This is a tribute to my dear son James Ian Ramage(wee ramage)to his friends.James was tragically taken from us on 30th May 2006 in a car accident.He was a very loving and caring son that made me proud every day of his very short 23 years.He was a very intellegent young man,he attended Dalmilling primary and then Mainholm Academy in Ayr.He then attended Ayr College studying mechanical and electrical engineering where he gained his HND.He then worked for a local firm in Ayr (Newton Security Doors).His passions in life were his girlfriend Morgan,his family,his friends and his cars.He was always so full of life and eager to help any of his friends when they needed him,even if it was just to lend an ear or give some advice he was always there.I know,as has been proved over the past year many of his friends will stay loyal to James,still paying us a visit or phoning or texting us just to see how we are which is very comforting to us.James will always be remembered for the love of his precious vw polo(his baby)which in time we will be restoring for him in his memory.

As a baby he was so tiny and cute,and always so quiet and good,
As a boy he was full of fun,always laughing and joking around,
As a teenager he was always respectful,never in trouble
And as a young man he grew to be the son we were so proud of.

we will love and miss you every minute of every day james,you touched so many peoples hearts in a way that so few do.

love you always son,forever and a day wee man

MUM,DAD,AINSLEY,NIKKI,AND YOUR WEE DARLIN MORGAN XXXXX


For all the mums out their so lost without their child,here is a poem that has given me a little strength,hope you like it.

Mum,please don't feel guilty
it was just my time to go,
I see you are still feeling sad
and the tears just seam to flow.

We all come to earth for our lifetime,
and for some it's not many years.
I don't want you to keep crying
You are shedding so many tears.

I haven't really left you
even though it may seem so.
I have just gone to my heavenly home
And I'm so much closer than you know.

Just beleive that when you say my name
I'm standing right next to you,
I know you long to see me
but there is nothing I can do.

But I'll still send you messages
and hope you understand,
That when your time comes to "cross over"
I'll be there to take your hand.

I hope someone else can take comfort from this poem

another favourite poem is the one that was said at James's service which is called "when tomorrow starts without me".

When tomorrow starts without me,and I'm not there to see.
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,all filled with tears for me.

I wish so much you wouldn't cry,the way you did today.
Whilst thinking of the many things,we will never get to say.

I know how much you love me,as much as I love you.
And each time that you think of me,I know you'll miss me too.

So when tomorrow starts without me,please try to understand.
That an angel came and called my name,and took me by the hand.

And said my place was ready,in heaven far above.
And that I'd have to leave behind,all those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,a tear fell from my eye.
For all my life I'd always thought,I didn't want to die.

I had so much to live for,so much yet to do.
It seemed almost impossible,that I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays,the good ones and the bad.
I thought of all the love we shared,and all the fun we had.

If I could re-live yesterday,just even for a while.
I'd say goodbye and kiss you,and maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realised,that this could never be.
For emptiness and memories,would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,I might miss come tomorrow. I thought of you and when I did,my heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through heavens gate,I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,from his great golden throne.

He said "this is eternity and all I promised you".
Today your life on earth is passed,but here it starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow,for today will always last.
And since each day is the same,there's no longing for the past.

But you have been so faithful,so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,you knew you shouldn't do.

But you have been forgiven,and now at last your'e free.
So wont you take my hand,and share my life with me.

So when tomorrow starts without me,don't think we are far apart.
For everytime you think of me,I'm right there in your heart.
