Thinking of you always..............-......... / Harriet-Anne Millington-Davey (Great Friend )
Sitting here Lauren, thinking of you, we had some great times together which I will never forget. I miss you so much and one day we will be back together, which I’m looking forward too. Love you always flossy xxx
Its funny how i think of a million things i want to tell you but when it comes down to it i dont know what to say? Time is going by and missing you is still not getting any easier. Theres so much going on in my life right now but now matter how bad things are they never compare to the feelings i had when i lost you. I miss your smile and all our laughter, it breaks my heart to think of all the things i do without you. When we all go out and were getting ready i always feel sad because you should be getting ready with me. I should be doing your hair for you and putting make-up on, Oh and you would be panicking because you have nothing to wear so you nick my clothes like you always used to :-) I still have the stuff you used to borrow from me i keep it safe because it reminds me of you. All the things that remind me of you are in a special box, all my letters from you, birthday cards and photos. The box has a pair of angel wings in them because your my angel. I think of how unfair it is that your missing out on growing up properly. I sit at home on my own looking at your picture crying my eyes out but i bet your looking at me laughing :-) then i imagine that laugh and it makes me stop crying. If i could have one wish for anything then it would be to bring you back to all of us and make us happy again. There are a lot of sadness around and a lot of people miss you because your such a special girl. Im so happy your my best friend i couldnt have asked for anyone better. There will never be anyone like you. Youre one in a billion flossy.
I love you and i miss you more than words can describe. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Best Friends Forever xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Little Lauren / Angela Myles (Auntie)
Little Lauren, I still think of you every day and miss the funny things you said. you had a wonderful way of making someone feel good about themself,as if you sensed what they were thinking.I'll always re- member when I was heavily pregnant with Asa and the size of an elephant you told me how pretty I looked! I felt really good about myself that day after you said that!when you were cross about something you'd say something and it would make us l laugh, not in a mocking way but you just had a really funny way of saying things,I really don't think you knew just how funny you were and how you cheered people up. You'd walk into a room and everyones face would light up because that's the effect you had on people!And your lovely face,you walked along and people would turn to look at you! I'll always miss you Lauren,you were taken too soon! Love you forever Auntie Angela xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Close
I dreamed i had an intrview with GOD. "so you would like to interview me?" GOD asked. "if you have the time" i said. GOD smiled. "my time is eternity". "what questions do you have in mind for me?" "what suprises you most about mankind?" i said. GOD answered....... "that they get bored with childhood, they rush to grow up, and then long to be children again," "that they lose their health to make money...and then lose their money to restore their health." "that by thinking anxiously about the future they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future." "that they live as if they will never die, and die as if they have never lived." GOD'S hand took mine and we were silent for a while. and then i asked...... "as a parent, what are some of lifes lessons you want your children to learn?" "to learn they cannot make anyone love them. all they can do is let themselves be loved." "to learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others." "to learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness." "to learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them." "to learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least." "to learn that there are persons who love them dearly, but simply have not yet learned how to express or show their feelings." "to learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently." "to learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves." "thankyou for your time," i said humbly. "is there anything else you would like your children to know?" GOD smiled and said, "just know that i am here......always." A wonderful website and a testament to the love that many people have for you lauren.

The bubbliest girl I know / Marvee Foster (School friend )
Lauren, I didn't spend much time with you in your last year as we parted ways when we left school but I remember the times we spent together like it was yesterday.
Us fighting to get to the back seats in Science so we could get away with doing as little work as possible!! We'd chat, laugh, giggle, write silly notes to each other, draw silly pictures of our science teacher and lean back on our chairs knowing that one of us would fall off at some point. And we did...
My fondest memory of you is auditioning for the talent show, we sang "The Boy Is Mine" by Brandy & Monica. I remember everyone crowding round the side of the auditorium and how everyone was so impressed by your singing.
Lauren, you truly are unlike anyone I have ever met before and I will always remember that smile of yours. I have read how everyone has talked about your smile but it truly was one that could have lifted anyones spirit.
Angel of our Hearts / Naomi Barker (Friend)

Its strange, ive sat there many many times, and thought to myself if i could speak to you or i could write you a letter, just any contact, then there is so much i have to say. And now im lost for words!! I met you on my first day at middle school, me, you, debbie, michelle and emma. I remember we were all sat on the same table just starring at one another cause it was our first day in this big school and we didnt know what to do! It wasnt long after all of us were chatting away and thats how it always was. From that day on you and me were best friends, and you were THE best friend anyone could ask for. We had so much fun all of us at school, they were the best times of my life and i was lucky enough to spend it with you. the lovely thing is, all the memories I have of you are all happy, there isnt one bad thing. We then left middle school 4 years later, we carried on hanging around even though we went to different upper schools, you me and selene. Once again the 3 of us had so much fun together, you were always the one making us laugh, you were always so hyper and full of fun! by the time the 9th year had finished we had stopped seeing each other, it wasnt untill i left school and went to college we both found out we were doing courses in the same block. i couldnt believe it, i was so happy i got to see you again occasionally and again with your new friends i could see you were still as funny and loving as you were at school! Many months later, i got on the bus to town and heard 'Annabelle, Annabelle' It was you at the back of the bus, i came and sat next to you and we were chattin away as it has always been. You noticed i had my tongue pierced and you were like i really want it done, asking me all about it. That was the last time i saw you! I will never ever forget you, and look forward to seeing you one day and you can carry on making me laugh and smile. love you always, sleep well Annie bfs4eva xxxxxxxxxx

We all miss you very much Lauren, you'll always be remembered because you touched so many hearts, a beautiful website and a fitting tribute and testimony to how much Lauren was adored . Close
Lauren, reading about you today has bought a smile to my face, and tears to my eyes. Every word written and every photo shows the beautiful happy girl you were. Your life was filled with love , the love you received from those around you and the love that you gave to all that entered your life. You were unique. No one else has the unique qualities that you possessed, those qualities all in different measures which gave you your uniqueness. Lauren you are irreplaceable.
Bridget, thank you for sharing your beautiful Lauren with all of us who visit this lovely tribute to her. I am pleased that you have managed to reach another milestone on this never-ending journey through grief. Lauren would wish her life to be a cherished memory, not one that fills you with sorrow, and in time I'm sure that this site will be a source of comfort to you.
Our precious children Lauren and Nick, although they didn't know each other here, are two of a kind. I am sure that they are together in a better place.
A glimmer of hope is that one day we will be together again, and until that day we must be thankful that they lived.

Still today i sit here writing this still waiting for a call from you, you know me flossy i'll never let you go, it might seem i don't see come to see you often, that’s because it upsets me to much. I Still remember of holiday and that little saying we had, you could never stop laughing and made me say it over and over again, its hard now as i have no one to say it too, as its not funny to anyone else, 'one of then sayings you had to e there’...... Remember the rides and all the fun we had together, you and your daddy me and your mummy, which she was told off for.....pulling her onto the huge rollercoaster and went mad when she couldn’t go though with it, we must had gone on that ride 50 times or more and both still screamed all the way down and the stories of what happened on that ride we said we couldn’t tell anyone and still to this day the stories we promised each other were a secret still are….. That was the most fun packed holiday….I’m sure your mummy and daddy will say the same, like all the alcohol we brought and put in the bathroom to keep cool, lucky they took that away…. You just were keeping them on their toes as you would say….i remember the meals, drinks and mostly the laughing on that holiday, and I’m so happy we went, we never made our skiing trip together but ill make a snowman for you…… The brilliant day in the water park as well, with the massive waves and you grabbed that poor old women by the neck thinking it was me, making her bikini top come loose I couldn’t stop laughing, you couldn’t either……they are the times I miss with you, the photos are excellent of the holiday and still I look and laugh……….. My little star, you were the bestest friend I could of asked for and the years we spend as friends will always have a special place in my heart. The different things we got up to the long phone chats we had for hours on a Sunday, starting with ‘ello Mat-ee like the Motorola advert on the TV. It’s hard with al the jokes and comments we had together which I will never share with anyone again. I miss you more and more each day, and your always in my thoughts, I got your little yellow star for you when your ashes were laid to rest in march 2005 I feel it leads me the right way,
xXx My Bestest Friend xXx / Emma Potten (Best Friend )
One of my first days at middle school was nerve racking being at a new school with new people can be scary for a 10 year old. i can remember seeing all new faces as we were introduced to all our new class mates. There was one little face the stood out from the rest with big blue eyes,lovely strawberry blonde hair and a beautiful smile. That was the moment i would go on to have this amazing wondeful friend known as Lauren Elisabeth Eley in my life. We had ups and downs like normal teenage girls but i have lost count of how many times my sides were splitting from the laughter and fun we shared together.
Lauren wasnt your average girl. She didnt take life seriously, she believed in having fun no matter what the circumstances or situation. Where ever she would go she would light up the room like a million stars. Her passion was music and singing and anyone that knows Lauren knew of her dream to go on Stars In Your Eyes and become Christina Aguilera and sing her heart out. If she wasnt busy singing away she would be talking about her love for little children. Unlike most young girls she didnt just want to work with children she wanted to go that loving extra mile and care for special needs children. Lauren was a home girl and loved her two pussy cats pepsi and max. When she would stroke them she would have to bit her tongue so she wasnt rough with them (one of theres moments when you had to be there kinda thing) which would always make me laugh!! But thats all Lauren ever did was make me smile. Even in the worst times in my life i would get a phone call or a text and meet Lauren at whats known as "Aj's Bench" near where we both live. In the summertime we would sit for hours chatting away comforting eachother when we needed comforting and if we wasnt upset we'd be laughing away.
She was always welcome round to my house and my mum says she will always remember letting Lauren into my house and her little voice calling my name if i was upstairs. We'd spend hours in my room listening to music even though the music we listened to were rivals. Lauren loved Christina and I was a Britney fan so we would laugh and joke about that! She was forever asking me to straighten her hair or borrow my clothes, but i never minded she was like my sister in that way.
I could sit here for hours explaining my memories but by far my favourite one has to be on my 18th birthday. Lauren rushed round and as usual asked to have her hair done and borrowed half my wardrobe but i didnt mind as she gave me a lovely thoughtful birthday present which to this day sits on a shelf with her picture and a pink fluffy candle. It was a mirror with a friendship poem on it. Thoughtful just like Lauren. The limo pulled up and we all got in. Lauren was absolutley loving it!! singing at the top of her voice shouting out the windows as if she really was famous. I'll never forget her telling me thankyou for letting me do this with you i'm definitley going to do this on my 18th birthday.
But that was never meant to be. The day i found out Lauren was gone was a blur i did not believe it and thought it was a cruel joke so i rang Laurens house phone and thats when i heard the answering phone message. How could such a young persons life end in this way. So many emotions ran through my mind, shock,sadness,anger,guilty my whole world ended. Still to this day i cant describe the emotion i feel when i think of her gone. I expect to see her smiling face pop out at me and tell me it was a joke! Theres not a single day I dont think about Lauren and i never will till the day I die. I miss and love her with all my heart and i will never meet such a wonderful amazing funny caring lovable person. Despite life being so cruel and taking Lauren away from us so early to keep her memory alive and to not let the darkness of what happened overshadow us there is now a centre for children whch helps them express their grief throught music and art.
I know Lauren is so proud and will be looking down on those little children. Iv never met such strong and determined people like Bridget and Ron, Laurens parents who refuse to let Laurens death be in vain and they have worked so hard to get where they have today especially after losing the youngest daughter who Lauren loved from the bottom of her heart as well as her brother and sister. Iv heard some funny typical brother/sister arguments that Lauren has had with them but they all love eachother deep down and never meant it.
If it wasnt for Laurens family i dont know how i would be coping as well as i am because i feel i have to be strong for them and try and look after them best i can as this is what Lauren would want.
I'll remember Lauren for the rest of my life until the day when i will meet my angel in heaven and the smiles and laughter can carry on.
Best Friends Forever Lauren Always Sleep tight and keep watching over me as im sure you are Emma xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Close
