What a great day on which we went to say our goodbyes to Brian. Although there was a chill nip in the bright Spring afternoon, the sun was shining brightly and there was n't a cloud in the sky as we laid him to rest alongside his wife , Anne.
It was most humbling that a significant part of the eulogy (delivered by his son, Gavin) not only focussed on his life-long love of cycling, but that after the death of his wife he took up this interest again, specifically through his local Sustrans group. Gavin said he really loved being part of our White Peak Ranger group, being out in the countryside, helping with maintenance & signage as well as being with the friendly other rangers in our group. I feel really pleased that we were able to provide him with such pleasure at a time when life was difficult for him, following the recent death of his wife.
