In loving memory of
David Matthew Pemble
20.9.88 - 5.8.04
Beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend, David died 5th August 2004, aged 15, following a supremely courageous 2-year battle against leukaemia.
David was a fun-loving teenager, gifted and talented, who enjoyed hiking, reading, cricket, climbing, piano, computer games, golf, chess, Latin, swimming, hamsters, trumpet, jigsaws, maths, camping, philosophy, football, scrabble, playing the harp, snooker, Manchester United, the company of friends, and much, much more.
He was loyal, gentle, patient and compassionate, and his courage, fortitude, wisdom and serenity in the face of overwhelming adversity was truly inspirational. We all miss him more than anyone can possibly imagine. This grief is like no other. Please don't expect us ever to "get over it" because we won't, despite the mask of normality.
Thankyou for visiting David's site. Please add your memories for others to enjoy and remember him by. (Double-click on the pictures in the gallery to enlarge). It means a lot to us to know you care.

Yet another new year has begun.. So much has happened since you were taken from us but your are always in my thoughts... I still sleep with Cowy on my bed every night. Sometimes I wonder what you'd be doing with your life now... I can only begin to imagine.. It feels like only yesterday we were sitting tryin to do those impossible puzzles... There was the 1 with the fish that you couldn't even do, I still have it but well, let's be honest, if you didn't do it I've no chance.. I miss you so much... It doesn't get any easier. Sometimes I look to the sky n wonder what you'd think of me when I make some not so smart decisions, then again you're prob used to me doing that : ) love you so much david.. Carrie xxxx

You spoke to me often when David was here
Please don't let that change now he's dead
Just smile at me, greet me, then go on your way
Acknowledge me, don't turn your head.
Don't ever be frightened to talk of my child
It brings me great joy and relief
Please don't think you're hurting me if I should cry
You're helping me cope with my grief
At times when I'm silent and words just don't come
I'm sorry, it may seem I'm rude
It's nothing you've said and it's nothing you've done
But sometimes I need solitude
My life has been changed by the death of my child
The person I was also died
But please try to know me for who I am now
Look deeply, I'm screaming inside
I know you will try to say all the right things
But they come out all wrong don't you see
I'd much rather you could be honest and true
By doing that, I can be me.
Cry with me, talk with me, open your heart
Don't hide how you feel, be a friend
You cannot protect me by hiding your thoughts
It just causes me to pretend
I think of my David and feel so much love
That love that we shared keeps me sane
But sometimes I think how his death came about
The anguish, the fear and the pain
Allow me to do this, it's part of my need
It's something that I have to feel
It's not that I torture myself as you think
I'm trying to cope with what's real
So next time you see me don't fluster, don't fret
Just hug me and show me you care
And I won't presume that you know how I feel
So don't try, just be you, just be there.

David, we miss you so very much. It's now 3 years since you left us, but nothing heals the pain. Holding you in our hearts for ever xxxxxx
You gave your son life. you gave him shelter -- a home. you gave him food and drink. you clothed him. you taught him right from wrong, gave your values and built up his character. when he was triumphant, you shared his joy. when he was sick you cared for him, encouraged him and cried for him. you loved him with all your heart, and when that wasn't enough, you loved him even more. You stayed to the bitter end, yea even unto the shadow of death.
How could you have done more?
You did everything
