Joe Richard Brundish, taken from us cruelly & suddenly on 16 September 2007, aged 8 years & 10
months.
Our wonderful son Joe had a difficult few early years before he was diagnosed as autistic and then
started to receive the understanding of others. The start of 2007 was the start of a brand new
exciting life for Joe - he moved to a new house with a big garden, started a new school and in March
2007 his baby brother Ash arrived! All big big changes for a child with autism but Joe took to his
new home, school & baby brother with enthusiasm. In a short space of time he made many friends and
came to adore little Ash - even changing nappies!
His future seemed so bright but over just one awful week in September 2007 all of this was cut
short. Misdiagnosed as having tonsillitus, he spent a week off school and went to hospital on the
evening of Friday 14 September with suspected meningitus. By the early hours of Saturday we learned
he had Leukaemia and by the early hours of Sunday, our darling Joe B had lost his fight for life,
aged 8 years & almost 10 months old.. Acute Myeloid Leukaemia stole you away from your mum, dad &
baby brother Ash (then aged 5 months), family & friends. We miss you every single day.
Darling Joe, you should be running around with your little brother now. He's 18 months old and looks
just like you. You'd be getting excited to be a big boy 10 years old in November. I miss you so
much, I look at your photo before I go to sleep at night and when I wake in the morning. I love you
so much Best Boy.

I lost my son , i hear myself say
and the person im talking to just turns the other way
Now why did i tell them i dont understand
it was'nt for sympathy or to get a helping hand
I just wanted to tell them i lost something SO DEAR
I wanted them to know that my son was here
So if i upset you im sorry has can be
you will have to forgive me
i could not resist
I just wanted you to know that my son did exist
JOE BRUNDISH
My heartfelt condolences to joe's dear family such a sad story all my love to you all xxxxxxxxxx
Happy birthday Joe, hope your partying in heaven, love to your family, Julie (victoria amy langley mum) x x xx
There is always a face before us,
A voice we would love to hear,
A smile we will always remember,
Of the one we love so dear,
We cannot bring the old times back ,
When we were all together,
But those we loved dont go away,
They walk with us forever.xxx
For Joe's mum
People say they’re sorry
And they mean it from the heart
But to understand your heartache
They couldn't even start
To have a loss that you have had
Is too much to understand
We see it and we feel for you
But it's only second hand
You’re the ones who are suffering
And we’re the ones who care
But if there is anything we can do
Call us, we'll be there
Love from Liz Stuart Maxwell's mum
Sometimes its hard to understand,
Why certain things must be,
And the reasons why they happen,
Are often hard to see,
Flowers and leaves may wither,
The evening sun may set,
But the hearts that truly love you,
Are the ones who won't forget.
xxxx
Memories of a special boy
Although we never knew each other Joe your story touched my heart. Like your mummy I too have a son named Edward who is autistic and he is amazing just like you would have been.
You passed away from such a terrible disease a day after my father passed from cancer. What a brave little man you were. A gentle spirit at rest and looking over his parents and baby sibling. Rest in Peace Joe xxx
