We send our deepest condolences. We have so many fond memories of Cecil and Margaret. They were such kind and loving people to us and our children. They made the things and people around them better. I loved them dearly and miss both of them. I will cherish my memories of them forever.

Dear Greg
So sad to hear news of your Dad’s death. I have many fond memories of working with him and your Mum at St Paul’s and over the past years I always looked forward to seeing his smiling face and reconnecting with him (and Margaret) at the Carol Service every December. I will miss that.
Cecil worked tirelessly to extend the Kingdom of God in the world. May he now Rest In Peace and May you feel the support of many people who are with you in spirit as you navigate this huge loss and adjust to life without the physical presence of either of your parents.
Sending my love and prayers for you.
