Happy birthday Liam
Today we celebrate you. Even though you’re no longer here with us in the way we wish you were, your presence is still felt everywhere, in the music you made, in the laughter you shared and in the countless lives you touched. It feels surreal to think of birthdays now, knowing you’re not here to blow out candles or smile at the love pouring in but we celebrate you anyway. We celebrate your life, your light and the incredible legacy you left behind.
Since October, the world hasn’t been quite the same. The news of your passing shook us all to our core and there isn’t a day that goes by where you aren’t missed. But with that grief comes gratitude, gratitude for every memory, every performance, every moment you gave of yourself so freely. You gave us music that healed, lyrics that spoke truth and a voice that carried so much strength and emotion. You taught us resilience, kindness and the importance of being unapologetically yourself.
On your birthday we remember the joy you brought into the world. The way you could light up a stage with your energy or make someone smile with just a few words. The way you cared for your fans, for your family and for your friends, it was real and it was deeply felt. Your heart was huge Liam and that love is something we’ll carry with us forever.
Happy birthday Payno. You may not be here to see the candles but your light still burns brighter than ever. Thank you for everything you gave us. We love you, we miss you and we’ll keep you alive in our hearts forever.
Always in our hearts.
