Following the tragic passing of Ian on January 15th, we would like to use this page to collect memories of Ian. Please post your stories, photos, videos and any memories you cherish of Ian to share with his family, children and friends. His wife, Meera, would like to ensure as many people as possible share their memories of Ian for his children to know who their papa was as they grow up. Stories that show all sides of the Ian we knew and loved are welcome - from his skills in the kitchen, garden, DIY and cycling; times in Malvern, London, New York, San Francisco and beyond; his career as an architect; Ian as a child and at school; and small everyday memories of daily life.
The family have requested a small, private funeral whilst they come to terms with their loss. However, we know how dearly he’ll be missed by everyone who knew him, so would like to invite all his family and friends to join us to celebrate his life on Saturday 19 July (a day after his birthday). The venue will be confirmed closer to the time (in Richmond / Kingston) - please check back here for further details.
