eyes still filled with tears,
But all our cherished memories
Will live on through the years.
And though there are no answers
The questions still remain,
Sometimes we just can't comprehend
Or understand the pain.
Sometimes it's hard to look beyond
The rainclouds in the sky,
Though all our cherished memories
Will stay as time goes by.
Sometimes when we close our eyes
The only thing we see,
Are moments that are long gone by
Of how things used to be.
Sometimes we need to just let go,
Let tears fall as they may,
Reliving cherished memories
That never fade away.

YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
When you hear an Angel softly whisper to you,
In the light of the day, or the darkness of the night.
When you feel the presence of an Angel caress you,
And see their beautiful wings spread in graceful flight.
When something inside you just makes you smile,
Or you feel a warmth suddenly wash over your heart.
When your dreams are beautiful and include an Angel,
As you lay with your head on your pillow, in the dark.
When you're alone, and everything is quiet around you,
Yet you can hear the sweetest lullaby being sung.
When waking up in the morning, any troubles feel lighter,
From speaking with an Angel, before a new day has begun.
Then you know I am the Angel who you can feel and hear;
Your special Angel from Heaven who will always be so near.
I'm no longer able to be here in body, but I'm with you everyday,
As my loving heart, my soul, and my spirit, will never be far away.

Love Always Elaine xxxxxx

Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on
and cherished memories never fade
because a loved ones gone
those we love can never be
more than a thought apart
for as long as there is memory
they'll live on in the heart.
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
There is a special place in our hearts
for those we have loved
for those who have loved us
without question, without a word or promise
there is a special place
where there is no pain or fear
where love flows freely
there is a special place to rest
in our hearts forever.
.☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆ * .☆ * ☆ * ☆ * ☆ *☆ * ☆
I know how much I miss you
I feel an emptiness inside
It shows in everything I do
It's something I can't hide
I simply miss you being there
Life seems dull and flat
Without you nothings quite the same
I can't say more than that
But one day we will meet again
I know that this is true
But everyday until then
I know i'll just be missing you.

Love always elaine xxxxxxxx

I have jst finished reading your story... god my heart feels so sad. Kane has a beautiful smile, with such a warm loving face. For you I will pray for strength, to keep fighting for justice. Our story is pretty much the same, as in knowing that my brother inlaw, gavin williams did not take his own life. Sadley it's the 3rd and last brother of my partner too lose. We also want justice, keep strong and keep asking questions, as one day a little something will not sound right. I pray you get justice. loving thoughts to you all. Godbless kane x
I have just read about your Son Kane. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy and I send love and healing thoughts to you all on this very emotional day.
Kane looks such a handsome young man and having read about him, sounds so caring and loving; you must miss him so much.
I truly understand how you feel as my Daughter's life was taken in the most horrendous way just a couple of months after Kane's. I really hope that you find some answers about what happened to Kane. My Daughter's perpetrator is now behind bars serving a life sentence and it does make a difference but nevertheless, we still struggle to cope and memories flood our minds every day.
If I can help in any way at all, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best wishes.
If I should pass before you,
At my graveside do not cry.
Just like the love between us,
My true self will never die.
