I grew up in Lee I left there in 1974 aged 14, I lived in Woodstock Court and we used to buy our bread and cakes in that bakers then called Clarks. It has really upset me to think that you have lost your beautiful son, I too have a son and two daughters and my heart truly goes out to you and your family, no one can imagine what you are all going through, god bless you and your family.

My son is in Year 7 as STM School, and we attended the celebration of Jimmy's tragically short life at Sidcup Rugby Club this afternoon - what a lovely family the Mizens are.
God Bless you, Jimmy. You're in safe hands now.

Hi Jim
I'll never forget you, and although it's a bit cliche I won't forget drama and the time I had with you there, you've always been such a funny and honest guy and I can't believe your gone
I miss you mate, and I think that your family are the best and from what I saw on Sunday they're a great laugh and I can see where you got it from.
Love you Jim

Dear Barry and Margaret and Family,
We have known Jimmy since he started at St.Winifreds and we are proud that he has been one of Daniel's friends throughout.
He was a lovely boy and as everyone says, always smiling. Jimmy spent his last night at our house celebrating Daniel's 16th birthday (which is 2 days after Jimmy's). I hope he told you that he enjoyed his birthday, and find some comfort that his last night was spent having a great time with over 60 of his school friends.
We will miss him and we will never forget him.xxxx

jimmy, it really is a tragic loss. Catriona reminded me recently how we used to sing to you Saint Jimmy by Greenday and you used to look at us like we were nuts. but now its true, you are a saint, even if not everyone knows about it yet. i didn't know you well but you were so loved. that much is obvious. your family have been so amazing.
but for me it has re-awoken my catholic faith. i gave it up for so long but now im proud to have it back. so thankyou saint jimmy. one day cat and I will sing it to you again (and i will learn the words properly i swear.)And you will smile and we will know it is true.
R.I.P. Have a party and all that. you deserve it.

have 2 children 1 above jimmys year 1 below. live a few minutes from where it happened.both of them used to get off at the bus stop with jimmy. we all walk past or drive past where it happened and say a little prayer. can't imagine what you are going through. you are a tremendous family.
god bless all of you.

Jimmy was a lucky lad to have had such wonderful brothers,sister and parents. Please all keep remembering that. He probably had and gave more love in his short life than many people have in a lifetime. You all made him very happy, secure and blessed through your love, faith and the example you set him. I hope you can get some bit of comfort from knowing that your love for Jimmy was such a daily gift and none of you could have done more. Every one of you kids are amazing and you will be the greatest help to mum and dad through these dark days. God Bless

The courage of the Mizen family has been the most impressive example of human reason and the ability to be better and strive to improve society that I have come across in a long time.

I dont know what to say through my tears; If this upsets me, I have no idea how the family must feel; So so so Wrong what happened to Jimmy; A day after his 16th Birthday with his life ahead of him; I joined the Facebook group today and looked at the photos ; Such a caring, loving, popular young man; All I can say is that nobody can hurt him anymore; His in a far far better place than this Earth and the day will come when you, his family and young friends, will meet him again never again to be parted; Huge hugs to the family of this fine young man; To his friends, as I put on Facebook,; Jimmy is only a thought away just as my cousin is to me; God Bless you All;

Our litle son - also a James - was born on the same day you lost your James - on May 10th this year. Maybe a part of your James was reborn in ours. I hope so. That would make me very proud.

Jimmy's story has effected my life more than i could ever imagine, eventhough i never had the pleasure of meeting him. From what i've heard he was an absolute angel to all his family and everyone that knew him.
All my love and prayers to the Mizens x

Wow, what an inspiration you are to all. Your loss is so tremendous and you are such an example to all of society.

Dear Margaret and Barry - I have just watched you both on this morning, you were inspirational, beautiful people. I am so sorry for your loss and can only look on and admire the way in which you both choose to try and go forward.

I've just seen Jimmy's parents on This Morning, and they are fantastic! They seem to be really focussing on the time they had with Jimmy, instead of dwelling on his tragic loss. It's so easy when you lose someone so special to get caught up in grief, but from what I have read about Jimmy I can tell that's not what he would have wanted. Congratulations to you both, on raising such a lovely boy, and for coping so well with his loss.

I also saw Jimmy's parents on This Morning and I too think there were fantastic. I have striven to be respectful to all people and would love to be involved in a respect initiative, set up by people who care about the society that we live in. I live in a little village in Dorset and we have some wonderful youngsters who care about their village, it is a shame some of the adults don't respect them or other adults around them. I know you are trying to raise money for Jimmy's Bus but if you have a web address that you could gather together like minded people I would love to join you.
God bless and hold you all

I've always privately thought of you as an Earth Mother, Margaret, and now I know it's true. The way you speak about your family is beautiful. Stay strong. You and Barry and the family are in our thoughts often.

i did,nt know jimmy or his family but i don,t think you had to, all you had to do was hear these truly amazing people speak with such courage and dignity after the terrible loss of their son jimmy to know this is a truly special family and when you look at a picture of jimmy you can see the kindness and gentleness shine out ,i have never felt as compelled to write anything in my life as i have this and i do it with tears rolling down my face ,their is alot of talk of makeing the streets a safer place i don,t know if this will happen i hope and pray it does but what i do know for sure is if their was more jimmy mizens in this world and less of the youth,s that think nothing of taking a life the world would be a much better place to live in. God bless you jimmy and your beautiful family x

After seeing Jimmy's parents on This Morning I wanted to write and thank them for their courage and their positive message. I wanted to let you know about a wonderful organisation called BigPinkHeart which is a social enterprise organisation run by volunteers who are committed to raising awareness about positive social behaviour. They have designed events for primary and senior schools which are fun, educational and help to raise money for good causes/charities. BigPinkHeart also wants to work within communities bringing people together and encouraging people to be respectful to each other AGAIN. Please check out their website at www.bigpinkheart.com. Join them and together we can all make a positive change. God Bless you Mr and Mrs Mizen and your family

We have known Jimmy's family for a number of years through his brother at the rugby club they are one of the best familes I know and it makes me proud the know them for their courage and the way they are speaking about respect for others and making our country a safer place for the young people.
We thank them for this and surpport their actions in the memory of their wounderful son JIMMY.
We will be at the rugby match in september to remember him
I saw the "This Morining" programme and admire you for doing this to make more people aware.
God bless you and the whole family

something has to be done about this knife crime issue; I know I'm not the first to mention this and I'm adamant that I won't be the last. Please DO Something Now... AND I MEAN NOW!

Dear all, I attended Jimmy's funeral and thought I could be of some support; I did not know Jimmy or his family, but wish to convey my love and sincere sympathy. I am a Catholic myself and wish to express that he was a good looking, tall and handsome boy who had a whole life ahead and a future, but sadly had it taken away; if I am right I believe that he was someone who wanted to make peace and try to resolve situations when there was an incident or dispute at the "Three Cooks" which unfortunately costed his life. I sometimes think if I would like to resolve such matters, but if it's serious I'd rather step aside or otherwise I could put myself at risk! This is what happens today! We would all like to help as much as we could, but it is not always easy. I can only pray and that Jimmy is at Gods peace and that his family and friends will find happiness, love and healing from their loss. To pray for his killer is also not easy, but through Christ there is hope and that he will show us the way with a heart to forgive. May my love, condolences and prayers be with the family and friends. God bless you and Jimmy

Barry and Margaret the love you have for each other and GOD your faith and belief not only radiates and engulfs your entire family but it has captured the nations attention. Someone said jimmy the saint.It has to be said that Jimmy's death at such a sweet young age has captured the nations heart and I believe that the love in your hearts has squashed any bitterness you may feel for the loss of your beautiful boy and the love and joy in your hearts shines thru, just as jimmy the brightest star in the sky. Jimmy's name will live on and keep you both strong in faith and belief, GOD will take care of Jimmy and you all, I believe this is only a temporary separation and the day will come when you all meet again and light up the sky. My heart goes out to you both and your lovely family. I think about you every day and pray for your strength and courage, thank you for your selfless campaign and the fantastic jimmybus, go the Mizens.... Society needs more of you.....
