Put one in the back of the net Rhys jones your a angel now with the best of them babe . Stay close to to your mum dad and family , lots of love sweetheart .

Rhys, your little boy face, beautiful, shining, like a flower turned toward the sun An innocent life lost, but your soul has overcome The world is sadly weeping but heaven burst with joy when it called forth this special, sweet boy. My heart of hearts tells me Your death was not in vain All will be well, all will be right And we all meet again. To rest you were laid, with love and sweet care, Your family, friends, strangers and angels were there To bid you goodbye into heaven's abiding love Forever to dwell with your Lord up above. Good night, sweet lad. Peace be with you. And may peace, comfort, love, mercy and prayers be with the Jones family always, everyday and may justice be done. xxoo MLR

RHYS JONES, ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS. STEVE, MEL AND OWEN ARE THOUGHTS ARE WITH YOU. WERE ALL ABSOLUTLY GUTTED, WERE ALL HERE FOR YOU. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I HAVE JUST WATCHED THE NEWS AND AS I HAVE BEEN THE PAST TWO WEEKS I AM HEARTBROKEN AGAIN I REALLY DO NOT KNOW HOW YOU ARE COPING WITH IT,I WATCH YOU AND WITH SADNESS IN YOUR EYES AND I FEEL FOR YOU ALL YOUR LITTLE ANGEL IS PLAYING FOOTBALL WITH THE ANGELS AND HE WILL BE CAPTIAN RYHS! GOODBLESS YOU ALL I HAD A MASS AT MY WORK TODAY AND I PRAYED FOR RYHS,SO SORRY XXX

I know you have had thousands of people write to you, but i wanted to add my thoughts, my heart goes out to you, as a mum of a 14 year old it sickens me to think that 'children' are responsible for your loss, I hope and pray you will eventually find some sort of closure and that the evil minds are brought to justice. My whole family send their thoughts of love and prayers, and can i also say how proud he will be of his freinds, they are such caring, inteligent, thoughtful boys,. take care, peace be with you love kate xxxxx

i seen you parents today rhys, i looked in there eyes, i seen there pain sweetheart , stay close to them babe. The people of liverpool turned out for you today to show you how much you have touched our hearts. Foever young and handsome little Rhys , goodnight babe and god bless you and all your family xxx.

Your little Prince will always be with you. He clearly is a very loved little man and having just watched the service live I thought it was beautiful. I myself lost my own little boy last year (he was stillborn) and know what pain is in my heart but I cannot imagine what pain you are all going through. You are doing so well and as well as can be expected and I just wanted to say how proud you must be making Rhys. Rhys is with all the other little angels now and I am sure that he will always be near you and will guide you through the hard times that may come. He seemed a very special little boy and I just hope that one day the pain from this tragedy will become lesser. The pain never, ever goes away (its with me everyday) but I find that there are days that I can now smile. Please stay close to eachother and love eachother. Love from the bottom of my heart to you all.xx

You're now up there playing footy with all the legends - You will always be remembered, especially by those closest to you You'll Never Walk Alone

Rhys may you rest in peace little man. Nobody deserves to die so young, the whole of Liverpool will be remembering you today.

Thinking of you day in day out. You've been hand pick for the best team of all, the angle's. Looking down on your family and friends and all the people you love, in there memories.

God Bless you little Rhys, in the arms of the angels now Strength be with you all at this awful time

MAY THE ANGELS ABOVE LOOK AFTER YOU AND MAY YOU PLAY IN THE FIELDS WITH THE GREAT PLAYERS OF THE PAST REST IN PEACE ....

My deepest sympathies to all the family. I can't even begin to think how you must feel. The little Blue boy loved the beautiful game, losing a fellow fan is such a shame. Now he's up there in the great marble hall and i guarantee you..he'll be dribblin' a ball. To his family and friends, always be proud 'coz your little blue soldier is lookin' down through a cloud. Y.N.W.A.

Rhys was a credit to you all and Liverpool has lost a little character who loved life and football. Rhys will live on in all our hearts he will never be forgotton. Out thoughts and prayers are with you.

A very special Angel hand picked to play for that special team, way above all others! Look down on your Mum, Dad, Owen and all your family and friends Rhys, keep them safe and give them the strength to go on. You will be sadly missed babe even by people you never knew, the good people of Liverpool and afar, the bad ones are a minority and we can only hope that some of them will see sense in your loss and turn their lives around. RIP Little One XXXX

To Rhys family, as a big unitd fan you can imagine everton and liverpool are not my favourite places, but i am a red from manchester so you cant have a go!! Ijust want to express my heartfelt sympathy for you at this awful time in your lives, football is a strange thing it brings so many people together for all sorts of different reasons but i hope that you can pull strenth from every football fan in the country as when things like this happen you are not just a fan of your team but part of the bigger picture and i am sure that every fan in this country who truly supports football for the love of the game sends you all there love. My children are 9 and 5 and love stockport county and my 5 year old little boy thought Rhys had a county shirt on and said he looks a good player mummy is he playing on saturday well im sure he will be playing on saturday with all the other great players in the sky, just try not let him score past georgie best, god bless x x x
