Kayleigh Macilwraith-Christie known to many as Kayleigh Christie was born on November 24th 1990 at
Whittington Hospital. She had two brothers, Steven and Paul from her mum Jean Murphy. She also had a
brother Kyle and a sister Tara from her dad.
She was a happy baby and as she grew into a toddler she was always laughing and singing.
She attended Goodinge Nursery and then went to Robert Blair Primary School. She was known by
teacher's and helpers as being happy and bubbly.
She started to go to Lumpy Hill Adventure Playground at the age of 5 and loved the freedom of the
outdoors.
She also used to go to the Drovers Day Centre where her mum was a volunteer. Kayleigh used to enjoy
listening to the old people's stories and watching them line-dancing. The old people used to
look forward to her visiting and were always asking Jean to bring her over.
BECOMING AN AUNTIE
Kayleigh first became an auntie in 1999, she was 9 years of age. Her brother Paul and his partner
Laura had a baby named Ellie. Kayleigh was over the moon and enjoyed being an auntie.
STORMONT HOUSE SCHOOL.
Kayleigh attended Stormont House at the age of 11. Kayleigh suffered from epilepsy. Her mum decided
to send her there because of her illness. Jean felt safer because Kayleigh got picked up and dropped
to school and brought back home. There were also qualified first aiders there. Whilst attending
school Kayleigh received loads of awards and certificates. In October 2003.
Kayleigh received the Jack Petchey Achievement Award.
She was well liked by both staff and pupils. Kayleigh could not tolerate
bullying and helped to stamp it out at both school and Lumpy Hill Adventure
Playground. She also didn't like to see anyone left out.
LUMPY HILL ADVENTURE PLAYGROUND.
Kayleigh started attending Lumpy at the age of 5 and loved being over there. She loved playing with
the other children who lived on the nearby Market Estate. There was always things going on such as
making open fires, arts & crafts, pottery and candle-making, baking & cooking and playing on
the structures.
As Kayleigh got older, she became a Youth Mentor, which meant that she would work alongside the
Playworker's. She set up activities and liked to do arts & crafts with the children and
also shadowed the new attenders (5 year old). Kayleigh was also a qualified first aider.
Kayleigh became the Piped Piper of Lumpy Hill, with children following her about and hanging off
her. She was an expert at pushing the children on the round the world swing.
Kayleigh wasn't your typical teenager, she wasn't out drinking and smoking and hanging out
on the street. She was considerate, caring, helpful, happy-go-lucky.
A example of this was when a new family arrived in the area, a single parent with 8 children.
Kayleigh introduced herself and welcomed the family to the area, she invited them over to Lumpy Hill
and took them under her wing. Somewhere where the children could go and play safely.
BECOMING AN AUNTIE FOR THE SECOND TIME.
Kayleigh became an auntie for the second time in 2002. She was 12 years of age. Her brother Paul and
his partner Laura had another daughter named Amie. Kayleigh was proud of her two nieces.
LUMPY HILL'S TALENT COMPETITION.
Kayleigh was one of many who entered the X Factor Talent Competition at Lumpy. She loved to sing,
from a very young age. She loved to sing Celine Dion "My heart will go on" (Love theme
from Titanic) and Whitney Houston "I will always love you". Which she sang perfectly.
Kayleigh sang "I will always love you" solo.
Kayleigh won the competition hands down, it was an unanimous decision by all three judges.
ACHIEVEMENTS IN KAYLEIGH'S LAST WEEK.
Kayleigh had a lot of achievements in the last week of her life.
Tue 11th July 06: A launch event on Market Estate, Kayleigh's art work was put up on hoardings
in Market Estate alongside ten other young people.
Wed 12th July 06:Kayleigh was the only one in her school to receive The Award for Outstanding
Achievement in school. She was nominated by her teachers.
Kayleigh attended a consultation with a group of young people to discuss what
they wanted to do in youth club.
Fri 14th July 06: Kayleigh had an excellent report from school. Which she was very proud of.
Sadly Kayleigh passed away at 8.30pm the night of the 14th July 2006.
FOR MY DAUGHTER
Daughters hold a special bond
That nothing can replace
Their smiles can chase the blues away
And brighten up a face.
Joys we’ve known, a special day
Shared between us two
Secret talks and peaceful walks
Just to name a few.
Times of reminiscing
The day you learned to crawl
Looking through the photos
I’ve always kept them all.
Thoughts of her are everywhere
I cannot let her go
But somewhere up in heaven
A star does softly glow.
She sees a Joy unknown to me
Her face is full of Light
They walk into the Promised Land
God holds her hand so tight.
Just as the shifting sands of time
Flows gently out to sea
Here today and gone tomorrow
My child has been set free.

In Memory of You
I find an old photograph
and see your smile.
As I feel your presence anew,
I am filled with warmth
and my heart remembers love.
I read an old card
sent many years ago
during a time of turmoil and confusion.
The soothing words written then
still caress my spirit
and bring me peace.
I remember who you used to be
the laughter we shared
and wonder what you have become.
Where are you now,
Where did you go,
When the body is left behind
and the spirit is released to fly?
Perhaps you are the morning bird
singing joyfully at sunrise,
or the butterfly that dances
so carelessly on the breeze
or the rainbow of colors
that brightens a stormy sky
or the fingers of afternoon mist
delicately reaching over the mountains
or the final few rays of the setting sun
lighting up the skies
edging the clouds with a magical glow.
I miss your being
but I feel your presence,
In whatever form you choose to take,
however you now choose to be.
Your spirit has become for me
a guardian angel on high
guiding, advising, and watching over me.
I remember you.
You are with me
and I am not afraid.

Beautiful Angel ჱܓ
Our beautiful angel in the sky
Please ask god why o why
You left our side to fly away
To the deep blue sky so far away
We want to hug you and give you a kiss
But all we can do is write like this
Our beautiful angel in the sky
Why o why did you leave our side
To fly to that place in the deep blue sky
Why were we left here to cry
We try so hard to be brave
The pain in our heart is so hard to bear
Our beautiful angel in the sky
we have to say night night now
It’s time for us to go
But this feeling in our heart
Will never ever let you go xXx

Tribute For This Weekend
♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥
Hug Is The Perfect Drug
No moving parts, no batteries.
No monthly payments and no fees;
Inflation proof, non-taxable,
In fact, it’s quite relaxable;
It can’t be stolen, won’t pollute,
One size fits all, do not dilute.
It uses little energy,
But yields results enormously.
Relieves your tension and your stress,
Invigorate your happiness;
Combats depression, makes you beam,
And elevates your self esteem!
Your circulation it corrects
Without unpleasant side effects
It is, I think, the perfect drug:
May I prescribe, my friend… the hug!
And, of course, fully returnable!
♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥
I’m sorry you are hurting
But there’s nothing I can do
I’m watching you from up above
I wish you weren’t so blue
If there was anything
That I could do or say
I take away your pain
I’d make it go away
I know you cannot see me
But please be rest assured
I’m by your side every day
And I can hear what you say
I love you too and miss you more
But please do not be sad
I want to see you smile again
I don’t want you to feel bad
You see I know something now
I did not know before
I’m in a place where we will meet
And be together for ever more
♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥♫CA♥
♥ A SHINING STAR ♥
When I had to leave you
I didn't go too far
Look up to the Heavens
I’m a Brilliant shining star
May this light show you
As it glistens from above
A very special thank~you
When you lifted me with love
A little star that brightly shines
A star that’s free from pain
Held gently in God's loving arms
Until we meet again
As you go on your journey
Be the best that you can be
And know that God is there for you
As he is here for me
When we miss each other
And what each other near
You shine your light upon the earth
And I'll shine my light up here
So we will always remember
When we seem so far apart
To shine our lights together
With love upon our hearts

If Heaven Had A Phone
I cannot dial your number,
I can't get through to you,
I called the operator,
She did all that she could do.
There is no code for heaven,
I cannot place the call,
No numbers left to call,
I reckon I've tried them all.
If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
There's things I want to say.
To tell you that I love you,
And miss you every day,
How much I prayed to god,
That he could let you stay.
If heaven had a phone,
I'd ring you every day,
If heaven had a phone,
I'd hear your voice, know you're okay,
I just want to speak to heaven,
Please do you have a direct line,
Operator says no number,
But your loved one says they're doing fine.

SWEET DREAMS
Sweet dreams are all I have of you, they're all you left behind.
Those cherished lovely memories, never again to find.
On earth you were so wonderful, no child could I compare
To all the love you gave to me, you were so meek, so rare.
Sweet dreams they keep me going through the long and lonely night,
How I wish that I could hug you here and squeeze you oh so tight.
If I could walk to Heaven dear, to see you every day,
Just know I'd never want to leave, I know I'd long to stay.
We parted here on earth my child, but God's will shall be done,
Then dreams will be reality for once more we'll be one.
I love you for eternity, forever and some more,
Because you were the sweetest child, the kindest and most pure.
If Heaven's full of Angels, like you were here on earth,
I thank the Lord for lending you, for giving me your birth,
One day my child I'll see you there, so please look out for me,
You'll see my smile so wide before you see my spirit free.
God takes the sweetest Angels first, this we know is true,
For He came here and looked around, my darling, He chose you!
FOR A BEAUTIFUL ANGEL IN HEAVEN
Home is not a place on earth,
Of wood or brick or stone;
For I've gone on to better things,
Now Heaven is my home.
Don't listen for my footsteps,
To fall across your floor;
Don't grieve for me forever,
Or wait to see me at your door.
Take comfort in my memory,
And you'll never be alone;
For I am so much richer,
Now that Heaven is my home.
Don't listen now to hear my voice,
Or look here for my face;
For I have a home of perfect peace,
And I'm now there in that place.
As long as you remember me,
You'll never be alone;
I will be here waiting for you,
Now Heaven is my home.
