Adam Dean Elstob, taken in December 2005 at the age of 14, leaving his family and friends devastated.Adam attended Brinkburn Comprehensive School and never missed a day of school. He was a bright young man and had potential to go very far.
Adam had two brothers.One older, David.One of the same age Jordan.His Father Dean and Step-mam Vanessa were both very devastated with their loss, as was Adam's mother who lives away.
Adam was a very lovable person and most would say, very easy to get along with.Adam had a great sense of humor and was always keen to learn more.
Adam drew his own comics for his family to read and swore he would have them published when he was older, unfortunatly due to what happened he never had the chance to carry out his dream.
Adam was very loving towards his family and very rarely went past the doors, he considered school time the time to be around his friends, and past the bell was family time.Adam would spend nights playing on his computer and drawing his comic strips for his family to read, which always made us laugh and smile.
Adam was a keen sportsman, he was a strong footballer and a good cricketer, he was a very fast young man who could out run his brothers and all their friends as well as his own.
As nice and kind a person as anyone would have been lucky to meet.
Ask My Mum How She Is
My Mum, she tells a lot of lies,
She never did before.
But from now until she dies,
She'll tell a whole lot more.
Ask my Mum how she is
And because she can't explain,
She will tell a little lie
Because she can't describe the pain.
Ask my Mum how she is,
She'll say 'I'm alright.'
If that's the truth, then tell me,
why does she cry each night?
Ask my Mum how she is,
She seems to cope so well.
She didn't have a choice you see,
Nor the strength to yell.
Ask my Mum how she is,
'I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping.'
For God's sake Mum, just tell the truth,
Just say your heart is broken.
She'll love me all her life,
I loved her all of mine.
But if you ask her how she is,
She'll lie and say she's fine.
I am Here in Heaven.
I cannot hug from here.
If she lies to you don't listen,
Hug her and hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
We'll smile and I'll be bold.
I'll say, 'You're lucky to get in here, Mum,
With all the lies you told.
sent with love xxx
For mum
Something will remind me
I never know just when
It might be something someone says
And it all comes back again
The times we spent together
The happiness, the fun
Once again I feel the pain
Of life without my son
It's said that times a healer
I'm not sure that is true
There is not a day goes by son
That I don't cry for you
God bless you Adam xx
Sorry

with love to Adam;s family
A Broken Heart That Speaks
I feel more depressed
Each day when I awake
I wish to god you could tell me
There has been a big mistake.
My darling son was taken
From his mothers love
To live with the angels
In heaven up above
I did not have him with me
For the time I should have had
No longer can I hold him
Which makes me very sad?
The pain of losing my son
Shows in every single tear
I spend each day missing you
Longing to have you near
Life for me is lonely now
Without you by my side
My Broken shattered heart
Is very hard to hide
People tell me that time is a healer
That the pain will go away
They don’t understand
That this pain is here to stay
For when you lose a child
There is nothing that can compare
The bond we had at their birth
Will never leave, it’s always there
The love a mother has
Runs so very deep
That love is so special
It’s in her heart to keep
A mother’s heart is broken
She is ripped apart inside
There is a part of her missing
It left when her child died
So please don’t tell me to get over it
For this I can not do
Unless you understand my feelings
And this has happened to you
Only another mother who has lost a child
Can understand my pain
Because the also suffer daily
As the memories of their child remain
We are a band of mothers
Whose hearts will never heal?
For the loss of our children
Is for us, so very real.
