Craig Lee Paterson

Lost to us unexpectedly on the 16 August 2006, through a motorcycle accident.
Craig was on his way home one night after a ride out with the boys and didnt make it home.

Craig was only 30 years young, a much loved son of Tilda, annoying big brother to Vicki and adored
Uncle of Keiran. A very tall nephew to Great Aunty Mary and Great Aunty Margaret, and cousin to the
girls, Jen, Karen and Chae. The list continues but is very long...he loved everyone and the feeling
was mutual.

Based out in Crieff after a stint in Perth and Pitlochry Craig was training to be a Paramedic. He
loved his job and thought very highly of his colleagues, who unfortunately had the task of having to
attend to the scene of the accident. He started his medical training when he joined the army in
1998. He came home in 1999 and joined the crew at Perth.

Craig was a great man with a wicked sense of humour. Loved a round of golf, his motorbike and
playing pranks on people. He always made you laugh and took care of the people close to him.

A very gentle giant with a beautiful smile.
Missed more than he will ever know.

R.I.P Craig

2 years on

Hi Craigiebaby, Well it's hard to believe that 2 years have passed, in some ways it seems like only yesterday you were still with us but in others that seems a lifetime ago. Came out to see you today, it was so touching to see that your friends and colleagues remember you with love and affection. All of your flowers look so lovely and I hope that you enjoyed the impromptu conga (yeah we are all mad, did you check out the models posing). Think that piccie should be put on your site here, give everyone a laugh. It was a nice day and good to catch up with everyone face to face rather than just txts and phone calls, it is just the reason that we were together that is sad...wish you were still here....loved and remembered every day in every possible loving way

Craig PATERSON
Treasured memories of a dear nephew and cousin Craig who died 16th August, 2006.

'They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal,
But neither time or reason Will change the way we feel.
For no one knows the heartache That lies beneath our smiles, No one knows how many times We have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something, So there won't be any doubt. Your so wonderful to think of, But so hard to do without.'

With love from Margaret and Jennifer X

For mum xx

Mum, please don't feel guilty
It was just my time to go.
I see you are still feeling sad,
And the tears just seem to flow.
We all come to earth for our lifetime,
And for some it's not many years
I don't want you to keep crying
You are shedding so many tears.
I haven't really left you
Even though it may seem so.
I have just gone to my heavenly home,
And I'm closer to you than you know.
Just believe that when you say my name
I'm standing next to you,
I know you long to see me,
But there's nothing I can do.
But I'll still send you messages
And hope you understand,
That when your time comes to cross over,
I'll be there to take your hand.
