Messages of condolence

To the Milne family We were so sad to hear of Ian’s passing. It’s not that we knew him well but he directed the funeral arrangements for both our parents’ (Marie and Charles Wright) funerals . Ian was a very special man and so easy to deal with. He had the knack of making us and both our parents feel special and that he was looking after our very important family members. He was so flexible and accommodating and helped to organise mum’s cremation in Cavan when Belfast was full. Reading his book showed how much more there was to Ian and his life. He will be sorely missed. With best wishes Alan and Heather Wright
