I remember Ian, and brother Colin, as being among the first to welcome me as an 8 year old when I first moved to Auckland. We attended primary, intermediate and secondary schools together but I lost contact with him when he changed schools and never met up with him again. However, in this small world, I kept up with his extraordinarily successful progress in the logistics industry through his friendship with my uncle Mike Bearman. Ian is remembered as a kind and fun loving young guy. My sincere sympathies to his family and relatives. Peter Ambler
