Our heartfelt condolences to our friend Ian Bourne and family upon the passing of Ian’s father, Desmond Bourne, at the age of 79.
Desmond Bourne’s deep authoritative voice is what we immediately remember, but what causes us to smile are the memories of Desmond saying so many things that needed to be said – but that no one would say except him.

I finally re-emerged, it has been rough – thanks to everyone for your kindness. If you are interested there is a Sympathy book at the Nation in Fontabelle where I made sure to sign too.
