It is so hard to imagine that you aren't going to be in our lives in the future. Always the man to have at a charity auction. Always kind and generous. We shared so many laughs and fun times. We were hoping for many more. Love from our family to yours, Susan, Doug, Chris, Rebecca Bamber and John Crawford

Alan, you have been a beacon of hope, humour, life, love, generosity, and goodness to me, my family, and friends. Your presence in any company was a delight! Words struggle to capture your powerful, caring presence. Rest in peace, my friend. Thank you for your fine and encouraging example to us all!

Words can’t really express the immense respect that I have for Alan, his commitment to and appreciation for longstanding business relationships, that became friendships, where he and the team at Sparkle always delivered above and beyond.

His personal willingness and ability to provide solutions and support.

His incredible generosity, sense of fun and humour, his positivity, encouragement and wisdom - inspiring...

Rest In Peace Alan Cole, thank you for all you’ve done, you will be greatly missed by all you have touched...
