Dear Jane and family. How very sad I was to hear about the loss of your beloved Alan. It breaks my heart to know you now have to experience the absolute devastation of saying good bye to someone who was such a big part of his familys life. You have both been such a big part of our lives with the friendship love and support you have given our mum and us through her, for so many years.

On behalf of all of Marie and Axie's children, we send our deepest condolences as Alan moves on without those he cared for most.

I trust Paul will be one of many waiting with open arms to greet him.

Be so gentle on yourself through these coming days, months and years until you meet again.
