Courtney Marie Crockett

I am setting up this memorial page in ever loving memory of my darling niece Courtney Crockett who
passed away sadly after being subjected to beatings from her mothers partner at the age of 3 years.
I would like to mension my special brother Paul Courtneys daddy and also my dear mum Carole and my
dad Ken Courtneys nanna and grandad who miss Courtney hugely just as I and all Courtneys family do.

Courtney was born on the 18th February 2001 and sadly passed away on the 5th January 2005. Courtney
was such a fun loving little girl who was much loved and liked by everyone that knew her. Courtney
was a chatterbox and loved to chat away to anybody and although they did not know her she always
managed to make them smile or laugh.

Courtneys story is a very sad one and im sure it will touch many people in different ways.

At the beginning of January 2005 my mother carole recieved a phone call from Courtneys mother
telling her that Courtney had been taken to hospital, (My brother and Courtneys mum had split up
some months before and she was living with someone else who was not Courtneys father as my brother
Paul is and always will be Courtneys daddy).

Courtneys mum told my mum that Courtney had been in a accident and had bumped her head and was
fitting and to make her way to the hospital with my brother Paul. When they arrived at the hospital
Courtney was being looked at by doctors so my mother and brother had to wait to see her. When they
where finally allowed to see her they where shocked at the injuries Courtney had. My mother asked
Courtneys mum what had happened and she was told Courtney had fell over a carpet.

The injuries Courtney had where that serious she had to be rushed to another hospital to be cared
for. My mum went along to the hospital with Courtney followed shortly after by my brother Paul.
Courtney had over 100 different injuries on her body. Courtneys mum and her new partner where taken
into police custody and questioned in regards to what had happened to Courtney.

Courtney had fluid on the brain and was in a coma for 2 days while in hospital as well as the other
injuries she had and passed away from brain damage on the 5th January 2005.

Police questioned both Courtneys mum and her partner and both where sentanced. Courtneys mum charged
with Neglect and Cruelty and her partner Manslaughter and Cruelty and Neglect.

Courtneys mum was sentanced to 3 years in prison and her partner 10 years. The sentances we feel are
not long enough from what poor Courtney went through.

Courtney is hugely missed by her family and her friends and will never be forgotton. Thinking of you
lots now and for always.

Courtney we love you ever so much and we always will, You will always remain close to our hearts and
forever in our thoughts.

Good Night God Bless Sweetheart, Have lots of fun playing up above in gods garden with all the other
little angels.

Thank you everyone for your tributes and your candles, it means a lot to myself and my family.
Please feel free to light a candle for Courtney and leave tributes too.

Would you please also visit a special memorial page set up by two special ladies Carole and Janet in
memory of all the other children who suffered from cruelty, Please just type The flowers in gods
garden in the search bar on the gone too soon home page and light a candle for the hurt angels.

Thank You!
