Thankyou for posting that Janet. :-)

Yesterday I went for a walk with my friend but the road to the moors appeared to be longer than I had thought so we decided to go back to the car and drive so that we could overlook the reservoir and eat our sandwiches.

As we parked we noticed lots of flowers across the road. Each bunch of flowers appeared to have a message. We noticed a couple of toys and and some rosary beads. As we ate our sandwiches we speculated about the flowers thinking that someone, a child maybe must have had an accident on this difficult stretch of road.

Another car parked up and the man got out and then took photos. Another couple of young men sat in their car as if they were preoccupied with the flowers. When we finished our break we decided to look at the flowers. I read the first message ......and then saw it said .....To Winnie

Unfortunately Channel 4 are still showing the programme on Monday at 9pm in their listings.

Wonder if they will actually show it

Dear All

Hello

RIP Winnie, reunited with your precious Keith now. God bless you and your family. xxxxxxxxx

Rest in Peace Winnie.
You must have suffered so dreadfully, but you always believed that you would be with your son Keith and he lived in your heart.
No one could possibly have done more than you.
Bless You

Bridget

Rest Now Winnie, your fight will continue, you have family that will see it through and you will be reunited with Keith. God bless.

Apparently, Winnie had no idea at all about this supposed letter, and all the publicity surrounding it. She was well out of it when the news broke, and Brady was wasting his time even if he had pinpointed spot in letter.

What a lovely thread this has been. Many thanks for giving us a chance to leave our thoughts, Rose :-)

Very very sad!!
Wisechild...that would be great!

RIP Winnie.

RIP Winnie

Was the letter of her son´s burial place just another wind up from Brady to torment her at the end of her life. It´s a shame nobody put a bullet in Brady´s brain years ago as he has now tormented this woman for her whole life. Brady shouldn´t be alive.

R.I.P.

YOU WAITED SO LONG TO FIND YOUR LOVELY SON,

I REALLY HOPE YOU ARE NOW TOGETHER IN HEAVEN . :-( :-(

And I think that is what the supposed letter is about, it does not exist and he just wants the attention and as you say John he should not get any at all ever.

On the phone in programme on Radio Wales, one expert said that Brady needed to stay in control. He needed bargaining tools to get what he wanted, which was a highly publicised death. He wanted to be famous for being evil and wanted to have his own way. The woman had met Brady and he was not a man you could reason with or trust on anything. And no remorse or sympathy for his victims or their families to this day.

Well, now that Winnie has died, he cannot hold Keith's burial place up as a negotiation counter any more. He has had it. His hand has now been played. He is a wasted and evil little man. An absolute nonentity. And he deserves no publicity any more - alive or dead.

It would be lovely to see a huge show of affection for Winnie and her family at her funeral. I think it will happen. We have all felt for her for so many years.

Is this the end of a sad episode in UK family history or must we await the earthly demise of the culprit?

The desire to know & understand Mr Brady's thoughts has been the life-long work of a handful of qualified individuals empowered to work alongside him. Sadly, little progress was made after such an unimaginable length of time during which this respectable mother was forced to live the terrible unknown truth about her beloved child. No human being should be expected to endure such misery.

May mother & child rest in peace, if not in body, then spiritually together. RIP.”

Poor lady.

As a mum too .as lots of us are, its not possible to know her anguish. She wanted, as all of us would, to bury her child and know where he finally was,

I am sure lots of us would now the panic when we thought one of the children were missing so her anguish and loss must have been overwhelming. I look at our daughter and grandchildren and GRT grandchildren and thank GOD. Poor lady never knew the joy that her sons children would have given.

May she rest in peace and have been reunited with her son Keith

That sounds very comforting Dermot,

i really do hope she is at peace now!!

Flo,

At the time of passing it all went dark
But then came along a really bright spark
All around there was a blinding illumination
Not even a second for a thought of eternal damnation
Her boy probably came and said mom come hold my hand
Then he escorted her across to the lords Promised Land
He told her I was happy to wait for you many a long year
But now I rejoice in the fact you’ve come and are now here
Together again and never to part for the rest of all time
You did what you could because you are a mom you’re mine
Whether you believe in an almighty or whether you do not
For this loving mom and son, all the heartache is now forgot

Nothing can be said to make things any better now i,m afraid, damage as been done!!


What i will say is this! the wrong person suffered for this horrible crime, and she did not do it.!

But a lot can be said to prevent it happening again, stop this cushy sentence,s for a start, make it so uncomfortable in prison, to deter from doing crimes again.
boy ! it makes me so angry!! how that poor woman must have suffered.
people in the know must start doing something now, before this sort of thing happens again.
sorry had to get that off my chest.
Flo

She is at peace now, with her beloved son and out of that evil man's reach.

I too hope the documentary is cancelled on Monday out of respect for Winnie

May She Rest in Peace ....free at last <3
