Jimmy i am so so sorry for what happend your my couson and i am going to miss you so much i hope that barry and margret are ok and i am just so sorry rip Jimmy we are all going to miss you so much xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Treasure always, the courage and fine principles of this young man. What an appalling waste of life through the incomprehensible actions of a young fool. My heart goes out to his poor family and friends.

My thoughts and prayers are with Jimmy's family and friends at this terrible time. May he rest in peace.

To the parents of young Jimmy, I do not know you, but am so sorry for your loss, he sounds such a lovely young man, treasure your memories, you are in my thoughts.

To My Mizen family, Our hearts thoughts and prayers are with you, all the way from somerset, we are so sorry. from your Whiskin Family! Jimmy,Rest in Peace darling.from all your family down here in somerset ****

I did'nt know Jimming and i dont know his family but my thoughts are with you all. I think the boys that done this to jimmy are the most evilest people on this planet. All because Jimmy was the bigger person and stepped away from a fight. Jimmy had his whole life ahead of him so many things to do and achive. See the people that go around killing others obviously have no future. My thoughts are with Jimmys family RIP JIMM

I didn't know Jimmy either but am so touched by the bravery of his mother and family. Darling boy he never realised that he had won the lottery already to have been surrounded by such love. May he rest in peace in a better place and may his murderer give themselves up to the police to save his family further heartache.

Sincere condolences to the poor family of this lad. You've shown yourselves to be truly courageous, thoroughly decent people and you didn't deserve this awful tragedy. It'd be nice to think that poor Jimmy's death (like all the others before him) would force the Government and other authorities to act decisively but Gordon Brown and his ilk are too busy looking after themselves to care about the lives of our young people. As for the parents of the all the young thugs involved in this sort of thing, when are they going to accept their share of the responsibility for the actions of their offspring?

Another complete waste of a young life. Rest in Peace.

This is so tragic. I have left home this morning feeling empty and thinking of how on earth people can do this. I hope sincerely that justice will be done for Jimmy and all other kids that have lost their life too soon due to all this useless violence. I do wish his family my deepest sympathy.

ROP Jimmy Absolutly horrific amd i hope the person that done this gets hung and torchured, ppl like him do not deserve to live!! why take away a life of such an innocent and honest soul! i dnt even know jimmy but i feel devistated for his family and friends that cared about him. i walk pass the scene daily and feel sick to my stomache that this is truly the world we live in! full of scum... its sick, someone do something... i am setting up a protest to whom ever wabts to join for the government to do something, to those interested contact me by email, something needs to be done

My thoughts and prayers go to Jimmy's family and friends at this terrible time. You sounded a lovely lad. RIP xx

My thoughts and prayers are with Jimmy's family and friends. R.I.P Angel Love Paula,Amy,Emily,Will iam,Joshua,April and Lily x x x

God Bless you Jimmy. May He bring comfort to your family's broken hearts. You'll never be far from them I know. Bless you all.

To Jimmy's family My heart goes out to you and you are in my prayers. I pray that Jesus the prince of peace will comfort you the way that only He can as this tragic theft of life is almost unimaginable and must be so painful for you. I used to work at St Thomas More RC school a year ago however I'm not sure if I met Jimmy but his face does seem familiar to me. It breaks my heart that such wickedness and evil exists amongst people in this world. Again I pray that God's peace be with you.

Rest in peace Jimmy, my thoughts are with your parents, family, and friends. God bless.

R.I.P JIMMY YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS AND WILL BE VERY MISSED XX

My heartfelt condolences to Mr and Mrs Mizen and his Brothers and Sisters - what a lovely boy he seemed and what a brave Mother and Father they have. God Bless.

RIP Jimmy, my thoughts go out to all your family at this sad time. Let's hope someone somewhere can find a solution to this ever growing problem and stop innocent lives being taken away.

R.I.P Jimmy, It is a tragedy what has happened. Society as a whole needs to come together and eradicate this violence Im just sorry that this will not bring Jimmy back. God bless, sleep well.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx

I cried when I heard the news on Saturday another young life taken. I have a 16 year old son who has been mugged 3 times. I prayed for you Jimmy and your family. If only our love and prayers could wrap their arms around your family to ease their pain. Your every mothers son Jimmy, Our hearts are breaking. You will never have the chance to fulfil your dreams and aspirations, But, Please God, Your death will change the world and start to make a difference for the better. We have had enough of living in fear of bad things happening to good people. God has you in his keeping, We have you in our hearts. God Bless you all.****

To the Mizen family. I'm heartbroken for you all. Jimmy's life, though cut so short, was a beautiful, precious gift and you have so many wonderful memories of your time together. Your words and actions have been an inspiration - what a wonderful example you are to others. I can say little that can make a difference to your loss, but you have deeply affected me and so many others. Rest in eternal peace Jimmy and may God's peace be with you all. Amanda

I don't know the Mizen family, but I have just heard Danny on Radio 2. Hold on to each other and the love you all have, please don't let this terrible tragedy change your beautiful family. Cherish all your wonderful memories of Jimmy, and smile when you think of him. I'll light a candle for you all tonight.

Rest In Peace Jimmy. Such a tragedy at such a young age. I have two children of my own and there, but for the grace of God, go I. To the Mizen family - may you find peace and tranquility in your hearts at this terrible time - be strong for one another and be sure that Jimmy has gone straight to heaven - where all the angels go. Our thoughts and prayers are with each and every one of you. God Bless you all.

My grandmother was from the Mizen family she married a Sanders and so please accept my deepest sympathys from my side of the family.Our thoughts and prayers are with you all....God bless

Your angel has touched the lives of people who'll never have the pleasure of meeting him. I have two young sons who I have hugged so hard over the last few days. Ican only imagine what you are going through I heard Danny on R2 today and I heard Mum before - your courage, strength, love and beliefs are amazing. May you carry his love like a flame in your hearts forever. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, so sorry - words are not enough. I hope that I can give my sons the love, support and freedom to make their way in life like your family so obviously have. I am in awe.

To the Mizen family My heart goes out to you. He seemed like such a lovely young boy. I never new him however i did see him in Eltham a few times. He would never hurt a fly. He seemed like a gentle giant. I hope his killer is caught and punished just like Jimmy was. He is a hero and you should be proud. Jimmy: Hope you rest in peace up there. Your the brightest star in that sky and your family know that your watching them All my love Fran

Such a tragic loss of another young life. A true Christian family full of love whose light has shone out to the nation as an example of peace and understanding. My families prayers and thoughts are with you at his time.

I didnt know him, but may he rest in peace, my thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I didnt know Jimmy but I truly hope he rests in peace now he is in a better place. My heartfelt condolences go out to his mum dad and siblings. You have shown such courage in the way you are dealing with this horrific situation. Something needs to be done with broken Britain before another mother, father, brother or sister loses someone in their family. Three killings in London this week its disgraceful. Our government should be ashamed. Rest in Peace Jimmy ****

The Mizen family, Im ross iv only met you all just once, your my girlfriends family, Im so sorry for your loss, jimmy was a great lad full of love and the joys of life, this is such a sad tragedy. Keep the faith margaret barry, Jo Danny Billy Tommy Bobby Sammy, Harry and georgey he will always be with you in your hearts and memories, look up to the stars he will be watching you.Justice will be done. we love you all Ross

[bold]RIP Jimmy[/bold] ! I feel for his family and friends at this very sad time! Another senseless unprovoked attack on an innocent person. I hope the Police catch whoever did this, and the courts throw the book at that person/s. BRING BACK CAPITAL PUNISHMENT !!!!

Jimmy was in my daughters year at school and a good friend. She, like everyone that new Jimmy, has been devastated by his tragic death. My heart goes out to his mother, father, brothers and sisters. Your love, courage and faith are an inspiration to us all. May God cherish and comfort your family and keep Jimmy in his tender loving care. Rest in Eternal Peace Jimmy x

Jimmy's passing has affected so many people who didn't know him. The sheer horror of Saturdays events has spurred people to reach out to Jimmy's family and friends. Love and prayers are sent and offered. I am touched, like others, by the grace and courage of all The Mizen's. Danny Mizen speaking on radio 2 yesterday, invited people to mass on Saturday at the family church, even if you don't know the family. It would be nice to think that the power of collective prayer could make a difference to the family and the world, even strength in numbers of people showing up at church would not only let The Mizen family know they are not alone, we are with them, But, also send a peaceful message that we have had enough of the murders on our streets. Our Love and Prayers are with you and your family Jimmy.xxxxxxxxxxx

ANOTHER YOUNG LIFE LOST!!!! I NEVER KNEW JIMMY BUT HE SOUNDED LIKE SUCH A SWEET INNOCENT BOY. HE DID NOT DESERVE TO DIE. THERE ARE SO MANY MURDERS ON OUR STREETS THESE DAYS, JIMMY JUST HAD TO BE ONE OF THE UNFORTUNATE ONES WHO SIMPLY GOT CAUGHT UP IN SOMETHING THAT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED.

I am a mother of two sons, one the same age as Jimmy. My heart aches over this tragedy, the Mizen family are living my worst nightmare. We can guide and nurture our children, teach them values, be thankful they don't get in with the wrong crowd..... but ultimately we can't protect them from being in the wrong place at the wrong time. My love and prayers are with you all. Rest in peace Jimmy.

JIMMY I HOPE YOU REST IN PEACE NOW...I DONT KNOW YOU AND YOUR FAMILY BUT YOU ALL LOOK SO SPECIAL TOGETHER.....YOUR SAFE NOW LITTLE ONE !!!![italic]italic[/italic]

where are these crimes gonna end? 2 kids growin up into adults and as a mum scares me! RIP Jimmy xx

The loss of Jimmy has touched me deeply, a genuinely good guy, although I never had the priviledge to have known him. The Mizen family have displayed such dignity and such grace, they are an inspiration. You have my deepest respect, condolences and love. Chris

Jimmy, you were blessed with such a wonderful loving family. My heart felt prayers to you all at this tragic loss. I just wish this world could have been a better place for you. Rest in peace now in the Lord.

You have acted with such dignity, grace and courage in what must be your darkest times. If there where more families like yours I am sure this world would be a better place. To all of Jimmy's family, friends and all at St Thomas Moore School my heart goes out to you all. x x

R.I.P Jimmy

I cry every time I read about this terrific young boy and his amazing family. I too have a 16 year old son, another gentle giant, and I cannot imagine the pain his family must be going through. I hope they know how many people are thinking of them. What a fantastic family, what a terrible tragedy. Rest in peace, and know you were loved Jimmy.

My heart goes out to the family of Jimmy. I cry every time i see the picture of that fine lovely young man. May the scum bag that took your short life rot in hell.

I admire you all tremendously and have used your story with the students I teach at school. I have been thinking you all throughout.

Darling Jimmy, You should have officially been leaving school on the 27 june looking forward to the next stage of your life, Instead, Your funeral will be taking place on the 20th. I think of you and your family often, every time my 16yr old goes out. I never knew you or your family, Yet, Your have a place in my heart sweet boy. You will never be forgotten. I've said prayers and shed tears for you and for all of us living in these uncertain times. I'm glad you were in this world, If only for 16 short years, You were loved and always will be. I hope your funeral is a celebration of the love and joy you gave to all that knew you. May your family draw strength from each other and our faith. God Bless you Jimmy, You live on in our hearts.xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxx

Have just watched Jimmy's parents on BBC Sunday Life. What an amazing family they must be, and what memories they must have about Jimmy.Hopefully, as they said, it will be time for the pendulum of violence to swing back the other way and bring safety back to the streets of England.

hi mr and mrs mizenjust to say very sorry for your loss hope the get the person who did this to your good looking boy our thoughts are with you at this time from jenny and colin bertie

my condolences to all family and friends who have lost loved ones to crimes and acts of ruthlessness like young jimmy mitzen,i fear for my 10 year old son to grow up in the streets of london and in a community that does not have a reputation of being a nice inner city place but of a place most would not step outside after a certain time because of youths taking over and getting away with sickening things,im a mum of 2 and am o28 but yet i feel shut in after dark and is afraid to mtake a stand and tell theese cowards and thugs wot they should be doing to make london a better and enjoyable place to live and bring our children up as respectable human beings and not blood thirsty animals.lc from downham.
