From the moment she could walk,
she took herself off to play and explore
and she was always the child everyone else wanted to play with.
Her kind and caring nature just welcomed everyone in
from such a young age.
She had such a high level of emotional intelligence.
Elsie absolutely will continue to make a difference to this world
because of her pure and kind heart.
She always did what made her happy
and she would want you to continue her happiness in your hearts.
Farmer Road will never be the same without Elsie.
But the memories that the children have
are incredibly special and touching.
Their memories speak volumes
and describe Elsie in ways that singular words can’t.
She truly was one of a kind. Elsie.
We have so many special memories of our happy times with you.
We will cherish these forever.
It’s hard to put into words just how much we will all miss you,
Elsie dot. You will always hold such a special place in our hearts.
It is my privilege to speak today on behalf of Messiside Police,
North West Ambulance Service and Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service,
whilst honouring the life of your daughter Elsie.
Through the many acts of kindness and solidarity.
It is evident that Southport is not just a place,
it is your home. And it will forever be Elsie’s home.
I hope the warmth and care shown by neighbours,
friends and the emergency services
remind you that you and Your extended family are not alone.
Elsie, Bebe and Alice will be forever in our hearts.
