How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

Policeman with a sense of humour

God bless you Neil thanks for the help you gave me and support when I needed it most. You saw the funny side of it, when I did not. I am pleased to have known you for that brief moment. It was a great shock when I found out it was you in accident. Your wife and family should be proud of a man who went beyound the call of duty. A man with a high professional standard you could only respect.

The police force lost one outstanding policeman a credit to his profession.

God Bless you Neil and your family x x x

I didnt know you, but i would just like to leave my condolences for your family and to say that the way you went was horrible, no-one deserved it. me and my boyfriend adrian almost went the same way as we were in the same accident, we were in the car that was hit by the eddie sobart truck and we were lucky enough to survive it, we dont know how all we wish is that you could of survived aswell.
we just feel like we shouldnt of been so lucky that night.
i set you the group on facebook for people to remember you and its proven that lots of people do, you seem like you were a great man.
my thoughts go out for you and your family
