Ian, you will be very missed. I never met Ian in person although we did have a wonderful meeting on Skype. I always admired his wisdom and intelligence and appreciated the information he shared. Ian was always a gentleman who enjoyed a good discussion and who was patient and never nasty with those who disagreed with his opinion. Ian was a gentleman and a scholar and I am honoured to have known him.
Ian, you were a stronghold, you were a shining beacon. I could not have had a much better friend. I will miss you here on earth but I know your spirit is now soaring free, with the others that have passed before you. You can run and sing and dance again. You can with the blink of the eye go from one place of the universe to the other. You are no longer limited to what your physical body could do. You are now truly a free man and have joined Nancy, who is joyfully dancing with you. I will think of you in fond memories, and when I shed a tear or two it is because I have missed you that moment.
i felt we had so much in common and I'll miss how you made me smile on a regular basis. I wish we could have met face to face. I know we will on the other side. Your song will forever be in our hearts! I learned so much from you! Goodbye dear friend!
Ian Kirkpatrick was a remarkable man who touched the lives of many throughout the world. Many of us who are saddened by his loss have never had the privilege of meeting him in real life. However, our interactions with him made us feel special and bonded to him in sincere friendship. He had a wonderful sense of humour and a strong sense of self. His beliefs were deeply held and had developed into an amazing tolerance. I think of Ian as a wonderful friend, father to his sons, grandfather to his grandchildren and husband to his beloved Nancy, who had unfortunately predeceased him. A sincere thanks to Ryan and Roger for sharing these last weeks with us. His memory will live on in our hearts forever. Blessed be his memory.
To Ryan and Roger and your families and all of Ian's extended family, my deepest condolences on your loss. I think we would all agree that he is no longer in any pain and I believe he would be the first to agree that wherever he is, he is in a better place than that hospital bed and in pain. I know you all are grieving now, but I also know from experience that as time passes, your grief will give way to remembrances of all of the good times with him and your hearts will heal and be at peace. Blessings on all of you.
Ian, you are truly special! Although I only knew you for a short time, I was honored to have you as a beloved friend. Some angels just leave this life, and become elevated to a greater glory. That's the way I'll always think of, and remember you.
Sincerest sympathy to all of Ian's family & dear friends. Ian was a friend on Facebook for a few years that I enjoyed talking to, seeing his enlightening posts & finding out his opinion on current events as they relate to the past. He had such a good grasp of life here on earth. I will miss him & hope his sons & family & friends learn & remember from his teachings. Keep the good memories alive for Ian always. God is good!
