Martin Beard was my younger brother. He has 2 sisters, myself and Rachael Beard.

He was only 20 and was taken from us very young but doing a job he loved. He was a brave soldier, a
member of the Number 1 Squadron, a proud RAF Gunner. Martin was killed in action serving his country
in Basra, Iraq.

He was a loving member of the Tutin family, a real family man and dedicated to his fiancee Nic, who
he was due to be married in June 08.

I will remember Martin as witty, caring and loveable. He was always there to cheer you up when you
were down. He always knew what to say for the best.

I will never forget our many Christmas and evenings together playing games and laughing so much I
ached the next day. The nights out in Town and again laughing so much we cried.

It is always said they take the good young, in my dreams I hope he is at peace with our Mother
Freda, who departed this Earth 10years ago and we will meet again.

We all love and miss you Martin x x x

RIP Martin

TO MY LOVING FAMILY XX

I'm with you
When you hear a bird sing,
I'm there
For each raindrop that falls,
think of me
And the love that we'll
always share

In the rush of the wind
feel my touch
In the quiet of night
hear my voice
If you start to stumble
take my hand
And know that it was
my choice

When tears start to fall

feel my comfort
If you feel low

share my pride
Don't ever think that

you've lost me
For I will always be

there by your side

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
