Mccollum, Christopher Andrew

MCCOLLUM, CHRISTOPHER ANDREW - Died 8th September 2001 aged 16 Treasured memories of a dear son and best friend "8th September 2024 23 years missed even more, Saying that, were remembered too Day George Best met you. Midland Hotel, a special day "Have to meet him Dad" you would say, I went inside saw Phil Hughes George's Agent, and pointed to you. George came out "Hello young man" Made you feel a proud fan Lovely photo got that day. My favourite, have to say. Keith asked me to Roselawn Cemetery Mark George's 78th birthday Took your photo with me too, Fans loved seeing George with you. Told Andrew from Wales your George story Amazed what he then told me Phil Hughes he knows really well, See him soon, your story will tell. Two weeks later guess who I seen Phil Hughes on my mobile screen Remembered that day meeting you, Pleased to help, said George was too. 24 years since that special day Speaking to Phil, like yesterday Felt meant to happen as if from above, By George and you sent with love. Copies of photo sent to them Andrew put in his George museum As well as Besties in Portavogie, Now in Wales people can see. United not a good season Injuries main reason Still won FA Cup good to see, As they beat Man City. Gladiators on TV again Memories of you seeing them You laughed at what Wolf said he would do, Down the stairs throw your wheelchair and you. Your empty space no one can fill We miss you Chris and always will." Forever in our hearts, love never dies Love Mum & Dad XX
