Crystal blue eyes and a smile that you would never forget, he quickly became a friend of everyone he met. Ian enjoyed life to the fullest and never missed a chance to try something new. He continued to show his love of life by his amazing courage and spirit when he was ill. He was an inspiration to everyone in more ways than he will ever know. The times Ian most enjoyed was quality time with his family and friends at our summer home in Caissie Cape.
