Name: Darren Bonner (Daz)
Day he passed on to pastures new: 28th May 2007
Age: 31
Occupation: Lead Signaller in the Royal Anglian 1st Battalion
Darren was born in Barking Essex and then he and the family moved to Edmonton and then to Tottenham.
From there we all moved to the countryside in Thorney Peterborough. It was here he decided to join
the army.
Darren lived with his mum Christine, and his three sisters Keely, Claire and Dannielle. Once he
joined the army he lived almost everywhere!
On the 28th May 2007, Darren was tragically involved in a landmine explosion in Afghanistan, in
Helmand Province, whilst on patrol. At this moment our lives were changed forever.............. This
beautiful man was snatched from our lives..............
Darren was totally devoted to his job in the army, he lived and breathed the army. He was a big man
with a big heart and loved everyone, and everybody he touched loved him. He was a presence that no
one could ignore and most of all he was my big brother.
Darren was an ardent spurs fan, who enjoyed nothing more than going to watch them play. Any Arsenal
fans he knew, he would make them a cuppa in a Spurs mug and took delight in watching them drink it,
and enjoy it!!
Darren was full of life, was very bubbly, and enjoyed telling a joke or two, played jokes on
everyone, he was a big charmer especially with the all the ladies!
Everyone knew when Darren was in the room, it would be lit up with laughter and smiles. He was just
a huge person with a big heart and you couldn't help but love him.
Im so proud of you Darren, I've always looked up to you, words cant describe how much I miss
you.
Im still waiting for you to burst through the door, with stories and jokes to tell. As your baby
sister you always protected me, and I know you'll always be there with me, keeping me safe. I
am so so proud of you, I'm so lucky to have a brother as kind, warm, caring, fun and brave as
you.
I cant wait to see you again. I love you Darren, my big brother, my hero. Love your baby sister
Dannielle xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Darren also leaves behind two darling sons.

Light a candle for those we mourn,
Into a new life they will be born
Do not look for them at the gravesite,
They are somewhere else radiating their beautiful light.
They have gone into a new world
Where there is no darkness, no pain
Their light and essence will always remain...
Light a candle for those who have left this mortal place,
They are free to travel through time and space
When we think of them, they are near,
When we sit in a beautiful garden, their voices we hear
When we listen to a divine symphony
We close our eyes, their faces we see...
Light a candle for they have not really gone
With each flickering flame, in your hearts
They will always belong...
LOVE YOU BRO xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
OUR HERO xxxxxxxx
Hey Big Bro,
This Rose is for you - I saw this theme page and I had to put it on. Roses always reminds me of you. On your funeral day, I held them 10 roses all day, smelt them and looked at them all day, and finally put them down on top of you, so you could keep them and look after them.
Been thinking about you so much, as always. And with xmas coming up, I just want it to hurry up and go away! It reminds me of the Christmas' with you, the day I waited by the window for you to come and couldn't wait to see you. Your little pile of presents, sitting in the living room floor, everyone else had opened theirs, as you were late, that's where I get my lateness from!! hehehe. And just kept looking outside til I saw your car pull up. And Oh Boy, when you turned up, I was so happy, so much to share with you and tell you. Our food together, when I didn't like some parts of my food, you're like the human dustbin, hahahaha, you ate all me food up!!!
I am so proud of you bro, you are so amazing, and I am so proud to call you my brother. One day I will see you again, and hear you again, and I cant wait til that day, but until then, I will dream of you, talk to you and think of you everyday. You are always in my heart, forever. There is something so special with us four, that no one could ever take away, we are complete together, and without one of us, we just aint the same. We are like a circuit, it doesn't work without one of us. We aint just family, we are best friends and everything to each other. I love you smelly, please look over me like always. Really need you at the moment, feeling really low lately.
Miss you so much xxxxxxxx
Love your Baby Sis xxxxxxxx TITCH xxxxxxxxx

Right now I'm in a different place
And although we seem apart
I'm closer than I ever was
I'm there inside your heart
I'm with you when you greet each day
And while the sun shines bright
I'm there to share the sunsets too
I'm with you every night
I'm with you when the times are good
And if a tear should start to fall
I'll still be there for you
And when the day arrives
That we are no longer apart
I'll smile and hold you close to me
Forever in my heart
Sorry ive not been on for a while but due to PC playing up and other probs not been possible.
My Love to you and your loving family xxxxx
Miss U xxxxxxxx
Hey bro, hows you? Feeling like I've had enough of certain people. Just dont understand why some people are so nasty, talk rubbish behind your back. I have so much respect for myself, I havn't done anything wrong, yet Im getting the blame. You know exactly whats been going on, out of everyone, you have seen everything, I just wish u were here to stick up for me. I just cant believe everything that has happened. I feel like i cant win! It's so frustrating, all I've ever done is care about people, yet all I get in return is being accused of things that I havn't even done. It hurts so much. As I have so much respect for myself. Just wish u were here. Want all this hurt to stop. I just feel like running away from it all.
Love you big bro xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Miss you so much xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Love U Bro xxx
Love u my gorgeous brother, watch over me today, been feeling low lately. Im sure u can see this. Just close my eyes, think of us four growing up together and it makes me smile. Being the baby sister with two gorgeous sisters who I wanted to be when I grew up and a handsome bro that kept me safe, protected me and made me feel so special. Thinking of you all the time. I miss you so much, but I know you havn't gone anywhere. You are still in my heart all the time and will be forever. I love you xxxxxx Baby Sis xxxxxxx
