Mark (Buster) was the eldest of three children, to my Mam and Dad he was a gentle giant with a heart
of gold, which is true due to the size and built of him, most people were probably afraid of him but
deep down he wouldn’t hurt a fly.

Since Trina and me were born your the big brother we worship, look up to, put us right and even the
one who has taken the rap for us especially when it came to fights with our belated Michelle, they
were a scream, all it took was to call her “Shirley Bassey” and the pair of you would be at each
other fighting like cat and dog, but as we got older things calmed down.

You were also a great father to two children who you leave behind, Holly and Cameron, you loved and
worshipped them with all your heart and would even do anything for them.

Mark will also be missed by Jenene, Matthew, Joycey and Pete our Trina’s partner.

We are also glad you got to meet Roy my partner, you know he has been a rock to us all these last
couple of days, especially when it is only four months since his Mam passed away. I have sat with
him and more or less said I understand just how hard it has been to try and overcome it, but deep
down I know he never has and never will.

Mark also loved his football and worshipped Chelsea and would try his hardest to get people to
support the same team, he was also a fanatic of Pool’s , which he has followed more or less all
his life.

Mark, the memories we all have of you will definitely be with us always, especially the good times,
fun times, sad times but most of all the best times, which definitely out weigh those by a hundred
fold. The main thing is the closeness of the whole family, especially when it comes to things like
this, we can keep each other going and be strong for one another, laugh together and talk for what
seems like an eternity together.

We will all look after each other and be strong for my Mam and Dad, after all they have both been
through a lot since last year, if we can get through that, we can slowly overcome this. It is just
trying to find that inner strength that has bonded us together and will be kept going.

One way or another kidder you will be missed, not just by your family but by all your friends as
well and deep down we know, you will never be far away spreading your little jokes, looking down on
us and being there when we need you.

Take care Buster, sleep tight, Nana Rosie will look after you now and shine on you crazy diamond.
REST IN PEACE MARK.xxxx

MISSING MY BIG BROTHER X

From day one without knowing it,i loved you with all my heart,as i grew older i looked up to you and to no other,yes,we fought many of times but you supported and encouraged me in everything i did.you were my best friend and my hero,at night i miss the sound of your music,i miss you climbing through the window when you were late,i miss your comfort and the way you made me feel safe.i miss all our nonsense arguments and all our wrestling matches just to pass the time,i like to remember our times together good times and the bad,i regret the times i yelled at you when you were only trying to help,but you know i only did it cos you did it to me.i wanted to do everything you did because i wanted to JUST like you.i miss your smile and i miss the way our room smelt of your cologne,but most of all i miss your reassuring hugs and your playful kisses.i wish i could go back and tell you how i felt,tell you that i really need you no matter what i said,i kept your favorite sweater and i wear it every time i miss you like i did when i was little,i will always love you no matter how long its been, since the day your life came to an end.
I miss my big brother xxx
