Friday midday

Rockin' in heaven......Mr DJ........

Christmas is coming, the time you loved best,
when all the Bull & Dolphine 'Sinners' .......!!!?
would put you to the test,
"Can you play us 'so-n'- so? " you had no time to rest.
All the golden oldies,the rare ones & the shuffle,
O, how I miss those days Ben, how I miss you,
your gentle voice, your 'feathers' rarily ruffled,
you were so placid, but always stood your ground,
when the sinners got a little!!!!!!!!drunk and
messed you around.
Just before you died, my friend,
you brought around a cd you had made for us,
of the B& D shuffle, what a great sound,
everytime we play it, we feel you are around.
So now that Christmas is coming,
it's party time in heaven too,
It's Jesus birthday & the heavenly host chose you,
to be the D.J for the night,
So heaven will be rockin' too,
and those of the B&D that are with you
will be doing the shuffle too.
Love you, miss you Ben.See you on the other side
in due course.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

3 yrs today

You touched life in such happy ways,
You listened with your heart.
And sunshine seems so hard to find,
Since we have been apart.
You left such lovely memories,
And each one's precious too,
But they cannot replace someone,
Who was loved as much as you.
In dreams, you smile at me,
And somehow seem to say,
This parting's not forever,
We will meet again one day.
No hour goes by without a thought,
Of things you did or said,
And that will always stay the same,
Throughout the years ahead.

Time....

Time cannot erase the memory of you Ben,
We love you now, we loved you then.
A Friend & sometimes were a bit of a pain 'pain'!,
but we would give anything to have you back again.
But you have stepped o're the great divide,
behind the mystery you hide,
And soon the day for us will come,
when we to shall cross and be with you,
and we will live in heavens great family as one.
Do the things we have to do,
'Till then we'll think of you and draw you close,
think on the things that we liked most,
say a pray to God above,
send our thoughts and send our love.
And one day soon we'll see you there and
have all eternity to share,
everything that's in our heart,
as Time will not then keep us apart.
R.I.P. Dear Friend, xxxxxDawn &Tony B.xxxx

Always the showman....Ever the Friend.

What can I say about you Dearest Ben?
We miss you so, the memories never end,
The bad times, the sad times, the good times
You'll always be the showman...our best friend.
Those days of fun and laughter,
brought memories ever after,
Times on which to reflect what used to be,
And how much you entertained us/me,
With your music and your banter,
Master of your talent, master chanter,
Who could fill the dance floor and keep it rockin',
Embarrass us, you were such a 'shocker'.
But it was done all in happy jest,
You'de put us revelers to the test,
the spotlight would go round and round,
Then stop and we would cringe..worried what you'd say,
Bow our heads and turn away,
But you would always 'get' us you little Devil,
And we would look for a hole in the ground,
To hide in till you'd moved on to someone else
and we'd sigh with relief, the moment gone,
then we would dance and carry on,
ever the showman...Always our Friend.
Dawn & Tony Bycraft.xxxx

Found you at last.....

Ben, Tony & I still can't believe you are not here with us in the flesh no more, but we know you are with us in spirit, ever the shining star you were.
I knew you long before you married & had children, ( I used to babysit for you when you lived in March, Cambs.) & Tony came to know you when we met & I introduced him to you at the B&D (GOOD OLD DAYS) We only saw you 2 weeks before your illness & wondered why you had failed to show up to our Dear Friend (your rival DJ & friend Bugie..'s funeral and were shocked to find out you had had a heart attack & were in hospital & even more shocked to find you had crossed over before we could get to visit you & eat the grapes we would have brought you!!!!!Seriously Ben, you had only just been to my Mum's funeral & my Son David's a couple of years before. We miss you so much and still have the cd you made for us a few weeks before you 'left' us, memories of the Bull & Dolphine shuffle, & band of gold (to name a couple of tracks,) We will always treasure it. Tony still goes to your old flat & sits in the car park thinking of you & the good times you had together when you took him with you on your disco circuite (embarrassing him when you put the spotlight on him & we won't mention the rest) GOOD JOB I COULD TRUST THE PAIR OF YOU!!!!!!!!haha!) Anyway my Darling, rest assured your memory will live on & we will not forget you...how could we when you have left such a great gap in our lives. Hope you have met up with Bugie & my David & Mum. Till we meet again keep the heavens rocking, play it again Ben!!!!!!Love & miss you always...Dawn & Tony Bycraft.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
