Andrew Ryan Brown

7th April 1981 - 11th August 2003

Hello to all,
Once again time seems to slip away and the months just go. We did scatter mum and dad's ashes in Browndog Bay early on the morning of Mother's day with just Kenn, Kris and I there. The months since have been hard in lots of ways. Like loosing Andrew, it is the little things that just pop up out of the blue that shatter you. We marked the anniversay of his death quietly with just time spent sitting on the beach and thinking of him.

Kenn continues to see dolphins there. His most recent time was when he watching some young surfers and saying to himself; "I hope I was a good dad to you Andrew.' The next minute four dolphins came leaping in on the waves. As you can imagine, despite the tears he found it comforting.

Andrew's friends continue to make contact and that is wonderful. We are even into 'facebook' and that is involving us more in what has happened to them. Kris is working full time at a laundry and making an independent life for himself. He has his friends and goes out most weekends with them. Kenn and he are involved in Sea Rescue and Kenn has began a Special Olympics group here in Port Macquarie so that is keeping them busy too. We are both working full time and look like conintuing in 2008.

Our best wishes to all who read this and hopefully those who need comfort will find it somewhere in my ramblings. Our wonderful son remains in our hearts and we think of him every day in some way.
