Dear Jack and Amelia. My deepest sympathies for your loss. It was an honor to know your Dad, Jack, even for so short a time, and to learn from you about his amazing life. Your devotion to him and your Mum was profoundly inspiring. May your hearts be comforted by the knowledge that they are together again, and that he can play his harmonica once more!

Sincerely,
