Dad/Angus was a great lover of all things French and had vast collection of striped clothing. We discussed wearing striped Breton shirts/jumpers with Dad for his funeral and he loved this idea, so if you’d like to join us in stripes, please do so.

All our love and thoughts are with you.
Sorry to hear of Angus’ passing. I was on the Bideford Sustainability Group committee with him, and knew him as a passionate environmentalist. Both he and Marianne were lovely people, willing to work for a better future for all.
I send my condolences to his familly, as I know he will be greatly missed.

Dear Ceri, Owain and Guy,
I’m sorry I cannot be with you tomorrow but will be thinking of you all from the other side of the world and sending so much love. I have so many happy memories as a teenager at Twinell cottage and remember your Dad well from then. He would always ask how I was and take interest in my life.
So much love to you all, Rachel xxx
Au revoir uncle, you will be missed by all your family and friends. Thank you for making a difference. It was such a pleasure to catch up when we were in Westward Ho! Enjoy your next adventure as you sail away xx
