Michael John GRUNSHAW
Unexpectedly on October 1, 2006, and of Johnston Street. Blackburn, Michael aged 19 years. The most
dearly loved son of Michael and Nikola, a much loved brother of Heidi, James and Jade, a loving
grandson of grandma Doris, grandad Bill, grandma Kay, grandad Peter and also nan Brenda, loved
nephew of Patricia, Richard, Elaine and John, Dawn and Dave, John and Wendy, Pally, Michelle and
Terry, Gerald and Wendy and also a dear cousin of Tammy and Dion and Michael's many other
cousins. Michael, a good friend to many and will be sadly missed by all.

We had an inquest on the 18th of December which a toxicology and post mortem report was read to us.
Michael died of cocaine mixed with beer which caused his heart to fail. My brother was not a
regulary user of cocaine and my dad didnt know that he even touched drugs before... sadly i did and
i was with him the night before. There is no such thing as a safe drug , and you always think it
will never happen to you! I know because i have done it myself.



Michael you are missed by us loads n loads.
still think about you everyday, you was liked by everyone. you didnt deserve to go. why does God
take all the good people? there must be a reason for it. i hope that you can see clearly now and
that you have headed for a bright sun shiny day.

RIP big brother keep on smiling
we will all be together again . . . . one day!

Toddler Memories

Still thinking of you all and Michael- specially as it would have been your 21st this year in Jan. You were there when I first brought my son David home from hospital when he was born, such a cutie you were. Your face when he cried was utter amazement you were only 1 yourself but looked aghast that this little thing was crying. When you were about 3-4 you both loved cars - you gave my son a car once even though it was one you liked yourself and my son had that car for years it was one of his favourites too, think you got my son into cars at a young age as he mad about them now. Don't be eating too many Wotzits up there eh as you know what happened 1st time you ever ate 1 - never seen your mum panic soo much lol. Wishing you all our love and hope ya still smiling up in heaven sweetie xx
Debbie, David, Lisa & Jamie

There is a place in every heart,
They call it Memory Lane,
Where thoughts of loved ones lost
Forever will remain.

God made this special place
When He first created man,
For He knew it would be needed,
As part of our life's plan.

He knew when loved ones left us,
We'd need some time to heal,
To come to terms with sorrow
And the loneliness we'd feel.

So when you lose a loved one
And your life is filled with pain,
The comfort of their presence
Will be found in Memory Lane.

THANKING YOU FOR ALL THE LOVE AND SUPPORT
WHICH YOU GIVE TO MYSELF AND DEBBIE
YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY THOUGHTS
LOVE YVONNE
