Dee Edwards, a co-founder of campaign group Mothers Against Murder and Manslaughter, said Mrs Regan
would visit schools and give talks about the dangers and consequences of getting involved in crime
and carrying weapons.
Mrs Edwards said: "She's made such a big difference to so many people's lives. This is an absolute
tragedy for so many people."

Mrs Edwards said she had known Mrs Regan for about six years and was shocked by the news of her
death.

She said: "It's just the most dreadful news for everyone. She's just an amazing woman. She was the
most incredible woman. We just love her to bits, she's just an incredible lady, I just can't take
this in.

"She's open, she's honest, she's got a massive heart, she helped so many people."

In reaction to the news, Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said: "I was extremely shocked and saddened to
hear about the tragic death of Pat Regan this weekend.

"I had met Pat on several occasions and had been greatly impressed with her dedication to tackling
gun crime.

"Pat worked tirelessly and achieved a great deal for the voluntary organisation Mothers Against
Violence, going into schools and educating young people on the dangers of joining gangs and carrying
weapons. Her death is a great
loss."xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

So sad your gone Pat 3rd Jun 2008
Terry George from Leeds relation: Friend
Pat was a big supporter of GoneTooSoon she set up a page for her son, she told me how much the site
was a great support to her family and friends. I never thought for one moment that pat would be
having her own memorial page on GoneTooSoo so suddenly and under such sad and shocking
circumstances. Rip Pat x

Thankyouu x

Pat i never knew you, only your great work and drive. I was lucky and had a daughter and never thought id ave to worry about fight's and that kind of crime. God blessed me with a grandson and although he's only three, i worry what the world will be like by the time he is becoming a teenager then a man. But thanks to the love in your heart and the drive you had maybe all your good work will make it a safer place, if there is any sence in the world. Im so so sorry for the pain you must have felt at the way your life ended you did'nt deserve that but god will wrap you in love now Pat and your work will go on. God bless those who will carry it on. xxx

PATS LEGACY

Don't think of Pat as missing,
her journey's just begun,
life holds so many chapters
this earth is only one.
Just think of Pat as resting
thru the sorrow and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort,
where there are no days and years.
Think how she must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of her as living
in the hearts of those she touched,
for nothing loved is ever lost,
and she was loved so much
just think of her as living
and try to do your best
smile when times are hard
dont give in to the test
remember all she stood for
and youts drop your gun
then the battle that seems endless
someday may be won
forget about your pride
forget about your worth
recall the Special lady
the one who gave you birth
the one who adores you
the one who tries the most
relish in her love
about capping a man dont boast
where does it get you
but caught up in a jail
keep on plodding onward
Pat would hate you to fail
youts put down your weapons
find something in your heart
help us dwell in unity
dont tear this world apart
