Your loss hit us all deaply but drugs had a strong hold of you and would not let go. You finally had enough and didn't see any other way out. So you took your own life on Mums sofa. She found comfort in the fact you did not die alone.
R.I.P little bro. I hope you are having fun in heaven with Dad and Allen and taking good care of my little angel Christopher.
I would just like to let you know Gordon that i forgave you for all the times you hurt me. You were a rogue but a cheeky lovable little rogue. We all miss and love you. Love your big Sis. xx
Son of Ken Smith, Brother of Allen and Uncle of Christopher James.

Happy Birthday Gordon
"How do I say goodbye to a brother
That I love as much as you?
I still cannot believe you're gone
I'm still hoping it isn't true
Wishing this heartache was just a dream
From which I'd wake up and find
You still here, in life, with us
Or if not...somehow time we could rewind
For I don't know how to do it
How to say goodbye to a brother like you
There's almost no one who's shared as much of my life
Who knows me as well as you
I often think upon the memories we shared
When we were very young
You teased me, played with me and laughed with me
When our lives had just begun
When we shared simple thoughts and simple dreams
And were lost in childhood's plans
Dreaming up our next adventures
In the vivid ways only children can
And as we grew up there were more special moments...

Reflection
Another day for you to wonder, another day for you to mourn
It wasn't my intention to go before the coming dawn
My pain was deep within my heart and troubled head
It wasn't my intention to go without words said.
My frame of mind seemed normal, or so I heard them say
It wasn't my intention not to see another day
I did not mean to make you suffer or cause you so much pain
It wasn't my intention to never see you again.
Despair and confusion left my aching mind unsure
It wasn't my intention to suddenly close life's door
If only I could give you reasons and brush the tears away
It wasn't my intention to leave you and not stay.
I did not mean for you to grieve, now left alone to cry
It wasn't my intention to leave you, forever asking why
As the burdens of life's worries slowly ebb from my heart
it wasn't my intention to tear your soul apart

SO,SO,SORRY
If there is something I have learned, it is that you will not find
the answer to the “why” of this, not now anyway. God did not
make this happen, but He will help you live, love and laugh
again. Sometimes that can seem very difficult when you hurt
and so badly want answers.
I want you to live today; be happy. Bring laughter back into
the house. Dare to dream again. You know so much better than
many that life is often too short, too unpredictable. Tomorrow is
never guaranteed.
I would rather this all be a very bad nightmare, but I can do
nothing to change that now. However, you can make something
good out of my death if you use it as an opportunity to love each
other a little more, and reach out. There are so many hurting
people out there who need a hand, or a hug or a “hello” or just
someone to listen. Don’t be afraid to admit you may be one of
them. Be gentle with each other.
On a still, clear night, look for me, out there in the peace and
quiet. Look up, not by the Big Dipper or the Milky Way, but over
there in the corner of the sky. See that small, twinkling star you
never noticed before?
One more thing before I go, thanks a lot for everything you
did for me. Thanks for caring and sharing. Thanks for trying and
for crying. I love you, lots. And Mom and Dad, “good-bye”,
“good-bye for just a little while longer”.
LOVE JUDE.X
