Happy Heavenly Birthday Phillipe, I think of you often, and wonder how life is upstairs.

Hey Bunny,
Wow 20 years old. Gee time goes fast.
I still think of you often, especially when I´m feeling a bit sad. Your photo up on the fridge reminds me of you and when I read (The Dash), how precious life´s journey is and never to forget that.
The photo on my table of us, taken at your Year 6 Prize Giving, helps me remember the great learning times we had at Sockburn Primary.
Gee Bunny we had some great conversations and learning sessions didn´t we. I hope you still remember me and enjoyed our times together as much as I did.
Hope we can meet again some day.
Ride free and safe
Love Snookie.

Love you Phillipè, happy 20th, was thinking of you yesterday, hard to believe my wee man would be 20! Thanks for all the amazing years together, eating the stalk of the brocli, for cleaning my car, for all the sleepovers so many amazing memories, love you for ever Philly, ride high buddy rest in paradise love aunty jaz xoxo

Hey young man dude happy 20th birthday my thoughts are solely of you today enjoy the day the best you can miss you heaps son love your proud dad

hello dude been a while since we spoke i hope your bike is going well ?Back into the firewood season again and have been thinking alot about the good old days when we did everything together .I really miss that son more than you'll ever no .Maybe after this season ill have to take a step back as its getting harder for me to hang on to the saw now and i know if you were still here i wouldn't be using the big saw anyway .This year you will be 20 years of age and I'm very proud of what you had accomplished in life and where you were heading .Nobody in the world could ever replace you phill i really mean that .stay safe ride well love dad

Hey mate
We went to the beach on your day. You'd have loved it. Once you got in the water there was no getting you out, ouchy skin or not! We didn't take the diggers and trucks though, you'd have had the girls doing all sorts with those. It's a different life with girls, much less of the rough and tumble from the days of you and Lukie goofing around. Anyway summer was your special time, the time you were born, the time you were taken and the time you loved the most. I hope you're enjoying it out there. We all love and miss you heaps
Aunty Kourtney

Wasting time,

Packed up camp today and thought of you. Tears fell on the tent pegs as I pulled them out. I miss you ever so much
Until we meet

Hey Bunny,
Wow the years have gone fast. I can’t believe your 19! What a wonderful young man you’ve become. I can just see you hands on caretaker at Wigram Primary School (formerly Sockburn) using all the great skills Mr Rob (caretaker) taught you. What a wonderful roll model for all those students you would be passing your gardening skills onto.
I’m retired now Bunny. Did 34 1/2 years as a teacher aide. I wish you could have come to my farewell assembly. I would have had you sitting beside me on stage. You were the best student I ever worked with Bunny and I will never forget you and all the good times we shared at Sockburn.
Enjoy your rides and stay safe.
Love Snookie xx

Happy birthday dude 19 years of age today wow time is flying bye .there's not a day goes bye that i don't miss you my best mate .No doubt your working now i wonder what your doing ??driving trucks maybe ??Well maybe you took the day off to go for a ride to remember the good old days ??love you mate miss you very much your dad

If i could play one last song...

ACDC Thunderstruck
Loud with the drums ripping out full noise

In the back seat, at a hick town garage heading south
Until then moi mai ra moi mai ra te tame

Hey mate. Gosh we've had some amazing weather for Christmas. Ideal tenting and barbecuing weather, right up your alley. You'd be out there at 5am and never inside again on a day like this. I'm putting our pool up today for Lukie and my other 3 boys, I can still picture you and Lukie splashing and having a blast together as little kids. I bet you'd still dive in with him today and wrestle over the float rings, probably with a beer to the side on the picnic table hehe

The girls especially struggle understanding there was no goodbye. I hope in time that pain will ease

Hey Phil, I'm about to turn 18. About time to become an adult. As I move on to this new chapter in my life, I can't help but reflect on moments that have since come and gone and to be grateful for all of them. I think about you, buddy. I know you're still shining as bright as always, riding motorbikes across the clouds. Keep on having fun :)

Hi Bunnie
I often think of you over the years and wonder what you would be doing if you where here with us today! I still have our photo on display in my kitchen and 'The Dash' is still on my fridge. I read it every now and then just to remind me how precious life is and to enjoy each day that I have.
I will never forget you and the amazing times I had working with you at Sockburn School, miss you Bunnie. Love Snookie xxooxx

There's been a few attempts tonight to think of something to write on the eve of your birthday.
None of which sound right.
Happy Heavenly Birthday my Boy!
Do I love you to the moon and back ?
Nope.
I love you to infinity and beyond.
Memories,
Now looked at feel touched with sorrow that your not here to make new ones.
I see you in so many things every day. This time of year would have been tent pegs and bbq's, swimming, ham and fried spuds, motorbikes, and by now a car or at the very least your own tractor. Yeah Dad would have protested and tried to say we didnt have the room but you would have talked him round with dreams of firewood and dragging trailers across muddy paddocks winning him over with that cheeky grin and tilt of you hat.
I miss you kiddo more as the days have turned to weeks and the weeks have become years.
You my boy, will never be forgotten. Cause even though I wasnt yours.... you will always be mine xx
until we meet again

Phil,
One of the bravest kids I ever knew!
Today would mark 6 years since the day you squashed your finger.
You were so brave and made me laugh when I had tears threatening to roll down my cheeks.
Your poor wee finger was swollen and black.... but you still managed to squeeze the heck out of it so it would bleed. You wanted a photo with lots of blood.
I miss everything about you, every day. But im sure you know that.
Darling, she misses you more than you could ever imagine. She promised me she'll never forget you.
So forever kiddo, cause forever is such a long time
XX

Hi Bunny
I still think of you on your birthday and on this anniversary day. It's so unfair you were taken from us. Life can be so bloody cruel. I know in my heart you would have been a wonderful, caring, sensible and loving young man if you were still here.
You would have made your dad and the rest of your family so proud.
Look after yourself and granddad.
Love Snookie xoxoxoxo
PS: Hope you still remember me?

Thinking about you Phil, and what you would be doing now.
Miss you, hope the bike tracks are good where you are.
Keely Forbes

Miss you kiddo.
15 ! What a celebration it should had been !
Instead I took a few minutes aside and strolled thru the camping section at mitre10 and imagined all the things you would have wanted (or so desperately needed) this summer. Funny enough I could sense your nagging to hit the chainsaw shops and check out a trailer too.
The honor was mine kiddo. Would change the you and me for anything. Memories for eternity
K

happy birthday my man today you have turned 15 and probably expecting the day of school.if you went on your big tour today wet as it is we would of gone for a ride to celebrate your day.son you have no idea how much you are missed every day i think of you and what we had done over the years and what we would be doing if you were still here.son enjoy your day my thoughts are always with you as always love you /proud of who you are and miss you more Dad

good morning son its 4in the morning and again a Thursday ,its had to be leave that in less than a week you will be 15 years old,every day i think of you and how much your passing has changed my life and many others .i miss you buddy hows grandad doing?i guess you will be arguing lots.until next time i write take care love you lots miss you more your proud dad

hello there hows it going now you have grandad with you?i could imagine you have take in charge and arguing every day with grandad lol.well phill Ive been back into the firewood again and missing your help more than ever.you would of been into this lot full noise with your own saw im sure of that.you no on saturday i had a couple of moments i could of swan you were standing right beside me telling me when can i have a turn on the splutter.my thoughts of you are ever so strong and of tern wounder what happened the day you started your big o/e today is raining again so stay warm talk again soon son love you miss you more dad

Well we finally got our last load of wood put away tonight. I could have really used your wood lugging and stacking skills lately! Your cousin did well though with his one piece per hand. I can imagine you two being ultra competitive with you carrying a pile way too big for your arms and Lukie saying "it's not a race I'm not playing " and sulking about it because he couldn't lift as many . I saw Dads message on the weekend and I can't help but think you will be stoked to have Grandad by your side again, he was your best friend since day one. I'm sure you already have a project lined up for the two of you.

well hello phill today i have a special message from grandad . Get off my chair im on my way put the jug on boy we have wood to cut and jobs to do.lol.yes son grandad has passed away and is now under your care so its time for you to show him the ropes on what happens up there.until next time son love you miss you more your proud Dad

Hi son, your brother and I have been thinking about you a lot lately. We miss you so very much we have some bug changes happening here and wish you were part of it all. You'd love the fact the motor bike will be living in the downstairs lounge until we build a shed for it. I could see you telling Scott how to build it. Life just is not the same without you wee man xxxxxxx think of you daily love mummy xxxxx

y hello sun its been a while sins i wrote to you .its Easter again and your not here to enjoy the break im not working at the moment as i buggered my knee up along with my back .these things seem to happen when you jump off the trailer at my age.nothing is the same any more son Isaiah and a lax came for the day yesterday and asked where you were?it was very hard to tell them you were on your long ride.if only you could pop in and say hello would be so great but we both no that's not possible but we have many pictures and meme res of you and who you really were and that's may son master of plenty.enjoy your Easter phill ride well as always love you and miss you more every day your dad

A letter from Mark Wells
11 March 2011

I am not familiar with the Scout badge structure but would like to nominate Philip Bunn for some sort of recognition.
Earlier this season, we had a load of firewood dumped on our front lawn, and I was able to move half of it on my days off. The next day, my wife set out to move some more, but Philip came across to our house to help with his trolley and shifted 3 cubic meters of wood for us.He was not only willing and persistent, but he was happy to our 4 year old daughter "help", which mainly consisted of telling Philip what to do.
Since then, Philip has reminded me several times that if I got more wood delivered, he is happy to help us out again
Yours Sincerely

Entered by Joy Bunn ( Nan to Phillipe)

Hey mate,
We got our first ever load of wood today, a huge one ready for our first winter with a fire. You would have loved it and taken charge over how to stack it and which bits should go where. You probably would have decided we needed to cut some ready for the fire just in case, even though its only February. I thought of you the entire time we were stacking it and Lukie and I told Kaitlyn lots about you and your wood obsession while we did it. Im sure you were there with us as we worked, cowboy hat, work boots and high-vis polarfleece and all.

Rest easy buddy fly high, thinking of you lots at the moment and I really do miss you, had izak over the other weekend and we had a great time talking about you, we all love you so much fly high dude rest easy keep riding your dirt bike for ever loaves and missed love Aunty jaz xoxo

I found this photo this morning, laughed so much that day our faces ached. Bubbles always remind me of you.
Mum x

My son, another year is gone, a lot has happened, so much I wanted to share with you. So many moments I wished you were there to see. Your birthday I remembered holding you close as you came into the world in such a hurry eager to see what life was all about. Constantly proving to your dad and I you could do it by yourself. Life is not the same any more. The moments come and go and the world continues to spin. I see you I hear you and I feel you all around me. I know you will be waiting on the flip side for us all son. Not a moment goes by you are not in my mind or my heart. Love from mummy xxx

Hi Bunny
I was thinking of you on Sunday, wishing time could be reversed so you could be here among those who love and miss you.
I will never forget you.
Love Snookie xoxo

Where do we put all the dreams we had for you?
Of camping and college, of cars and kids, of birthdays and Christmas?
Where do we put all this sorrow that sits in our heart waiting for your return
There are no answers,
So until we met we met we will cherish every moment we had
The good , the great and the not so great days.
So much changes, missing you doesnt.
Our hearts ache,
As do our arms for the want of wrapping you safely in them
So until we met again Philly, don't ride faster than your angels can fly

hi son i hope you have had a fantastic Christmas.. our thoughts of you have traveled with us and so has your photo.on new years eve we let a candle off at uncle johns just so you would no how to find your way home and that you did.today we are at moeraki camping for three nights and what a great spot .ive seen many dads down on the beach with there sons fishing and that makes me sad that you are not here for us to enjoy the same thing.i bought your new fishing rod with us but haven't been brave enough to use it yet .i can hear you saying come on dad we will miss the tide as always.friday we will head home as we have to pick up a heap of firewood we have picked up on trade me for Nan.as us usual in the last while you are missing in action .but i no you are watching every move i make .nothing is the same son but every thing for a reason aye.sounds like Ive being listening to mum to much aye lol.i bought heaps of tin signs when we have been traveling so really good man cave ones . although we have had a great time we have missed you dearly and regardless of the time you have been gone it doesn't get any easier.grandad asks about you often and Nan misses you dearly as we all do.until next time ride safe my boy love you miss you more your proud dad. p/s ill get mum to send you a photo of what father Christmas bought for me this year youl love it.

Another birthday, another Christmas, another year gone without you.
Its this time of year, the time to trip over tent pegs on the way to the clothesline! By now there would have been a month of camping in the back yard with everything you could find to add to the excitement. Including anything that Dad would have stashed away (shower tent lol)
I miss the adventures, your quest for mischief. Which you would have called inspecting. But sadly the tent sits and gathers dust, nothing is the same without you. The space you left ever grows bigger, nothing can nor will ever fill the void your passing has left.
I often think of the journey you now travel, over the rainbow but not so far away.No matter our journey now we are reminded of your unique approach, of how you would have done things your way. We love you as much as yesterday and will miss you more as each day passes. I know your watching on with encouragement, laughter and tears too.
Until we met again Son,
As always
Mum x

Hi Bunny, Gee 14 on Tuesday. I can't believe another birthday has gone by - you should have been here to celebrate it(life sucks at times).
I know in my heart that if you were here you would be an amazing, caring, loving and wonderful young teenager.
I still look at our photo(sitting in it's special place) and wonder why you had to leave the world at such a young age. What a waste!
I think of you often and miss you.
Love Snookie xoxo
PS: I went surf casting last Saturday and caught 2 Elephant fish. They were huge! Wish you could have been here to see the photos.

Phil, our nephew; master of excuses, lover of argument and mischief maker with the big heart. You should have been celebrating 14 (goin' on 30) years young today.... always on our mind and forever in our hearts. Your roguish ways made you lovable and a pain in the butt at times but you were our (family) pain in the butt and we loved you. Miss you more than words can say. Little things bring you to mind....at the moment it's when I'm cooking Uncle Al his fried spuds and ham....you know what I mean...
Aunty Ree and Uncle Al and cousies.

Hi sun today is your birthday the big 14 you are now,time has gone fast and now you are a teenager and what a great son at that.a shame you are not here to celebrate your birthday with me but you are in my heart and my thoughts like a stuck record and thats all i need to get by with.tonight ill have a beer in your honor i hope your bike is going well and kate is behaving for you happy birthday dude love you miss you .your proud dad

I miss u mi friend. I sometimes c ur dad but not 4 ages.

Hey Son, I haven't done this until now, your dad suggested it might help. Time has not made this any easier for all your people you left behind baby. I never ever thought I would have to do this, I never thought I would have to say goodbye to you, Every morning I wake up and you are the first thing that I think of. And many times through the day. I feel you all around me all the time baby, And I see the signs you leave me so I know you are there. I still cannot believe you left us so soon and I guess Ill have to wait for my time to hold you again. I see you in your brother and it makes me miss you more. I love you to the moon and back baby <3

hey dude its been a while since Ive written to you son.i still cannot be leave your on your big ride.would be nice if you could write me an answer but i guess i have to wait until we meet again for that aye!As you have already been told im in the firewood depot at the moment and have takein your saw with me every time .it sort of helps me feel that you are still involved.i guess that sounds silly to you but it helps.phill you are and were the biggest part of my life and im struggling to come to terms with you leaving way to early in life.every time i open my eyes you are in my first thoughts for the day.for the past few weeks and the week off ive just had ive spent doing. the things we always did together.by the way i upgraded your chainsaw the other day so you will be able to cut bigger logs now.son i miss you more than you will ever know i may not of been the perfect FATHER but i tr yd to be the best i could under all the circumstances we had through-in at us .love you always miss you heaps until next time son love Dad

Phil,
There are so many way I miss you. The morning greet "Morena" leaving Dad to roll his eyes at our foreign language. You always loved my cooking, And now shortbread isn't made cause it just makes me sad. Dad manages the wood on his own, but it takes him forever without you. He even caught a cold last weekend! Oh and Dad got to meet Bill English , I think you would have been taller cause he is ever so short.
Its not fair is it !That all these memories are all we have left. The space is always empty and it will be until we meet again. Watch over your Dad, he misses you so much. And watch over your cousins, Lukie and Riley.
Until we meet again

Hey mate easter didn't get any easier this year than it was last year.. I've thought of you all weekend long as did your cousin. We speak of you every day and the gap you've left can never be filled.

Today is the second to last day you are 12
Monday you will be a teenager.Today I looked at a photo that bought pride and tears as do so many accomplishments you made. As your dad I could not be more proud of who you are, you will always be by my side in my thoughts and in my heart.
Monday we will ride to our sacred place for the way of saying Happy Birthday Son, love you always , Your very proud Dad

Missed you today, like every other day kiddo. Friday memories of you rolled down my cheek, Saturday I felt you in the wind, riding right beside me.
Until we meet again

I looked at that page where the book mark is left, forget-me-not.
So I read thru the pages, there wasn't a lot.
But the story was told, and now more than ever.
It wasn't so random it was rather quite clever.
There will never be a farewell, goodbye, see you later
Because love is forever and that's much greater
Loved you then. Love you still
Always have always will xx
