My thoughts are with you all at this sad time. Please accept my deepest condolences at the passing of Darren and Joshua. I have many wonderful childhood memories of my time spent enjoying the the warm and welcoming home the Southon family had in Beetham Street. Darren was always part of our bike rides, tennis games and fun. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My dearest Darren and sweet little Joshua, my heart is heavy with sadness.

Darren you will always be so very special to me. You radiated love and kindness where ever you went and I feel blessed to have had you in my life as a brother and a dear friend.

May you and Josh be at peace with the angels and your souls exploring the heavens together just like you did on earth.

Lisa and Jorja, my heart hurts so much for you. I'm here for you. I pray that you are both blessed with love and light and find comfort and healing in the warmth and love of your family and friends that surround you now.

"There are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains."

Love you
