Seven years today we lost you, Shane. A tragedy. So young and so much more to do.
I miss you so much son. I went to Merewether beach today (our family beach) to the spot we sprinkled your ashes in the waves. I sent lily's out to you. I was looking for you amongst all the surfers. Wish I found you. I wish you were here.
Talisha and Lilly were here in October for mum's 90th. Grandma still talks about you, her first grandchild and calls Ned and Jet, Shane.
Talisha, Lilly and I were looking through the photo albums of you and them. Lots of interest, stories and laughter. Then I heard "it's just not the same anymore with dad not here " with tears.
They wish you were here.
We all loved you Shane, and thanks for loving us.
Mum xo

Shane you finished up today. Around this time they say
I thought the world stopped that day. The most important person has gone away. 
Honoured you then and today.
I stopped then and do this day.
Quietly remembered and missed everyday
Beautiful boy the love never goes away
Love you to the moon and back

I loved that since you were little you wanted me to be part of your life and we shared many good times wether it be sharing biscuits and a pillow in front of the telly you on my loungeroom floor or preparing your pushbike for a round Australia trip with a torch and duct tape or visiting to proudly show off your daughter's. You never judged me and always made me and my kids feel special it was great to have you in our life and we miss you love always Aunty Frances XOXO

Shane Shane Shane, my darling boy. I am always looking for you. Today I found you here (Dear Sheree). I still hear you calling out mum. I go to the sights were your ashes are and just want you to swim into my arms. I live on the lake now. Your ashes are at Newe beach, near shark alley. ( you wanted me to feed you to the sharks when you died, you said recycle me). Sometimes I look out on the lake and think came on Shane swim through Swansea Heads into the lake and came and see me. I still wait for you to call me on special occasions.

I am always proud to be your mum and felt lucky to have a son who would come see me or call me for Mothers Day, my birthday, Christmas and New Year no matter where you were or how unwell. When you called me you would say mum it's Shane. Once when you said this I said I know it's you sweetheart you are the only male in the world who calls me mum.
I have the last Mothers Day card you posted to me and I bring it out every year. Shane you always let me know you loved me and thanked me for loving you.

Shane I always said we grew up together as you came into my life when I was a teenager. The best day of my life. As you became a teenager I worried I was going to lose you. A mothers worst nightmare. Shane you told me I would get over losing you. I haven't. A part of me died that day. Broken forever.

Shane you are so loved by family, friends past and present, and everyone that met you liked you, even professionals, they told me.

Thank you dear son for being in my life for 37 years.
Forever 37.
Loving you, missing you. Your Mum your Mother, you called me both.

Dearest Shane, today you would have turned 40, not a day goes by where we don't think of you, you are forever etched in our heart and souls. The girls are so like you and are growing up to be beautiful smart happy girls. They love and miss you so much. Happy birthday Shane, love Sheree, Rianna, Talisha and Lilly.
