Ian, You were a great colleague and friend to me over the last 25 years. I enjoyed working for you and enjoyed your friendship afterwards. Your visits to Shirley and I with Jessica in your motorhome have always been enjoyable and entertaining. For you both to call in for a coffee and finish up staying for five days was a delight.We will miss your visits and it is very sad that we will not get to visit the Catlins with you as planned next year.
Our deepest sympathy Jessica and family and our love and thoughts are with you. all.
