Thank you for coming to all the rugby and football games and wanting me to play my best. My favourite memory is when we sat there after a game while you nursed a pint of mild and with a relieved look on your face, so I asked if you were okay and you said “yeah, I’ve just had a wee”

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.

Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Ivan. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
