Karen Jane michelle Hadaway

Karen Jane Michelle Hadaway, died on the 9th of October 1986.
She was taken away from us at just nine years old "MURDERED".
She lived on the moulscoombe estate in Brighton with her parents, including her older brother Darren and younger sister Lyndsey.
She was my first daughter, and came into the world on the 21st December 1976, weighing 4lb 2ounces.
She was a lovely contented baby, always happy and smiling, she was no trouble at all.
Being my first daughter, I was over the moon.
Everyone commented on her beauty, although she was tiny she walked and talked at an early age.
She was always interested in what was going on around her, and she always asked lots of questions and came out with funny things, she was so comical.
Her little face when i used to ask her how much she loved me, she would open her arms really wide and say "i love u this much mummy".
Karen was my pride and joy and my love for her was unconditional. There's never been a day gone by when she's left my heart, and she never will.
My beautiful daughter Kas.

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL MY GTS FRIENDS FOR THE CANDLES, PICS AND TRIBUTES YOU PUT ON MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER KAS'S SITE. IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME AND MY FAMILY MORE THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES RECENTLY THAT I HAVENT BEEN ON MUCH TO LIGHT CANDLES FOR YOUR ANGELS BUT I WANT TO ASSURE YOU ALL THAT THEY ARE ALWAYS IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS,
ALSO IF U CAN SPARE A FEW MINUTES TO LIGHT A CANDLE FOR MY HUSBAND LEE HADAWAY, MY MUM MAISIE JOHNSON AND KAS'S LITTLE FRIEND NICOLA FELLOWS WHO ALL HAVE A SITE ON HERE AS WELL.


MY CHILD KAREN.

On the day god took you
I thought that i would die
I wondered where the time went
I asked alot of whys ???
With people all around me
I felt alone inside
From all their words of comfort
I couldn't seem to hide
I thought I might be dreaming
that i'd wake and find you here
I thought "this cant be happening"
As I wiped another tear.

On the day that you were laid to rest
My heart broke yet again
I wondered if the pain would end
but mostly i wondered when ?
It's hard to be without you Kas
At times the days seem long
Sometimes I just sit crying
When there's really nothing wrong
I wish we'd had more time Kas
Before your life was done
I hope your resting peacefully
My Kas my precious one.

KAS.

I asked god for a flower
he gave me a bouquet,
I asked god for a minute
he gave me a day,
I asked god for true love
he gave me that too, I asked god for an angel
and he gave me you.

~~~~~~

So these seven words
I pray and hold true
forever and always
I will love you ! ! !

WE MAY MEASURE OUR ROAD TO WISDOM
BY THE SORROWS WE HAVE UNDERGONE ! ! !

OUR SISTER KAREN.


Our sister Karen was a very beautiful child, she meant the world to all her family and friends.
All our hearts broke the day Karen and our friend Nicola was taken from us "MURDERED" by an evil monster.
He was later found not guilty of killing not just one child but two children, "lack of evidence they called it" but we all know in our hearts and souls they died at that monsters hands.
That was 21 years ago now, and still no justice for our innocent angels. They will never be at rest just like us, untill this poor excuse of a man is brought to justice.
We will never give up the fight untill this monster is punished for his Crimes.
I couldn't stand the thought of ever breathing the same air as that monster if he was released from prison, it makes me feel sick to my stomach.
I feel that the verdict the jury gave of Not Guilty was totally wrong, because he has been locked up now for 17 yrs, for trying to take the life of another innocent child, after being found not guilty of killing Karen and Nikki, but thank god she survived his evil attack, to identify him as the evil monster who tried to take her life.
Her evidence later got him convicted for his sick crime.
If he had been put away the first time, that poor child would not of had to go through what she did but that's "BRITISH JUSTICE" for you.
My dad heard about the death of his daughter over the radio, as he was in Manchester at the time, what a shock to his system.
The next day he had to go and identify his daughter, at the mortuary.
He went in there the man we loved and knew, and came out a stranger.
He was never the same again.
My dad died 9 years ago he was a broken man with a broken heart.
My poor mum who was 7 months pregnant at the time, was in the park when the girls were found dead, she was brought home and had to be heavily sedated.
Our families world fell apart that day, never to be the same again.
I miss u both so very much and always will, untill i take my last breath. The thing that keeps me strong, is knowing we will see each other again one day, untill then my angels sleep tight with dad (Lee) and nanny Maisie.
Remembering u always, forgetting u never.
With luv from your sisters and brothers
Lyndsey, Kimberley, Darren & Rikki.
God Bless.xxxx
