Celebrating Ian's Life

Thank you to everyone who have sent their messages of support through all kinds of digital and analogue mediums since our final post, they really do mean a lot to us.

We will be holding Ian's funeral in private as a family but would like to invite people and the readers of this blog to a celebration of his life at a later date. This will be held on Friday 15^th May 2015 in Ian's village.

If you would like to attend the celebration and require more details, please email us at celebration@fircroft.f9.co.uk

…Second star to the right — and straight on ’til morning.

We are sad to report that Ian died peacefully late last night, Thursday 2^nd April, with Diana and his children by his side.

This will be the last post on this blog which meant so much to Ian. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts for being with him, supporting him, and allowing him to realise what a difference he made to so many lives on his epic journey through this Universe.

For the final time with love,
iDASH

Calm, comfortable and an anglepoise

It is likely Ian will not move to the hospice as a result of the infection in the ward. We feel this is actually a blessing as it has now become such a peaceful place to be with the most wonderful caring nurses. An anglepoise gives us warmth, like the red one Ian cycled all over Bristol to buy for Diana for one misguided birthday present!

We have no timelines to work to as we now sit with Ian as he sleeps calmly and comfortably. We hope and pray it is not too long now as his family sit chatting celebrating a wonderful life together reminiscing about some amazing achievements he has accomplished.

With Love,
iDASH
