RIP Leon Nelson AKA Lion
Leon died of a single stab wound to the abdomen on Tuesday 31 July 2007.
He was raised up in Stockwell and lived there for most of his life then moved on to different towns
e.g. Putney, Croydon
His partner Karleen stuck by him through EVERYTHING, good times and bad times, he also had one
older brother Aaron who looked after him at all times and always. He always told him to keep away
from evil but the strong minded person Leon was he would never listen to good advice and always did
it his way.
Last of all he had one beautiful daughter Mya who he spoiled rotten.
Mya loved and adored her dad so much, when her dad was with her she always wanted to go where he
was going she was like his shadow. He was the apple of her eye.
He always would put a smile on her face and made her laugh 24/7
There is an emptyness in our hearts that will never be filled we all thank god that we had so many
happy times to remember you by we can't imagine how we are going to live without you :(
All this senseless killings have to stop before all young boys and men are wiped off this planet so
young women cannot create family’s of their own, it needs to stop it hurts so many people and
causes pain sorrow and damage to many families like my own, time doesn't really heal the pain of
these things.
The guns and knives need to STOP...how many more innocent people are going to lose their lives to
senseless and cruel violence.
How many more family’s have to bury their child, father ,brother ,partner, husband etc due to
hands of others, how many more family’s have to go through what I’m going thought. It’s so not
fare… :(
Leon babes, you will always be in our thoughts and sadly be missed by all of your family and friends
who will never ever, ever ,ever forget you.

Thinking Of You At Christmas
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
happy xmas
Happy Christmas in God's garden. The only peace I have is knowing that you and Diane are together for eternity. People say time heals but it doesn't, I know one day we will all meet in God's garden where there will be no pain or sorrow only peace and harmony. My prayers go out to Mya and Karleen at this time and I know how strong Karleen will be for your daughter, she will never let Mya forget what a wonderful dad you are. All my love till we meet again. Ian Linda & family
I will never stop loving you x
Without you, the city falls asleep softly,
Without you, the colour disappears slowly,
Without you, the trees forget the wind,
Without you, the night is chagrined.
Without you, my music does not amaze,
Without you, my hours are days,
Without you, my heart gets bored,
Without you, my thoughts prevent me from going to bed,
Without you, I do not distinguish the horizon ahead,
Without you, there are no heavens,
Without you, the time forgets its reasons.
Without you, I am afraid of the next day not chosen,
Without you, the haze conceals the splendid ocean,
Without you, I do not figure or picture anything pleasant,
Without you, I am wondering this question at this moment...
My love, where are you hidden?
Without you, my happiness is forbidden,
My heart without you, is not at all replete,
My life without you, is so incomplete...
Thinking of you Always
I have been thinking of you and Diane a lot lately. I think it is because there are things going on. I miss you so much that my heart breaks. I still can not believe someone would kill you Leon. The only peace i have is knowing you and Diane are together and that one day we WILL meet again. Keep strong Karleen, Mya and Aaron. God will see justice done if not in this world then the next. God Bless give Diane a big kiss and cuddle and one for you. LOVE FOREVER LINDA
