♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin was murdered on the 19th of May 2008 just three weeks after her 25th Birthday which should have been a very important exciting time and stepping stone in her life. Tamzin had just inherited a very large sum of money on her 25th Birthday from her grandmother's estate but the money was delayed and the part received before her death only cleared Tamzin’s bank when she died. The rest of Tamzin’s inheritance from her grandmother was never received. ♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Horses and ponies were what Tamzin’s life was all about and Tamzin had just purchased further miniatures for her breeding program and had planned to purchase more. We had just given Tamzin three fields for her ponies and she had bought a new trailer for them days before she was murdered. Tamzin had setup her own prefix and had registered with estate agents as she had planned to purchase her own land for her stud.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ One of Tamzin's mares was due to foal a few days after she died. Tamzin was looking forward so much to this foal being born as it was from two blood lines she knew would produce a wonderful result. This was to be her first foal under her own prefix. The foal was born a week after Tamzin died and has now been named Tribute (as a tribute to Tamzin).♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin grew up with horses all around her. She started riding when she was just 18 months old in a basket saddle on the Shetland pony we bought for her, who is still going strong and is now 41 years old.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin worked as a competition groom in the Leicester / Melton area which was a job she enjoyed very much and she also enjoyed meeting some of the most famous names in the horse jumping world. Tamzin twice enrolled at Moulton College to gain qualifications to further her career in the equine industry. She made many friends who all had the same intense love of horses as Tamzin did. She was always friendly and full of fun and just wanted to enjoy life as much as she could.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin loved her ponies with all her heart and had planned to setup a school specialising in riding for the disabled so she could help unfortunate children and give something back to the community. She researched this project to its full extent as this was extremely important to her as she wanted to see the fun and enjoyment the ponies would give disabled children and help them overcome disabilities with the therapy that the ponies gave.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin was an extremely talented girl who would fight to the bitter end in what she believed in. When Tamzin put her mind to something she could make it happen with her shear grit and determination!♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin has left behind her mother Dorothy, father Michael, brother Mark, sister Yasan and her miniature horses who all miss her very much. We are desperately trying to come to terms with Tamzin's murder. Her sister Yasan was expecting her first baby in December 2008 and Tamzin was looking forward to becoming an aunt. She had so many plans, all of which were easily obtainable with her talent and enthusiasm.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ In Hand showing of ponies was one of Tamzin’s most enjoyable interests which she was extremely successful at throughout her life. At the tender age of 15, Tamzin had won many, many championships and at the 1998 UK-USA horse show Tamzin beat all the other 770 horses winning the champion of all champions in the show. Tamzin showed the miniatures all over Britain and won championship after championship (some of the cups and trophies can be seen on Michael Spalding's garden). When we left the show grounds in our horsebox we would always play “We are the Champions” by Queen (the song playing now) at full volume and all the family, friends and helpers in the horsebox would sing along at the top of our voices celebrating that we had won the championships again! Tamzin had a lovely rare talent with ponies and will be deeply missed by the Equine fraternity, her animals, her family and all her many friends.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Two days before Tamzin was murdered; she rescued a stray cat and named him Socks as he has four white socks. He now lives happily with us and constantly reminds us of Tamzin's love for all animals.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ We miss our daughter more than words can describe; her happy smiling face, funny laugh and her fantastic ability to make friends and enjoy life wherever she was.♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Rest in Peace Tamzin, we know you are watching over and looking after us. You are in our thoughts all the time, we will never ever forget you Tamzin and we will treasure your memory for the rest of our lives! ♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥ Tamzin is also featured on the family website for the Tanzivan Stud when she was younger. http://www.spotted-pony.com ♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥. The day after the first anniversary of Tamzin’s death I was feeling rather tearful while looking after all of our & Tamzin’s ponies. It was 10:30 at night with a clear evening sky with the stars showing. While looking up I said in a loud voice “Where are you Tamzin, which star are you?” at that precise moment a shooting star appeared and quickly shot across the night sky. This reassured me that Tamzin heard me and was ok in heavens garden. This has given me such a wonderful feeling as what better way could Tamzin's spirit have answered my question?” ♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥
as you have gone way before your time, i hope you have arrived somewhere safe and sound....lets hope where ever you are, there are plenty of animals to look after, people that need a smile on their faces....because you will be the one to help them all out!
God bless you Tamzin, you are in my prays

poem
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die. x

You walked through my world
In this dance we call life,
Dancing with me in joy,
Dancing with me in strife.
You gave me the song,
And gave me the chance;
To learn about love,
When you taught me to dance
It was not just the music,
Nor the steps that we made
But is now in sweet memorie;
That never will fade.
For love was your music,
And life was your song;
You taght me to dance,
And how to be strong.
You showed me what love was
Even in your goodbye;
Now we've come full circle
In the dance we call life.
So, dance with the angels,
And may you find rest;
Your song's in my heart,
And my life, fully blessed
for Tamzin mum xxx
Ask My Mum How Is She
My Mum, she tells a lot of lies
She never did before.
From now until the day she dies.
She'll tell a whole lot more.
She used to tell the truth, a lot
But now it doesn't matter.
I died and went to heaven,
Her life is all a-shatter.
Ask my Mum how is she.
She'll say, 'Yes, I'm fine!'
She wants to beg 'Please help me.
I can\'t find that girl of mine!'
Ask my Mum, how is she,
She'll say,'I'm alright.'
If that's the truth then tell me,
Why does she cry each night?
Ask my Mum, how is she,
She seems to cope so well.
She didn't have a choice, you see,
Nor the strength to yell.
You think you know the feeling,
But this cannot be.
For even though you loved me,
You didn't love as much as she.
She will smile and tell you,
'It's o.k. God has a plan.'
But she will turn away and cry
'Cause she just can't understand.
Tell a joke and she will laugh,
But she is not o.k.
She wants to share the joke with me,
But it will not be today.
I watch from here, in Heaven.
Her distress disturbs my peace.
Will someone please take care of her,
And thus take care of me?
'Some day you will feel better.'
'Yes I will.' she lies.
She knows this will not happen,
Until the day she dies.
'I was so lucky!
I had her all those years!'
(They passed in a minute,
I shed so many tears.)
Ask my Mum how is she,
She'll say, 'Thank you. Good.'
She cannot tell you how she feels.
Oh, how I wish she could.
Ask my Mum how is she,
'I'm fine, I'm well, I'm coping.'
For God's sake, Mum, just tell the truth
Just say your heart is broken.
Ask my Mum how is she,
'I'm well, I'm good. And you?'
I'll shake my head in Heaven.
It simply isn't true.
She'll love me all her life.
I loved her all of mine.
But if you ask how is she,
She'll lie and say she's fine.
Her carnival is over.
She's stepped off the carousel.
But, to save you feeling badly,
She'll say, 'Thanks, all is well.'
My Mum, she's not gone mad, yet.
But, oh so very nearly.
Don't ask my Mum how is she,
Ask how is she, really.
I am here in Heaven.
I cannot hug from here.
If she lies to you, don't listen.
Hug her, hold her near.
On the day we meet again,
We'll smile and I'll be bold.
I'll say, 'You're lucky to get in here, Mum,
With all the lies you told!'
Simply put ...I really miss you
I've continued to ask why
Life took this dreadful wrong turn...
Now I often sit and cry
Simply put ...my heart is broken
Most people have no clue
Unless they live this heartache...
They don't know what I've lived through
Simply put... I long to hug you
Share a gentle warm embrace
Often spend each day just wishing....
This truth could somehow be erased
Simply put... I can't remember...
The last time I heard your voice
Memories are often painful...
I was not given any choice
Simply put... I know I'm grieving
Won't get better through the years
I have learned some coping methods...
To accept this new frontier
Simply put... I'm good at masking
Denying what I feel
For I know deep down inside me...
I will never truly heal
Simply put...I really miss you
No one knows the pain I bear
Simply put... there is no reason
Losing you was just not fair
Have A Good Weekend Everyone
Friday
You were a gift sent straight from Heaven.
Given to us from God above.
We didn't know how much you would teach us
About the meaning of true love...
For true love sometimes means letting go
Of someone precious and dear.
That is what we were forced to do...
Although we wanted to keep you here!!!
However, this is quite a selfish wish.
One we know we should ignore...
But, we truly do believe
That God must have needed you more...
Perhaps to be an Angel now,
Full of wisdom and love...
Watching over those of us who love you
From the shining stars above.
We miss you more than you can know.
You will never be replaced...
In our hearts and memories forever,
Will be your sweet and innocent sleeping face.
Each time we see your picture
You seem to smile and say,
“Don’t cry, I’m in God’s hands,
We’ll meet again someday!”
“The Best”
God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
And He whispered “Come to Me”
With tearful eyes we watched you.
We watched you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard-working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He chose to take the best.
It’s lonesome here without you
We miss you more each day.
Life doesn’t seem the same
Since you have gone away.
When days are sad and lonely
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper
“Cheer Up and Carry On”
Thoughts Today Memories Forever
Angela(Christopher-John Rowe)Mum
THERE HAVE BEEN ANGELS IN MY LIFE
There have been angels in my life,
While they haven't arrived with a blast of trumpets,
Or a rustle of wings,
I've known them just the same,
They performed their acts in human guise,
Sometimes borrowing the faces of family or friends,
Sometimes passing as well meaning strangers,
You have known them too,
When the right word was needed,
When a tiny act of kindness,
Made a great difference,
Or perhaps you heard a voice,
Whispering in the night,
The words not quite clear,
But the message unmistakable,
There is hope,
Ther is hope .......
love hugs xoxoxoxxo
You are my friend...And I hope u know that’s true...no matter what happens... I will stand by u... I will be there for u... when ever u need me... to lend a hand.... to do a good deed...so call on me....whenever u need me... I will always be there...Even to the bitter end...

A SMILE FOR YOU
Smiling is infectious, you catch it like the flu

I thought about that smile then I realised its Worth
A single smile just like mine could travel around The earth
So if you feel a smile begin don’t leave it Undetected
Lets start an epidemic quick and get the world Infected
EVERY ONE NEEDS A SMILE

![](http://www.gonetoosoon.org/file/gift__91x91/_2ece02d0b0e20a7b7d1e700b7090241a/_angel.jpg "4 years today our Tamzin was murdered by her ex-boyfriend who had previously tried killing her three times. He has also made many death threats all of which were on police record. Tamzin said in the morning of the 19th of May 2008 "I know Andre' is going to Murder me and it will be a horrific death". Hours later Tamzin was found dead by her mother in the exact method that Andre' boasted that he could kill and get away with it. I told the police 3 times on the day that I thought Tamzin had been murdered but just as Andre' had boasted the police weren't interested and put Tamzin's death down to suicide and have lied ever since.
Earlier this month Tamzin's murderer committed suicide as he could no longer live with what he had done!")
