William Gardiner
born 4th Jan 1963-died 28th Aug 2005,
Son of David & Janet, Brother to Mary & Margaret.
Tragically taken (Murdered) away from his
family on 28th Aug 2005, for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He had been at a house
party & was on his way home when a car had pulled up and fired shots at the window of a house just
as william walked out of the house they turned & shot him in the chest. It broke all our hearts when
we were told. He was the most kind, fun, loving person to have ever walked on this earth. Anyone who
has ever met Womble will know what kind of guy he was. Everyone in our community was devasted when
they found out about William, no-one could believe it was him and how we wish it wasnt true to have
happened to my brother . Our family lives changed forever that day and will never be the same again.
Life without him is very hard, Everyday we have to go on the best way possible no matter how
difficult it may be. He worked hard mon-fri driving his lorry, he lived with his parents David &
Janet who miss him terribly and have never got over his death and never will. They go throught life
the best way they can living each day as it comes. They never thought that their son would ever be
buried before them, its every parents worst nightmare. He has 2 sisters Mary who is older & Margaret
who is younger, they will never forget him ever because their love for him is in their hearts & the
memories they have will always be with them. When he seperated from his wife Ann he moved back to
his parents home where he lived for the last 5 years before his life was taken from us all. By 5
murdering b******s but only 2 out of 5 were convicted of murder. Although they were jailed it
doesnt bring him back. At times we do things or even call his name then we are reminded of our loss
again. The hardest part of life we have to live with is we never got to say goodbye. No last words
were spoken as his life was taken away from us all so soon. He has 2 children Terri, David &
Granddaughter Kiera. He loved being a papa. He is also an uncle to Janet, Duncan, Gillian, Graham,
Angela, Andrew & his name sake wee William. That morning I got a phone call from my big sister mary
to go round to her house and when I got there a police car was outside her home. Inside 2 police men
were standing! They told me to sit down then one of them said there had been a shooting and my
brother had been shot. Nothing in this world had prepaired me for what I had just been told, these
words will live with me forever, we still expect him to walk through the door & hear his voice or
see his face. We live each day as best we can and we speak of william every day just as if he is
still here. We will never understand (WHY) it happened. He was a kind and gentle person that
didn\\\'t deserve to be taken away from his family & friends. He loved to party and was always there
to help anyone no matter what. He loved to watch his football team Rangers with his friend steven
whom supported celtic, What a pair they were aswell! Keeping each other going which ever team won on
that day it was all just fun to them. He misses William terribly. I miss him so much & I never
imagined in a million years that he wouldn\\\'t be around for me when ever I needed him, he was
always there for me. He looked out for all his family & made sure they didn\\\'t come to any harm he
was a proud family man. Our mum & dad celebrated there 50th Wedding Anniversary on 10th March 2007.
We celebrated the best we could, although we were sad because William wasn\\\'t with us, but we
believe he is always here in spirit. He loved a good party Our Wull. He was funny and loved his life
very much, he would do anything for a laugh, even kid on he was a stripper at parties. Thats just
the kind of guy he was, always joking! Everybody knew and loved him. He is missed very, very much..
Love n miss you ever day of our life Wull.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
(Simply the best ).

Your gentle face and patient smile
With sadness we recall
You had a kindly word for each
And died beloved by all.
Your life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure...
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure...
We miss you now, our hearts are sore,
As time goes by we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face,
No one can fill your vacant place.
Looking back with memories,
Upon the path you trod,
We bless the hours we had with you,
And leave the rest with God.
missing you
so many things have happened,
since you were called away,
so many things to share with you,
had you been left to stay,
every day in some small way,
though absent you are ever near,
still missed,loved and always dear.
love n kisses from your wee sis .xxxxx
4 years
This is a little letter to you
To let you know that its true
I miss you every single day
& its my heart that has to pay
4yrs you have been gone
& I still feel all alone
Why oh why was it your time
I wish you back; they can have mine
Uncle William, you're simply the best
I'll see you again when I rest
It just seems so far away
& yet I remember you like yesterday
I wish you were here having fun
Laughing & joking like you always done
I cry, I hurt, its just not fair
Why did our hearts have to tear
With me forever & always in my heart
Janetxx

Today I found a penny,
Just laying on the ground.
But it's not just a penny,
This little coin I've found.
Found pennies come from heaven.
That's what my Grandpa told me.
He said Angels toss them down.
Oh, how I loved that story.
He said when an Angel misses you,
They toss a penny down,
Sometimes just to cheer you up,
To make a smile out of your frown.
So don't pass by that penny
When you're feeling blue;
It may be a Penny from Heaven
That an Angel's tossed to you.
Pass this on to the people who you care
about and who you feel that are angels to you.
An angel is now watching over you.
missing you
Why when your so special
Why when your so young
Everybody loved you,
And your life had just begun,
Why do we have trouble sleeping,
Have tears on our pillow case
Its because we long to see you
With that smile upon your face,
Why did you have to leave us,
Why did we have to part,
The worse day of our lives that day,
And it really broke our hearts
shining bright
THE BRIGHTEST STAR
