My name is Helen, i am now 30 years old. I was 24, and Chris was 28 when he passed. My Chris was my fiance. We were together for 4 years, we were due to get married on the 21st July 2007. We have 3 children, Ella now age 13, Max who is 7 and my little Alfie is 6 years old. Even though Chris was not Ella's natural father Chris loved her as his own and Ella called him Dad.
My Chris was tragically taken away from us in an industrial accident at work at Mini Mix Concrete Company. On the 7th November 2005. He was killed after becoming trapped in heavy machinery due to gross negligence for breach of health and safety requirements. He had only been working at the plant as a technician for 2 months. Christopher was held for 9 months before his body was released for burial, due to a criminal investigation. This week the owner and site manager have pleaded guilty to manslaughter for the death of my fiance. The case was adjourned until the 5th July for reports. Ill let you know how it goes.
My Chris was a lovable gorgeous guy, he had a big heart, big smile and just a big lovable personality. He loved our family life and me and our children were the most important thing to him. I have so many great memories of him, just like so many people. Our children were only 7, 15 months and 4 months old when he past. and the sad thing is he would be devastated and heartbroken that he has left us. But it was not his fault.He was in the RAF for 6 years and left because he didn't want to work away from me and our children. He had tried 3 different jobs after leaving the RAF and they were just stepping stones to get where he wanted to be. If he had stay in RAF he would still be here with us today. He didn't deserve to die this way, nobody does. Nobody should go to work and have they life cut short because of cowardice, stupidity and greed. He was 28 and had everything to live for.
A life without my Chris?
Well its empty-my house is always full and full of noise but it can be the loneliest place without him.
A LETTER FOR AN ANGEL
To MY DARLING FIANCE CHRIS
I cannot believe I've spent 6 years with out you, as we were both prepared to spend the rest of or lives together and watch each other grow old. All our dreams will never come true, I often think about them and it just seems so unfair you were taken away from us all to soon.
You have missed so much already, Alfie's 1st word his 1st step. All our children have grown so much you would be so proud.Every morning when I wake up I look at our children I see you. Its like people say your spirit will live on in your children that is so true as they are both just like you.Our Max has started to ask questions and whats to know where his Daddy has gone, all i can say is that you are with the Angels.As we all move on the heartache remains you just learn to live with that feeling as it will be with me forever more....
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
THERE ARE MOMENTS IN MY LIFE WHERE I WANT TO TAKE YOU FROM MY DREAMS AND HOLD YOU FOR REAL. YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND, MY LOVER AND MY LIFE. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE LOVE WE SHARED AND I WILL TAKE IT WITH ME AND TILL WE MEET AGAIN. SLEEP TIGHT MY DARLING XX
I LOVE YOU STINKY...I ALWAYS HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL... XXXXXXXXXX
YOUR LOVING FIANCEE HX
WE LOVE YOU DADDY WE MISS OUR CUDDLES FROM OUR HAIRY BEAR XXX
ELLA, MAX AND LITTLE ALFIE XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
James Blunt- Good Bye My Lover was played at my Chris funeral. The words are if he was talking to me, they are very true,
Coldplay- Scientist was our song at the beginning of our relationship.
The boss of The Concrete Company was jailed for 12 months after admitting manslaughter by gross negligence and a number of health and safety charges. He was also found liable for costs of £89,000 against him and was fined £75,000.
The site manager was jailed for 9 months after admitting the same charges.
They will ONLY serve under half of their prison sentence.
Never forgetting ....
6 years ago today my life was smashed into 100 million thousand pieces, never thinking it could ever be put back together again.....
while love 1s and friends lives started to return back to normal my stood still. I slowly started to learn to live with this feeling, it was like a little person in my heart it had a feeling of being scared, lonely and very empty.
Remembering the 1st time I laughed with my Mum, Ella and Max in my kitchen, that little person felt guilt, then soon our laughter soon turned into tears...
Not wanting to wake up in the mornings and face another day, that little person said 'come on we can do this today'
All i wanted was my life back, I just couldn't accept or want anything else....
learning to accept that the life i once had, had gone was the hardest thing ive ever had to do... but its OK to start living again... that little person taught me that.
This little person didn't just want to be remembered what happened 6 years ago today, he wanted me to cherish his memory, let it live on never forget what a special short time we had together.
We mention him everyday with a smile or laughter of his memories that he has left us with..
That little person in my heart will never go away, hes with me for life. Sometimes its still sad and you can feel a ache and longing for him... but its OK to cry...but mostly its warm, its memory is happy,
That little person is Christopher Philip Meachen xxx
xxx RIP sweetheart xxx
We love you lots and we will never forget xxx
H xx Ella xx Max xx and Alfie xx

_................ANGEL DAY
..........Today is very special,
........It comes by once a year.
.....It’s the day you went to Heaven
.....And the day you left me here.
....................★⋰☆
.......I know I should be happy,
....You’re in your Heavenly home.
......But instead I feel so empty
...........And oh so all alone.
.....................★⋰☆
......Yes, today is very special
...The day you grew your wings.
.......You left so very quickly
.....You didn’t take your things.
....................★⋰☆
......Instead you left me crying,
.........Yet hoping all the while
.....That someday I’ll remember
..........This date with a smile.

HEAVEN’S ANGEL DAY
Today is a very special day,
And Heaven's all a buzz.
Angels are busy protecting us,
And spreading all their love.
But this day in particular,
Is a very special one.
...............★⋰☆…………
It's the day my loved one grew their wings,
And flew to Heaven above.
When an Angel gets their wings,
It’s a very special day.
We honour this occasion,
And we call it "Angel Day."

THE ANGELS WISHING WELL
Angels have a wishing well.
Cause they have wishes, too.
They’re different from the ones we have
Their wishes are for you!
They wish that you will be okay,
And that you’ll stop the crying.
Since your loved one went to Heaven,
They’ve been busy trying and trying,
To let you know that they’re still here,
It’s just you cannot see them.
But they’re always at your side,
Although you don’t believe them.
So they throw all of their wishes
Into the Angels wishing well.
They wish that you will be alright,
And that your heart will heal.

Wishes
The things we feel most deeply
are the hardest things to say.
But we wish with all our hearts
that you were here today
xxxx
Missing You
Look around your garden
Lord,for an angel with a smile.
That will be our Daddy,
For he will stand out a mile.
Put your arms around him Lord
And never let him go.
Tell him that we miss him and that,
We will always love him so.
Ella Max and Alfie

Always in my heart
It's surprising how often I think of you,
turn to speak to you and realise you're not right there
as I expect you to be.
I guess I hold you so close in thought that it's hard to understand
sometimes that you aren't close in person
but I wanted to let you know
I'm thinking of you and there is a isn't a day that goes past where your name is not mentioned,
or a smile is made by a memory of you
wishing we could talk and just be together awhile
I have so much to tell you
I really miss you x x x x x x x x x x x x
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
I read the cards for birthdays,
And the verses bring a tear.
For the loving words are written,
To those who are still here.
They say you are in a better place,
I hope and pray it's true.
But....today is your Birthday,
And your family are missing you.

FOR HELEN
Have you ever truly heard
an Angel whisper in your ear?
Their voices are soft and comforting
letting you know you have nothing to fear....
If you listen very carefully
you might just hear their sweet voice
Whispering to you of Gods perfect love
and help you make your choice....
They do their very best
to always watch over you
To keep you safe and happy
in everything you do....
So next time you feel lonely
kind of scared or feeling blue
Just whisper to your angel
and listen....for they will whisper back to you....
