Alan was a true gentleman, the old sort which are sadly going to pastures new. Loved the passion he had for his beautiful dog Lika and his wonderful garden. He could talk about his plants and antiques for hours, where & how he acquired them. I have some beautiful plants he gave me a couple of years ago and treasure them. Sue & Alan, a lovely couple, devoted but most of all just thoroughly nice people. I saw Sue this morning tending the stunning front garden, digging away through her heartache, the best therapy she could have. On earth she was gardening whilst in heaven Alan will be tending to heavens gardens. May he rest in peace. We will all look after Sue & Lika in his earthly absence. Daryl ❤️
