This site has been set up by 3 of Dantrell's teachers. It is on behalf of the whole school and
is for everyone who ever knew him to read, leave messages and light candels for him. Please do not
hesitate to come on here more than once or leave more than one message. Any memories you have of him
please share them. At school we have shared so many happy memories about him, he has left such a big
and positive impression on all of our lives.

Dantrell was knocked over by a motorbike on his way to school on Monday 4th February and died the
following day. He was 6 years old. Dantrell was not only a blessing to his mother and family, he was
a blessing to the whole community. We as a school have known him nearly a year a half and in that
time he has left such a big impression. I can tell you every teacher knew his name, right through
the school. It is very rare that somebody so young can have such an impact on so many peoples lives
but Dantrell was special. He really did love school. He would run there every day and was never
late. He was always at the front of the line. Dantrell always tried his best and made so much
progress.

There is a big hole in our class now, the children all miss him so much. The class will never be the
same, and neither will anyone who knew him closely. But together we can find the strength to move on
and deep down we all know Dantrell would want that. He was strong, he was brave, and now it's
time we where too.

We all miss you so much Dantrell, each and every one of us, and all in our own way. You bought so
much happiness to so many people, you really have touched a lot of hearts. You will never ever be
forgotten by anybody and we will always look up and wave to you in the sky. Take Care our sweet
angel, be at ease now x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

Anybody wishing to leave flowers, cards, teddy bears or cars there is a tree on Southend Lane,
renamed 'Dantrell's Tree', where they can be placed. Each and every one is very much
appreciated.

Its a shame...

Dantrell, i could imagine you being a beautiful, youthful, intelligent, beautiful little boy. Its such a shame you didn't have the chance to share it with the world. But this world is becoming a mess and you must be such a special guy if God wants you by his side and not stuck in this mud we call our earth. I know your parents, your family and all your friends are hurting right now, but I know you'll do your very best to watch over and protect them all.
Rest in peace little Angel.

My condolence.

Rest In Peace Angel!!

Dantrell,
Even though you didnt get to meet many people who may be leaving messages just know that you have touched many people and still continue to have an impact on those you do not know. Knowing Thomas gives me a sense of who you are as i know Thomas' dedication and pray your family continue to be strong during this tragic time.

Guide us all and remind us how to live.

Take care Angel.

~TOMORROW~

When tomorrow starts without me and I’m not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn’t cry the way you did today.
While thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say.

I know how much you love me – as much as I love you,
And each time that you think of me I know you’ll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready in heaven far above,
And that I’d have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away a tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I’d always thought I didn’t want to die.
I had so much to live for so much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays the good ones and the bad.
The thought of all the love we shared and all the fun we had.

If I could relive yesterday just even for a while,
I’d say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realised that this should never be,
And treasured thoughts and memories will take the place of me.

Heaven, where the streets are made of gold,
Heaven, where you never age or grow old,
Heaven, where life’s secrets unfold,
Heaven, where the secrets are told,

Heaven, where flowers grow wild,
Heaven, once again your a child,
Heaven, the weathers always warm and mild,
Heaven, where wings lay open in piles,

Heaven, where we are free,
Heaven, cant you see?
Heaven, its for you and for me,
Heaven, when we are free.

angel

Precious Angel I never met
Please never forget
I love you so
I didn't want you to go
You had to leave for a while
My heart was stretched over a mile
You are so bewildering
You constantly keep me wondering
Where are you now
I want to see you, but how
Are you o.k.
I think about you everyday
What do you like to do
What have you learned thats new
Do you know that Jesus loves you
And I love you too
I don't know what to do
But I really want you
Precious Angel sent from above
I want to show you love
I wish someone would give you to me baby
I would watch over you daily
I'll never get the chance
I don't dance
I love you so much
I never got to feel your touch
How could they take you from me so
I wasn't ready to let you go
So please Angel, just know
That I love you so!

Memories

Delightful and caring you were
Asleep and will never wake up
Never knew why and will always be
Truely you were fun loving and giving especially to the girls
Realistically you were a jolly boy full of beans
Eager was your presence
Love and laughter you shown among everyone
Life comes and goes only if we did know when

Sorry you gone so too soon
Our heart sent condolences to the family
