♥ 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 but due to the actions of
her uncle & aunt 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 due to the actions of her evil uncle & aunt and still remain to this date May 2009
outstanding. Due to this Tamzin could not pay her murderer the extremely large sum he demanded (many
tens of thousands of pounds) which doubled each week it was late. This money was to be paid on
Tamzin’s birthday to finally leave Tamzin & our family alone after the six years of violence,
death threats and previous murder attempts. ♥ 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 ♥

Not a days goes by when I do not see your face, hear your voice, and I miss you more each day. It's been over 7 months and I still cannot believe I will never see you again. Watch over your family at this tough time, and keep your eye on your beautiful niece.
God Bless You Mate.

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
While thinking of the many things
We didn't 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.

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




If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We’d express all our unspoken love;
We’d have countless things to say.

If we could bring you back again,
We’d say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives
Meant more than we ever knew.

If we could bring you back again,
To tell you what we should,
You’d know how much we miss you now,
And if we could, we would.



Our memories build a special bridge
When loved ones have to part.
To help us feel we're with them still
And soothe a grieving heart.

Our memories span the years we shared,
Preserving ties that bind.
They build a special bridge of love
And bring us peace of mind.



As New Year approaches
It seems harder this time of year
We miss you so much more
The only thing that gets us through
Are the memories of before
So here's a card just for you
To show how much we care
I know your waiting with the angels
One day I'll see you there.


Thoughts Today Memories Forever
Angela(Christopher-John Rowe)Mum

I would like to thank everyone for all the candles, tributes gifts and kind words they have left on Christopher’s website I appreciate every single one.

I would also like to wish you all A Happy New Year & my best wishes for 2009.

REMEMBER ME

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone away into the silent land
When you can no more hold my hand
Not I half turn to go, yet turning stay
Remember me when no more day to day
You tell me of our future that you planned
Only remember me, you understand
It will be late to council then or pray
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that I once had
Better by far that you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

From Sheila Freeman (Cousin)

WITH LOVE XXX

Desiderata
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful.

Strive to be happy.


--- Max Ehrmann, 1927

Christmas thoughts

Christmas Without You

The lights are blinking merrily
The tinsel’s on the tree
It sits there in the window
For all the world to see.

The house is filled with holly
And pinecone scents the air
The Christmas cards keep coming
Each one is hung with care.

The gifts are tied with ribbons red
And topped with pretty bows

The fire is softly glowing
But Christmas isn’t Christmas
without you

If I could have just anything
My Christmas wish would be
To wake up in the morning
And find you are there with your family.

THE DAYS HAVE GONE YOU'S USED TO SHARE,
BUT THE MEMORIES OF YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THERE,
THE FAMILY THAT YOU LEFT BEHIND,
CAN NO LONGER SHARE THIS PRECIOUS TIME,
BUT YOU"RE IN THEIR HEARTS AT THIS SPECIAL TIME OF YEAR,
AND NEVER FAR FROM THEIR MINDS AT ANYTIME OF THE DAY.
