Lorna, Brenda, Ken and Brian,
I am very saddened to hear of Ian's passing. I shared some wonderful times with Ian during the nine years that I work with him. I always enjoyed Ian's friendship and his terrific sense of humour. I will keep fond memories of some very happy times spent in his company. I will miss him but I am grateful for having the chance to know him, and I count myself fortunate for being given the opportunity in my life to spend time with a wonderful soul. My sincere condolences to all of you and to your families.
