    Story

    DJ Booboo has been part of Ditzy Doodles life for what feels like a life time. He was her sidekick, partner in party crime!
    We celebrated so many occasions with so many families over the years, there are things we did that nobody ever knew about for amazing children.
    We also put together a special team to give life celebrations free of charge to families of children with life limiting and shortening conditions in the North West, and it was an honour and pleasure to have DJ BooBoo part of this team!
    Sadly Kevin Smart (my wonderful DJ BooBoo, my friend who was like my brother) suddenly passed away on Wednesday night (4th October) after a two day fight after having a sudden massive heart attack on Monday. Kev was only 41.

    It's going to be hard not having you by my side at events and parties, you have been an amazing sidekick, friend, brother from another mother, and god father to my boys!
    So I ask all our wonderful Party Squad families to support us and ensure we can offer support to Kev's family.

    Kev gave so much to so many. With consultation with Kev's family, I am setting up a trust fund in his memory for his first grandchild, little Lexi Mae who was born recently, and sadly Grandad BooBoo didn't quite get chance to meet this little bundle of love! We hope to share many happy memories with her as she grows up and with the funds raised give her a good start to her young adult life.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls,

    Please meet little newborn Lexi-Mae, adorable isn't she?

    This is Kevin's first grandchild, and sadly he didn't get the chance to meet his beautiful grand-daughter. With all the work Kevin did with so many families we felt it would be more fitting to set up a trust fund for Lexi Mae in his honour.

    Kevin would have been such a proud Grandad, he didn't have anything to leave behind, so we know this is the right thing to do, and have consulted his family about it, and hope we have your blessing in supporting little Lexi Mae.

    Thank you for all your support so far.

      We feel the funds would be released to Lexi-Mae in her early adulthood so she can appreciate that it has been given from good hearts in memory of her Grandad BooBoo.
