"I know who holds tomorrow and I know who holds my hand..."

With empathy and prayers I extend sincere sympathy to the family during this difficult time. Draw closer to God and each other as you strive to understand the meaning of this loss.

Ever since I was a child, Ash would visit at the family home in Quinton. He was a very likeable person. It wasn't until many years later that I learned that he was related on the Morris side of the family.

May memories of him sustain you in the days ahead.

With love,
