We met Alex and Liz on a cruise to Norway in 2008 and have been friends since that happy holiday. We will miss the laughs we had together and send our deepest sympathy to Liz.

Thinking of the cans of beer we shared watching the rangers at low gardens some 20 odd years ago, thoughts are with Liz xx

We were lucky to have known Alex when we moved to Thornhill. He welcomed us as his neighbour and we shared many times chatting in his much loved garden. He shared his freshly grown veg with us and we will never forget his kindness. We’re sorry to hear of his passing and we send all our love to his wife Liz and family. Alex will be missed by everyone who knew and loved him. Mike and Lisa Lakey XXXX
