Danielle was the daughter of Tracy Reid and Stanley Wells Jnr.
Tracy moved Danielle away from her family and friends to live with her new boyfriend Lee Gaytor in
Inverness, Tracy then lost contact with everyone from her home area,and little Danielle had no
option of any form of contact with her daddy,grandparents,aunts,uncles,cousins,half brothers and
half sisters.
Danielle's short life came to an abrupt end when her mother's lover savagely beat her and threw her
down a flight of stairs.
Danielle survived the attack for at least two hours but Reid failed to get any medical help and left
her to die in her room.
Later, she put her daughter's body in a suitcase weighed down with rocks and tiles and chatted
casually to her boyfriend's brother as she went to hurl it into the Caledonian Canal.
Lee Gaytor's brother Christopher had been drinking alongside Reid's Mothers partner. As midnight
neared on Hogmanay, he suddenly blurted out that Lee had "done in the bairn". The man made him
repeat the allegation in front of a doorman before calling the police.
Tracy and Lee later gave various and conflicting stories about the little girl's last hours, but it
seems Lee - probably under the influence of drugs - beat the girl while alone in the house with her.
Tracy returned to find her daughter wounded but alive, but did not act to save her. They then
enlisted Chris to help dispose of the body.Within days Tracy, Lee and Chris were all in custody, and
Chris had led the police to the spot where they had dumped Danielle's body
Danielles little body was recovered three months later in a suitcase in the Caledionian Canal in
Inverness, her little body was beyond identification
Charges were brought against all three involved in Danielles death ~
Lee Gaytor : 15 years for Murder
Tracey Reid : 8 years for failing to get medical help
and perverting the course of justice.
Christopher Gaytor : 18 months for perverting the course of justice by helping to dispose of the
body.
Yet again this is a tragic case of yet another individual " being let down by the system "
Rest in peace Danielle, you have touched the hearts of so many people, you are loved and missed each
and every day
XX LOVED ALWAYS, NEVER FORGOTTEN XX

Danielle u have touched my heart today i cried when i red ur story justice will never be done for a life of such a beautiful girl ur now with the angels up there xxxx
God saw that you were suffering
And helpless as can be
So he took you gently in his arms
And whispered, little one come with me
I will take you far away from here
To a place where you are free
from the pain and hurting
Up in Heaven with me
A place when you can play again
And be loved eternally.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!
When the blazing sun is gone,
When He nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Then the traveler in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eyes,
Till the sun is in the sky.
As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark,—
Though I now know what you are,
You're my Angel, little star.
9TH MARCH 2009
♥..Eternity Awaits Us..♥
I see your face
And time slips away
Back to the days when I was young and happy
And full of hope
Finding my way in the world
Looking for a girl like you
To make my dreams come true
All the hard work deservese a reward
No point in slogging your guts
If you have no one to share the good times with
Preparing for the future
Bringing up a family
Taking on responsibilities we never dreamt of
Building a new future
With our children and their friends
Time passes so quickly
Take time out to enjoy ourselves
Trips abroad and precious memories
Tales to keep us warm at night
And memories to tell the grandchildren
School comes and goes and university is around the corner
Retirement approaches on the horizon
A cruise in the Caribbean or trip around the world
You are only as young as you feel
Eventually time runs out
And I leave you all alone
As I pass into another world
Hope to meet you soon
Enjoy what life remains.

A candle to remember, may it burn ever so bright
As we look to the heavens on this very night.
Beyond the stars, our dear Danielle soars
Embraced by her Savior on heaven's shores.
As the angels protect her and sing her sweet name
We honour her life with the glow of this flame.
So we light this candle for our Danielle tonight
As a symbol of our love and her eternal life.

Tribute For This Weekend

I Love And Miss Him So Much.
Thanks again Angela X
Love is like a butterfly;
It goes where it pleases
And pleases wherever it goes.
The best and most beautiful
Things in the world cannot
Be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart
The Watcher
You always leaned to watch for us
Anxious if we were late,
In winter by the window,
In summer by the gate.
And though we mocked you tenderly
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more safe,
Because you waited there.
Your thoughts were all so full of us,
You never could forget,
And so I think that where you are
You must be watching yet.
Waiting ‘til we come home to you
Anxious if we are late
Watching from Heaven’s window
Leaning from Heaven’s gate.
To Those Whom I Love and Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that I have had so many years
I gave you my love, you can only guess
How much you gave me in happiness
I think you for the love each have shown
But now it is time I traveled on alone
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for a while that we must part
So bless the memories in your heart
I will not be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you can not see or touch me,
I will be near and if you listen with your heart,
You will hear all of my love around you
Soft and clear then, when you must come this way alone I will greet you with a smile and a
"Welcome Home"
Friends Are Like Angels,
Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways.
Their thoughtfulness comes,
As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.
Like upside-down rainbows,
Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun.
Friends are like angels,
Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious thing
Thoughts Today Memories Forever
Angela(Christopher-John Rowe)Mum

My true love, my angel, I have finally found,
You are the reason my heart begins to pound.
You are my soul, you are my heart,
I know forever we will never apart.

In My Mind
by Jenn Farrell
Somewhere in my dreams tonight
I'll see you standing there
You look at me with a smile
"Life isn't always fair"
You say you were chosen for his garden
His preciously hand picked bouquet
"God really needed me,
That's why I couldn't stay"
It's said to be that angels
Are sent from above
I've always had my angel
My brother - whose heart was filled with love
Wherever the ocean meets the sky
There will be memories of you and I
When I look up at that sky so blue
All I see are visions of you
"While there's a heart in me, you'll be a part of me."

My Best Friend
by Athena
Once was here
now is gone
I will always
love forever
the laughs
the tears
the smiles
without her
my life has no direction
no ups nor downs
no smiles or frowns
I miss her
I cry
I see her
I lie
what ever went wrong
I can mend
I will always
love forever
my very best friend
