My condolences, Jeanette. My wife lost her father to the same disease, it's terrible. I hope they find a better way of helping those suffering from it soon.

All the best,
Steffen.

Hi Jeanette, The guys and I will miss Graeme at our Friday Night viewing sessions (at the Pony Club at Kenthurst). From the first time he came along, he wanted to explore the skies and the team encouraged him. We were sometimes quite amazed at his creations for his Dobsonian and other telescopes. As a retired Optometrist, I often wondered whether he should have been an engineer instead. Rest in peace Graeme, you will be missed. Phil

Having lost my father Barry to cancer 2 months ago, I can relate to how you must feel. My sympathies go out to you and your family during this troubling period.

Try to celebre his life rather than mourn his death. Remember the happy times you created together, forgive him for the disagreements. Make sure his happy legacy is passed down through your family.

I am saddened by your husband's passing.
There are few words that can help.
I wish you well and hope that you and your family can be together over Christmas.

Jeanette,
I remember fondly the day Graeme came down to Heather and my place to discuss computer programs for astronomy. Apart from that we shared histories and cancer treatments.
We all share in your loss of a gentleman and scholar.
Regards,
Andrew
