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.

My memories
I have so many happy memories of Dantrell, it's hard to know where to begin. I think the stand out one though comes from about 2 weeks ago. I took him out of class to do some writing and in all honesty it wasn't very interesting, Dantrell was much more interested in playing with the cars he could see. I picked up the whipe board and pen and showed him how to write 'cars'. It took him about 10 minutes to learn and i must of repeated the word 100 times but he eventually got it. He was so proud and so was i. A truly special boy who i miss so, so much. I will love you always xxxxxxxxxxxx
