loved life. He was also a dedicated and supportive father and husband who
always acted with integrity and grace throughout many challenging times. Ian

which stretched over 30 years and concluded as a project manager at the
Architectural and Structural Section of RCAF, A4CE, INFR6. Ian was also a
faithful member of Toast Masters International, Club Venio Dictum. He was
passionate about speaking and would always talk about past and current affairs
with fervor.
