Dearest Kieran, I'm so sorry you felt the need to leave us. I hope you know just how much you are loved by us all. You will be dearly missed. I will always remember your infectious smile and sunny personality. You had this way of brightening everyone's day, not to mention getting away with so much because of your cheeky ways. You were always so compassionate and loving that no one could help but love you. I've been thinking a lot of your trip out to New Zealand, years ago now, how much fun we all had and how James and Rachel adored you and Aaron. Do you remember visiting Muriwai beach? It wasn't the warmest of days so we all had our jumpers on but that didn't stop you, it wasn't long before you had stripped down for a dip in the sea! I'm sorry we didn't get to see you very often with living so far away. During our few short trips back over the years, we got to see you grow into an amazing young man. Now it doesn't feel like anywhere near enough. We were all so looking forward to seeing you and Grandma for a visit next year that'll now never happen. It's with a very sore heart that I say goodbye to you Kieran, you will always be in my heart and thoughts. All my love, Anna.
