To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the arson attack in Ballymoney which killed three young Quinn brothers – Richard, Mark, and Jason – on 12th July 1998, WAVE presented the family with a plaque for the cemetery with this poem written by their Mother:-
My Three Candles
Richard, Mark and Jason
My HEART still aches in sadness
My secret tears still flow
For what it meant to lose you all
No-one will ever know
Remembering you all is easy
I do it every day
It’s the heartache of losing you
That will never go away
Time may have passed from losing you
But time froze for me the day you died
Now all I have is memories
And your pictures in a frame
Though your memories are a keep sake
With which I will never part
You are my precious boys
And remain living in my heart
Richard, Mark and Jason, Mummy and brother Lee love you all very much.
In Remembrance from WAVE Trauma
