In Memory of Helen Adcock |
|
|
|
|
Helen was a popular member of the Isle of Man Kart Racing Club, who was tragically taken from us at the last day of the 2005 Peel Grand Prix, during the practice setion before the finals. She was an experienced karter (competing on the island and in the UK for several years), a committee member, but above all, a friendly caring person whose smile will be sadly missed by all those who had the priviledge of meeting her.
Over the time that has passed since our loss of Helen, your kind words and thoughts have meant a lot, and your warmth and generosity that was shown was most appreciated at what was a very difficult time.
For those who wish to say goodbye to Helen, offer their condolences, or simply say a few words please feel free to use the condolence box below.

I miss Helen so
much... I hope
that this page
will be
somewhere that
everyone who
feels the same
as I, will be
able to gain
support from her
friends & family
Mary (16:46pm 28/07/05)
It's impossible
to believe we
won't see Helen
again. There is
no sense to what
has happened and
my thoughts are
with Tom
especially, who
Helen talked
about with so
much love.
Ascot will never
be the same.
Karen B (15:28pm 24/07/05)
To My Special
Friend
Friendship is a
special
gift,
Shared between
me and you.
Not only on a
special
day,
But the whole
year
through.
We have both had
our ups and
downs,
And got through
them in our on
way
For you are
always close in
mind
Each and
everyday
If I knew it
would be the
last time,
I could spare an
extra minute
to stop and say
"I love you,"
instead of
assuming you
would KNOW I do.
If I knew it
would be the
last time
I would be there
to share your
day,
Well I'm sure
you'll have so
many more,
so I can let
just this one
slip away.
For surely
there's always
tomorrow
to make up for
an oversight,
and we always
get a second
chance
to make
everything just
right.
But just in case
I might be
wrong,
and today is all
I get,
I'd like to say
how much I love
you
and I hope we
never forget.
Tomorrow is not
promised to
anyone,
young or old
alike,
And today may be
the last chance
you get to hold
your loved one
tight.
So if you're
waiting for
tomorrow,
why not do it
today?
For if tomorrow
never comes,
you'll surely
regret the day,
That you didn't
take that extra
time
for a smile, a
hug, or a kiss
and you were too
busy to grant
someone,
what turned out
to be their one
last wish.
So hold your
loved ones close
today,
and whisper in
their ear,
Tell them how
much you love
them
and that you'll
always hold them
dear
Take time to say
"I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive
me," "Thank
you," or "It's
okay."
And if tomorrow
never comes,
you'll have no
regrets about
today.
Whenever I
needed someone
to talk to
You were always
there
My eyes filled
with tears, my
heart filled
with pain
You were always
there.
Now your gone,
and I don’t know
what to do
I close my eyes
and think of you
and
How you were
always
there
Its hard to look
at pictures and
all those
memories of
you
I know one day
I’ll see you
again
But till then I
will have to say
goodbye
I still see your
face in my
dreams
It hurts and it
doesn’t help at
all
Even though it
hurts to hear
your name, and
speak of
you
One thing I will
say is
I will always
love forever my
very dear
friend.
Karen

Helen,
You may no
longer be with
us but the
memory of that
smile will
always remain.
Rest in peace

Having been in
hospital
recently I was
unable to come
to Peel this
year. However I
was made so
welcome last
year and one of
the best
experiences was
Helen's lovely
smile and bubbly
personality. I
was so sad to
learn this
news.

The Taylors (9:56am 18/07/05)
Hi Helen,
although our
friendship was
short it still
is very
memorable. We
first meet at
the dog club
where later your
lovely son Tom
started to show
my Archie, did
we have some
laughs. Later
on we became
good friends
both you and Tom
calling in to
see me and the
whippies, you
were there when
I needed you the
most, first with
Molly and the
puppies and then
when we lost
one, you were
there to cheer
me up.
But what I
remember the
most is the
Christmas dog
party where you
and I kept
throwing
ourselves on the
floor to prevent
the adults
beating the
children, did we
laugh and get
shouted at,
because deep
down we are both
big kids at
heart. As I am
writing this I
am chuckling to
myself, because
to this day I
can still
pictured the
both of us being
totally silly on
the floor.
Losing someone
is always
difficult but to
lose a true
friend is harder
but I know that
you will be
looking down on
all of us,
especially Tom
and watching
over him.
God Bless you.
All our love
Janetta and
Paul. XXXX
Woof, woof,
Archie, Molly,

J&M Morrow (22:30pm 17/07/05)

I have read
through the
tributes on this
site and I can

better (or more)
but add my
sincere
condolences to
her family and
friends
Ascot girls (21:39pm 13/07/05)
Helen has
visited us in
June for the
last few years,
for a trip to
Ascot. Always a
truly amazing
day and for all
of you who don’t
know, she looked
as fabulous in a
posh dress, as
she did in her
racing gear.
Helen would
almost always be
sporting an
injury from her
Karting
exploits,
generally some
amazing bruises,
or a sprained
finger or two.
She would always
be bussing about
the race meeting
she was going
home too. Sadly
we didn’t all
get together
this year as
Ascot was being
held in York. If
we had, we would
have seen her
only a few weeks
ago.... How we
wish we could
have said
goodbye. Helen
will be missed
so very much.
Helen, we loved
you so much and
will miss you
dearly. Our
deepest sympathy
to Helen's
family and
friends.
C & S Brown (21:36pm 13/07/05)
We have spent
many days
wondering how we
could put into
words and
express our
feelings about
our very
privileged
friendship &
love for
Helen…......A
truly wonderful
person who had a
passion and love
for so many
things. She
became a member
of our family
here in Coventry
and will be
missed dearly.
Our sincerest
sympathy to Sam
& his family
especially Tom
(her pride &
joy!!), to Gary,
Helens father
and family and
all of her many
friends. Good
night & god
bless Helen.
Treasured
memories....

Helen, wish we
had got to know
you better. We
knew you as a
kind and caring
mum to young Tom
as our son Sam
is the newest
cadet at Jurby.
Sure you will be
greatly missed
by all. Sincere
condolences to
all family and
friends.
Fielden (12:31pm 12/07/05)

know we are all
so proud
of.thinking of
you Sam and all
your and Helens
family and
friends.See you
at the dog club
Penny with Tom
when you both
decide to come.
Edwina (10:12am 09/07/05)
The first day I
appeared at
Karting to help
Helen was the
first to smile
that lovely
smile and say
hello. After
that she used to
come to my shop
regularly for a
cup of coffee,
and one day she
told me she so
loved Karting
she intended to
take her Kart to
Jurby school to
show the kids.
Sadly, she
didn't get the
chance, but I
know she would
hate it if
anyone was put
off the sport by
her tragic
accident, so
let's take the
club from
strength to
strengh as a
tribute to her.
Other than that,
Helen, I'll miss
you coming into
the shop and
I'll miss you at
Jurby. We all
will. God bless.
Eddy.
Andrew j (21:35pm 08/07/05)

accident, my
heartfelt
condolences so
Sam, Tom and all
of helens family
and friends.
Helen, you
always seemed to
have a smile on
your face even
when things
werent going
your way. You
enjoyed life and
put maximum
effort into
everything you
did, always had
time to stop and
say hello, and
had a positive
effect on
everyone you
met. Your face
will be sadly
missed at Jurby
Helen, but im
glad to have had
the privilage of
knowing you.
Hazel (22:52pm 07/07/05)
You will be
sadly missed by
all that knew
you. You were
always friendly,
full of life and

I can't begin to
express the
sympathy
extended to Sam,
Tom and the rest
of your family

shall miss you.

A Marshal (15:10pm 07/07/05)
Helen Adcock,
Racer and
Marshal
Earlier this
year we had
great pleasure
in spending a
sunny day sat by
the side of the
road at Killane,
enjoying the
first ARA road
race of the
year. The day
was made
memorable as,
besides the sun
shining for
once, the usual
marshalling gang
was joined by a
young lady
called Helen who
turned up with
her son, and
another two she
was minding for
a certain Mr
Crowe. She had
signed on to
marshal with us
as she knew we
were always in
need of people
who can help the
racers if
something
happens to them.
She fitted right
in with us
immediately,
chatting about
and laughing at
the antics of
the kids, about
kart racing, and
about the
possibility of
her having a go
as a sidecar
passenger later
this year. She
was funny and
full of life, a
genuinely nice
person. We
invited her to
join us again at
the July road
race. She said
she would, if we
signed on to
marshal the Kart
GP. So we did,
and a very
enjoyable time
we had too,
until Saturday
came. Fate would
have it that one
of the Killane
crew was on
station at
Heathfield Drive
that night, and
was given the
honour of saying
goodbye to Helen
for us all with
a wink and a
smile. Sorry we
won't see her
next week at
Killane, but
we'll be
thinking of her
when we sit at
the side of the
road. Our most
heartfelt
condolences to
Helens friends
and family,
especially to
the very
pleasant young
man she was
proud to call
her son.
The Killane
Marshals.
Graham (14:45pm 07/07/05)
Having raced at
Peel for the
last three years
I can say that I
found Helen to
be a very
friendly person
and a joy to
meet, who would
always have
enough time for
a chat.
Wayne Frees (14:05pm 07/07/05)
Helen, I will
miss your smile
and the great
chats we used to
have. You are
constantly in my
thoughts and I
will never
forget you. You
were one of the
boys and will be
missed.
chris m (12:48pm 07/07/05)
you will be
sadly missed
