Can't tell you how gravely sad I was to hear of Ians passing. 98-2003 I was an apprentice at Elsym Burton and latermy a colleague at Pandelco under Ians guidance and friendship and can honestly say it made my working life as a young man vastly better. Thats just how he was. Wickedly funny, naturally kind, intelligent and with a real love for music and his running/cycling...just an all round wonderful fella. I and many other ex-colleagues will remember him always. Sincerest condolences to his nearest people /Dave

Heartbreaking news to hear. Ian you were such a great bloke to know and I’ve had so many fond memories and laughs while we were out on runs with the lads over the peaks. Especially of you trying to catch the little lamb. Sleep tight mate.
