Stubbylee Park in Bacup, Rossendale in Lancashire. As a result of her severe head injuries she went

My Dear Family xx
It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...

***********

I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...

***********

I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrops
I so wish I could erase...

***********

I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...

***********

I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...

***********

You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...

**********

I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...

Screams Of Cold Winter - Finding Her Wings

The band Screams Of Cold Winter have a song called "Finding Her Wings" written in memory of Sophie which should be played in the prison which is now home to Sophie's murderers.
Here are the lyrics;

...........................................

No more looking back

No getting away
You’ve chosen your track now
and you can’t stray
There will be no forgetting

Of every blow you made
you can’t take them back now
it’s far too late

Her light in your hands

Did you see them in the distance
Want to make them feel small?
So that you could feel bigger
So that you could walk tall?.

You unleashed upon a woman
her difference in mind
her life can never be retraced
you crossed out all the lines

Lost in one heated moment
So inhumane
She’s finding her wings
They’re burning red
We will remember
they will know her name
She’s finding her wings
They’re burning red

Picking up what’s left behind
What has gone astray
Did you think you could deny it
and that you would get away?

You can say that you’re not guilty
But the truth remains the same
You can point the finger
But there’s only you to blame

Her light on your hands

Just what did you want my friend?
What did you have in mind?
To take away their baby
And then leave it all behind?

No amount of prison time
Ever can replace
Her beauty and her power
Or the memory of her face
Chorus....
Guilty, Guilty....
In your final thoughts I hope you see her face
And know what you’ve done will never be erased

Chorus

Goth of Beauty

A black ribbon hangs by my window along with your name
Tears we all cry for A dark angel with a Heart
I'm sending my love all the way to you by Angel mail

A black wristband I have around my wrist and a shirt I wear so proud, proud to be an individual because you have given me the strength to be myself

You will always be young and beautiful in the arms of God you will always be so smart and a inspiration

Hugs from Heaven

When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.

If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.

If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.

If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.

If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.

So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

Remembering you each and every day Sophie all our love Sharon and Charlotte xxxxxxxxxxxxx

♥ღ♥ My eyes have seen the yellow sand,
my ears have heard their cries.
And I have watched a million hands
reach out to wave good-bye.
I've said good-bye so many times.
I've walked the earth alone,
and I have lived a million lives
just searching for my home.

I'll climb the highest mountain peaks,
I'll ford the deepest streams.
I'll touch you with my memories
and hold you with my dreams.
For love's the greatest miracle
our eyes will ever see.
I'm still alive! I will survive ♥ღ♥ xxx
