What a loss. I cherish the hours we spent in coffee shops and good times we had.

I will never forget you my dear brother . You taught me so much in life and about life as we did steer through some difficult times together at a very young age . Rest in piece my dear brother . Say hello to mum and dad but tell them I have no plans in joining all of you just yet . That might sound cruel but my brother Alistair would of appreciated a bit of light hearted humor included in my message .
